Comfort - And Now Something Completely Different!

[We are still working on our audio quality in our new 3-camera set up. We hope to have it perfected soon. Thank you for your patience.] This Shabbat, we leave the solemn focus of last week's "Tisha B'Av" behind, and pivot to comforting contemplations. Hence, the sermon to title, "And Now For Something Completely Different ..." – we dwell upon "the finished work" of Messiah's atonement through the Haftarah of Shabbat "Nachamu" – the amazing idea, "Your warfare over, your iniquity has been "nirtzah" factored into your path forward – and God has paid in full your debt of justice" (the idiomatic meaning of "keef-lai-eem" in Isaiah 40). Shalom!
