Core Prayers with Rabbi Ari Herzog

Understanding the Amida Prayer's First Blessing


Listen Later

The Amida prayer, a cornerstone of Jewish liturgy, opens with the powerful blessing of Birkat Ha'avot, honoring our patriarchs Avraham, Yitzchak, and Yaakov. Each blessing corresponds to these forefathers, reflecting their divine attributes—Avraham's kindness, Yitzchak's strength, and Yaakov's harmony. As we bow in humility during this sacred prayer, we acknowledge our connection to God and our heritage.
