The Haftarah portion for Sukkot Day 1 (Zechariah 14:1-21) narrated in English by Ronald Guttman.
Questions for Discussion:
Zechariah’s beautiful vision of the day when “Adonai shall be one and God’s name one” seems to be in tension with the Shema, our twice-daily assertion that God is one.
• In what sense is God’s unity an ever-present reality, and in what sense is it aspirational? Can both be true?
• What causes you to see or experience God’s unity, and what causes you to lose that vision?
