Amidah: Iyun Tefillah: Shema Koleinu



The 4th of Nisan is the Yahrtzeit of Rav Yaakov Tzvi Mecklenberg, author of HaKesav Vehakabala and Iyun Tefillah (1785-1865). We ask of God that Key, “hear our voice,” despite the fact that we pray in silence. The voice mentioned here is not a voice that speaks loudly, but the inner voice behind our words; our feelings, our desires, our aspirations. We are requesting that God empower our prayer to become the instrument that will express our innermost feelings with clarity, without any distraction from this world. (Iyun Tefillah)
