Get StartedExperiencing the Six Dawns of Creation (Part 4 of 6)
Making Sense Of: Morning Prayers
In this final lecture of our series, Rabbi Fohrman continues to unpack the deeper meaning of the Six Days of Creation. He suggests that the key to understanding the Six Days of Creation may lie in recognizing we are not simply talking about Six Days… but Six Dawns.
Seeing creation as a series of dawns revolutionizes not only how we think about creation, but how we think about dawn itself. And, Rabbi Fohrman suggests, the spiritual effects of this time of day on ourselves and on our prayers.
This video is based on content that originated from part 2 of a 3 part lecture series on A Tale of God's Two Names. For a more in depth understanding of these materials, be sure to listen to A Tale of Two Names: Elokim and YHVH, A Tale of Two Names: Why Were There Days of Creation? and A Tale of Two Names: From The Garden To The Flood.
