   Haftarot: Bereisheet

   Rabbi Mosheh Lichtenstein

   The haftara of Bereisheet provides another perspective on creation, according to which God, and not man, is at the center of creation. God's honor is provided as a reason for the redemption of Am Yisrael, and the prophet explains how the fear and awe of God relate to the nation's punishment. The haftara describes the redemption as a renewed creation.
