This Haftarah, Isaiah\u2019s final prophecy, presents visions of Israel in the Land, in exile,\u00a0and in an apocalyptic redemption with the rest of humanity. In the Land, many Jews, falsely convinced of their own righteousness, reject and mock those who truly fear God. These mockers sacrifice to God but otherwise act evilly and reject the calls of God\u2019s prophets. God accounts their Temple sacrifices as grave sins, deems them His enemies, and promises to kill them by bringing their worst fears upon them. In sharp contrast, the Creator of heaven and earth pays little heed to the Temple, a man-made building that cannot possibly contain Him. Instead, God cares for the lowly and poor people, and for those who fear Him.<\/p>\n

Next, Isaiah describes \u201cMother\u201d Zion, bereft of her children in exile. God will cause her to conceive and deliver new children with unheard-of speed and ease. Those who mourned Jerusalem will exult with her as He grants her peace and international renown. Zion and God deeply comfort and nourish the redeemed people.<\/p>\n

Finally, Isaiah envisions an apocalyptic vision of a \u201cnew world\u201d that God will create. Israel will endure forever, and its redemption by God has become known throughout the world. Messengers share the news with those who do not know. As He does with groups of His people, God rewards and punishes other nations depending on whether they serve Him. In Jerusalem and beyond, God slaughters the many non-Jews who reject or battle against Him. Yet many other non-Jews and nations recognize God. Just as devoted Jews bring sacrifices to God in pure vessels, these nations come to the Temple with animals bearing offerings to God- namely, the Jews exiled among them. These non-Jews prostrate in the Temple on each Sabbath and New Moon, and God appoints some of them as Priests and Levites. Upon departing the Temple, loyal Jew and non-Jews encounter the rotting corpses of God\u2019s slaughtered, highlighting the wretched alternative to their proper choice to serve Him.[2]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n
