Pesah Day 8 - a podcast by JTS

The Haftarah portion for Pesah Day 8 (Isa. 10:32–12:6) narrated in English by Ronald Guttman.
Questions for Discussion:
Isaiah’s famous and beautiful prophecy of the wolf dwelling with the lamb is part of his larger vision of messianic redemption—a world in which former enemies and predators peacefully coexist and justice reigns. Here, the “messiah” is portrayed as a sprouting twig or shoot emerging from what appears to be a dead stump—not the majority and the masses, but a small remnant with the ability to see beneath the surface of things and lead all the nations back to truth and justice.
• Are there individuals or small groups whose voices have had transformational impact?
• Do you feel empowered to be one of those voices?
• What role can each of us have in redeeming what is broken in our world?
