This week’s Prophet reading—traditionally called the Haftorah—is 1 Kings 2:1–12. It accompanies the Torah portion Vayechi (Genesis 47:28–50:26).
This passage relates some of the final words of King David. Shortly before his death he admonished his son and successor Solomon to faithfully walk in the ways of God, keeping all His instructions as written in the Torah of Moses. This, he assured Solomon, would guarantee great success in all his undertakings.
