Lesson series
Understanding Shema & Amidah Tefillah “What are YOU really saying?
What are you saying when you are talking to your Gd?
We will journey to learn what the prayer means, what the inner meaning of what we are praising and asking for.
Prayer is a spiritual bridge between man and Gd. It is a great instrument of human generation and salvation. Rooted in faith (Ps. 121) and moral integrity (Ps. 15), it banishes fear (Ps. 23) and asks, in its noblest formulations, only the blessing of divine favor (Num. 6:24–26). Clothed in language of simple but matchless beauty, it is imbued with love and a sense of sweet connection and relationship with Gd.
