The Haftorah of Va’etchanan – Isaiah 40:1-26

One calls: ‘Prepare the way for God in the wilderness, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.  Every valley will be lifted up, and every mountain and hill made low; the crooked will become level, and the rough places a plain.’  One says: ‘What shall I shout?’  ‘Shout that mankind is grass.’  

Like a shepherd Hashem will tend his flock and gather the lambs. Kindness like blossoms.

Raise your voice.  The nations are a drop from the bucket. 

Who has measured the waters?
