Emor - a podcast by JTS

The Haftarah portion for Shabbat Emor (Ezek. 44:15-31) narrated in English by Ronald Guttman.
Questions for Discussion:
The selection here of the Zadokites, and only the Zadokites, to serve as priests in the Temple follows the prophet’s decrial of the corruption of the earlier group of priests, who led the people into idolatry. Now the Zadokites are chosen, and strict rules regarding their functioning are emphasized.
• How does corruption of religious leadership manifest in our world today?
• What safeguards and restrictions can help religious leaders remain true to their mission?

JTS wishes to acknowledge the generosity of the Jewish Publication Society for allowing us to use their translation.
