Comfort Ye, Comfort Ye: Opening Our Eyes to the Bigger Picture

What a difference a week can make! Last Shabbos was Shabbos Chazon, the height of the Three Week period of mourning. On Shabbos Chazon we read the third of the three Haftorah’s of rebuke, in which the prophet Yishayahu forewarns about the impending disaster that was about to befall the Jewish people as a result of their sins. Yet this Shabbos, only one week after Shabbos Chazon and a mere few of days after Tisha B’Av, the mood is drastically altered.
