From Tefillah Outlined by Rabbi Moshe Rothman
April 26, 2026 · 44 min · Episode 145
About this episode
The episode explains the significance of the prayer 'אתה חוננתנו' and the concept of 'הבדלה בתפילה', focusing on the transition from Shabbat to the weekday.
Explanation of אתה חוננתנו and origins of הבדלה בתפילה, highlighting the import of not recognizing the fact that שבת was a gift or that now it's the weekday, but precisely the transition and demarcation between the significance of the past and the future. It is with this knowledge we can impact and take the lessons of שבת into the week.
