He explains the prayer's two parts: the introductory praises (10 praises corresponding to creation's 10 utterances and the 10 Commandments) and the actual blessing. Drawing from the Rokach and other commentaries, the rabbi reveals profound secrets:\nBaruch She'amar V'haya Ha'olam — Hashem spoke the world into existence (yesh me'ayin); everything was created in one utterance, then revealed gradually over time.\nBaruch Hu — The world exists to glorify Hashem's Name.\nBaruch Oseh Bereishis — Hashem renews creation every single day (present tense verbs emphasize ongoing miracles).\nBaruch Omer V'oseh — What Hashem decrees immediately happens.\nBaruch Gozer Umekayem — Decrees (even difficult ones) are fulfilled, yet Hashem sustains us through them.\nBaruch Merachem Al Ha'aretz / Al Ha'briyot — Hashem shows compassion on the earth and every creature.\nBaruch Meshaleim Sochar Tov Li're'av — Hashem rewards the righteous eternally (in the World to Come), while the wicked get their reward in this world.\nBaruch Chai La'ad V'kayam Lanetzach — Hashem was, is, and will be forever (YKVK = past, present, future).\nBaruch Podeh U'matzil — Hashem redeems and rescues from every challenge.\nBaruch Shemo — Blessed is His Name, despite being hidden.\nThe rabbi connects this to the parsha (Va'era), where Hashem reveals Himself as the Redeemer (\"Ani Hashem\") and performs miracles to prove His sovereignty. He stresses living with awe: see daily miracles (body, nature, modern survivals in Israel) as ongoing creation and love from Hashem—never let them become routine.\n_____________\nThis Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg\nDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:\nhttps://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharing\nThis episode (Ep. #45) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/76tI1XOrBfK-PjMp-DsYPvoo8EZGRPqfIP9oxC23HYU/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zN2Vi/ZDJhMmE0MjViNjFl/MWZkODkzOWUwZmJm/ZTQ5ZS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
