The parsha's Haftorah is taken from the book of Hoshea, a fourteen-chapter work that opens the collection of 'Trei Asar.' Jewish philosophy professor Sam Lebens walks us through significant theological questions regarding the human experience of God as violent and loving, examining the text of the Haftorah and illuminating it through both Talmudic perspectives and modern theologians.
This week's episode has been sponsored in memory of Selwyn Feinblum, Shabtai Gedalia ben Yosef Tzvi, whose shloshim was this past week.
This year the Matan Podcast is exploring the weekly Haftorah.
