May the haftarah reader skip from one passage to another within Nevi'im (the Prophets)?
Synopsis
Skipping within a single prophetic book is permitted even between different subjects, provided the congregation is not left waiting in silence. Skipping between two separate books of Nevi'im is generally forbidden, but the Twelve Minor Prophets (Trei Asar) are treated as a single book.
