A Vision for the Ages: The Haftorah of Shavuot
Why Ezekiel’s vision of the “divine chariot” is the chosen haftorah reading on Shavuos, when it would appear that other scriptural passages that refer directly to the giving of the Torah would make a more appropriate choice, inasmuch as Ezekiel makes no such reference at all! (Based on Likkutei Sichos, vol. 33, p. 18.)

To: Rabbi New
I express my most humbliest appreciation for delivering the message, "A Vision for the Ages;" The Haftorah of Shavout. This evening I needed to express the depth of my love to G-d in a very meaningful act of worship and hearing your message brought revelation I had considered for many years without understanding; some old, much new knowledge. This evening you opened the eyes of my soul thus enabling me to release, renew, and connect to our G-d withholding nothing.
Thank you.
