Quotation_auto_tanakh zu Jeschijahu 44:6

You have always been the Help²⁶The word help indicates that the recipient also participated in his rescue, whereas the words shield and deliverer indicate that the rescue was made without any help from the rescued party. Our fathers who were righteous, participated in their rescue, and God “helped” them. Since we are not that righteous, God shields and delivers us even though we have no merit.—Siach Yitzchok of our fathers; a Shield and a Deliverer to their children after them in every generation. The heights of the universe is Your habitation, and Your judgments and Your righteousness [reach] to the ends of the earth.²⁷Alternatively: “Affect mankind to the end of earthly time.”—Avudraham Fortunate is man who heeds Your commandments; and takes Your Torah and Your word to his heart.²⁸Your Torah” means the basic concepts of the Torah itself, and “Your word” refers to ethical concepts, derived from events described in the Torah and by the Prophets.—Siach Yitzchok Truly, You are the Master of Your people and a mighty King to defend their cause. Truly, You are First and You are Last,²⁹We refer to God as First and Last only in order to preclude the notion that anything existed before Him, and to repudiate the idea that there is an end to His existence. We do not assert that He has a beginning or a fixed term.—Kuzari and we have no king, redeemer, or deliverer besides You. You redeemed us from Egypt. Adonoy, our God, You liberated us from the house of bondage. You slew all their firstborn, and You redeemed Your firstborn,.³⁰See Exodus 4:22. You split the Sea of Reeds, and You drowned the wicked. You caused the beloved ones to pass through, while the waters covered their enemies; not one of them remained. Because of this, the beloved ones praised and exalted the Almighty; and the beloved ones offered hymns, songs, and praises, blessings and thanksgiving to the King, the Almighty, [Who is] living and enduring. (He is) exalted and uplifted, great and awesome; He humbles the haughty and raises the lowly.³¹God humbled the Egyptians who were haughty and raised high the Jews who had been lowly captives in Egypt. He frees the captives and redeems the humble, helps the impoverished,³²God also helps those who are spiritually impoverished.—Rabbi Yehuda ben Yakar and He answers His people when they cry out to Him.

You are Adonoy, our God, in heaven and on earth, and in the highest heavens. In truth, You are First,¹³We refer to God as “First” to preclude the notion that anything existed before Him, but not to assert that He has a beginning.—Kuzari and You are Last.¹⁴Similarly, “Last” is used only to repudiate the idea that there is an end to His existence, not to fix a term for Him.—Kuzari And besides You there is no God. Gather the ones who hope in You from the four corners of the earth. Let all mankind recognize and know that You alone are the God¹⁵Elohim is a descriptive term which signifies God as ruler or judge.—Kuzari of all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them. Who is there among all Your handiwork, among the heavenly or earthly creatures, that can say to You, “What are You doing?” Our father in Heaven, deal graciously and kindly with us for the sake of Your great name which is called upon us¹⁶The Jewish people are called “God’s People” and their name Israel, ׳שר-אל—officers of God, includes God’s Name. and fulfill for us, Adonoy, our God that which is written: ‘At that time, I will bring you in and at that time, I will gather you: for I will make you renowned and praised among all the peoples of the earth, when I bring back your captivity before your eyes,’ said Adonoy.¹⁷Zephanyah 3:20.
