Why is Yirmiyahu 31 the Haftara of 2nd Day Rosh Hashana? by Rav Nati Helfgot

This shiur was given during the 2013 Tanakh Study Days at Herzog College / Yeshivat Har Etzion.

Yirmiyahu 31:1-40 Haftara Second day Rosh Hashana

This shiur will examine the structure and key themes of Ch. 31, the beautiful prophecy of consolation that is found in the middle of the book of Jeremiah. We will then proceed to suggest a new insight as to why the sages of the Talmud chose this chapter to serve as the haftarah for the second day of Rosh Hashanah.
