We beseech You, gracious and compassionate King, remember and look to the Covenant between the divided pieces,²⁰See Genesis 15:9-21 for a complete account of this covenant with Abraham. and let the binding [upon the Altar] of the only son appear before You, and for the sake of Israel.²¹Some interpret the name “Israel” as a reference to the patriarch Jacob, who was called Israel. This prayer calls to mind the merit of all three patriarchs: Abraham, who bound his only son; Isaac, who willfully let himself be bound on the altar; and Jacob, whose entire life was one of suffering for God.—Iyun Tefilloh Our Father our King, favor us and answer us, for Your great name is called upon us. The One Who performs wonders at all times, deal with us with Your kindness. Gracious and Merciful, look and answer us in a time of distress, for deliverance is Yours, Adonoy. Our father, our King, our Refuge, do not deal with us according to our evil doings. Adonoy, remember Your mercies and kindnesses, and deliver and have pity upon us in accordance with Your abundant goodness. For we have no other God besides you, our Rock. Do not abandon²²To abandon means to leave a person to his own devices. “You know, our Father, that our own strength and intelligence are not adequate for us, so give us Your Fatherly care.”—S.R. Hirsch us, Adonoy our God. Do not be far from us, for our soul is shrunken from the sword and from captivity, from pestilence and from plague and from all distress and sorrow. Save us, for we have hoped in You, and do not put us to shame, Adonoy, our God. But cause Your countenance to shine upon us, and remember the covenant of our fathers and deliver us for Your name’s sake. Look at our troubles and hear the voice of our prayers, for You hear the prayer of every mouth.
