כִּ֣י בִ֠רְאֹתוֹ יְלָדָ֞יו מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה יָדַ֛י בְּקִרְבּ֖וֹ יַקְדִּ֣ישֽׁוּ שְׁמִ֑י וְהִקְדִּ֙ישׁוּ֙ אֶת־קְד֣וֹשׁ יַֽעֲקֹ֔ב וְאֶת־אֱלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל יַעֲרִֽיצוּ׃
יאָ, אַז ער װעט זען זײַנע קינדער, דאָס װערק פֿון מײַנע הענט, אין זײַן מיט, װי זײ הײליקן מײַן נאָמען; װאָרום זײ װעלן הײליקן דעם הײליקן פֿון יעקבֿ, און דעם גאָט פֿון ישׂראל װעלן זײ פֿאָרכטן.

Now, this is the secret of the words said at the beginning of the Amidah prayer,517Deuteronomy 10:17; See the liturgy of the beginning of the Amidah prayer. “Blessed are you HaShem-יהו"ה, our God and God of our fathers, the God of Avraham, the God of Yitzchak and the God of Yaakov, the Great, the Mighty and the Awesome God-HaE”l HaGadol HaGibor v’HaNorah-הא״ל הגדול הגבור והנורה etc.” We clearly see, that after mentioning, “The God of Avraham, the God of Yitzchak, and the God of Yaakov,” we mention their qualities, “The Great, the Mighty and the Awesome God - HaE”l HaGadol HaGibor v’HaNorah-הא״ל הגדול הגבור והנורה.” Now, the great sign for this median quality of “Awesome-Norah-נורא” in the Chariot (Merkavah) is the verse,518Exodus 15:11 “Who is like You, strengthened in holiness, too awesome-Norah-נורא for praise, Doer of wonders!” That is, holiness-Kedushah-קדושה was given over to Yaakov, meaning that it is Yaakov who is strengthened with the Upper Holiness, as it states,519Isaiah 29:23 “They will sanctify the Holy One of Yaakov-Kedosh Yaakov-קדוש יעקב.”
