On Shabbat and festivals, an extra sacrifice was offered in the Temple. Since the destruction of the Temple, we offer a gift of prayer to mark the specialness of the day: an additional service called Musaf, which consists entirely of an Amidah, a personal moment of prayer. The Amidah always contains three introductory b’rakhot and three concluding b’rakhot.

Most likely, this verse was originally inserted into the Amidah as an instructional phrase to be recited by the leader, asking the congregation to respond with “Amen” to the b’rakhot that follow. Thus it means: “When I proclaim God’s name, Adonai; you should respond by acknowledging God as well”—that is, by answering “Amen” to each b’rakhah and by responding when God’s personal name (Adonai) is mentioned: barukh hu u-varukh sh’mo (“Blessed be God and blessed be God’s name”)." }, { "type": "Commentary", "text": "GREAT, MIGHTY, AWE-INSPIRING הָאֵל הַגָּדוֹל הַגִּבּוֹר וְהַנּוֹרָא.

So much of this blessing has been about love: God’s love and kindness for all, our ancestors’ acts of love and kindness, and the redemption that will be achieved through love. To emphasize this idea, the Hebrew text places the word ahavah, “love,” as the very last word of this opening sentence." }, { "type": "MarginNote", "text": "God of Our Ancestors God can be perceived in almost infinite ways. Certainly each of our biblical ancestors experienced God differently, and the Kabbalists understood their personal stories as reflecting different understandings of the Divine. In their thinking, Abraham’s kindly love and compassion, demonstrated by his welcoming of strangers and his defense of the righteous who may have been living in Sodom, came to personify God’s love and kindness. Isaac’s binding personifies the perception of an aspect of God as awe-inspiring and as placing limits on existence. Jacob was able to achieve balance: he led a troubled life yet survived, and was able to experience joy and fulfillment at the end of his life. In Kabbalah, that balance was understood to be at the very center of the nature of the Divine. Added to these, we might imagine other human traits that are also Godly. We can picture Sarah as someone who perseveres and then appreciates her blessing and guards it carefully—emulating the God who is a protector and redeemer; Rebecca as one who takes the lead, knowing what needs to be done—the mover of history; Leah as a woman who suffers in life yet sustains a family—symbolizing the God who is with us in our suffering; and Rachel as one who has a short but passionate life—reflecting the God who loves deeply. Each of us experiences the universe and the presence of God differently. Our biblical ancestors reflect different ways of walking with God—and provide us with different models for our own journeys." } ] } }, "links": [ { "rel": "parent", "title": "Siddur Lev Shalem (Excerpts)", "href": "/siddur/lev-shalem.json" }, { "rel": "prev", "title": "Torah Service", "href": "/siddur/lev-shalem/lev-76-184-shabbat-morning-service-torah-service.json" }, { "rel": "next", "title": "The Amidah", "href": "/siddur/lev-shalem/lev-78-186-shabbat-musaf-service-the-amidah.json" } ] }
