3rd Berachah of the Amidah: Kedushas ha'Shem (Sanctity of the Name) Exploration Part 2
Show Notes

In tonight's tefilah shiur (12/28/20 at YBT) we decided that in order to better understand the berachah of Atoh Kadosh, it would be prudent to look into the quintessential expression of kedushah - namely, the kedushah! Specifically, we set out to familiarize ourselves with the pesukim in Yeshayahu 6:1-4, which is the source of the text of the kedushah in the amidah and in the first berachah of Krias Shema. We clung fast to the Radak as our guide through these deep metaphysical waters, and although there is a lot we didn't understand, we did walk away with a rudimentary understanding of the source text of the kedushah. Next week we'll return to the analysis we began in Part 1.
