This week’s Prophet reading—traditionally called the Haftorah—is Isaiah 61:10–63:9. It accompanies the Torah portion Nitzavim (Deuteronomy 29:9–30:20).
In this passage Isaiah proclaims that God will make righteousness spring up in the presence of all the nations, as plants spring up in a garden. Never again will Jerusalem be called Forsaken or Desolate, but will be God’s delight. In great love and mercy He will deliver His people.
