Nach:

Michah

Parsha:

Balak

Description

The Haftarah from Parshat Balak powerfully resonates with us. It speaks to Israel's vulnerability, divine dependence, and miraculous triumphs amidst enemies while foreseeing a future free of war, and urges combating modern idolatry—especially hubris—and upholding justice, kindness, and humility as Israel's core mission.
