¹ When saying the words, “לְמַעַנְךָ אֶלֹקִים חַיִים,” “for Your sake living God,” you might offer this silent prayer: Master of the Universe, because we believe in the absolute unity of Your Name, that You alone are the living God, and there is nothing besides You, it is fitting and proper that You inscribe us in the Book of Life.—Yesod V’shoresh HaAvodah

**The Metsudah Machzor. Metsudah Publications, New York -- en (paragraph ed.):**
**And so,** grant that Your awe, Adonoy, our God, be upon all Your works,⁴ and Your dread upon all You have created; and [then] all [Your] works will fear You, and prostrate before You will be all [Your] created beings.⁵ And may they all form a single band⁶ to do Your will with a perfect heart. For we know Adonoy, our God that rulership is Yours,⁷ strength is in Your hand, might is in Your right hand and Your Name is awesome over all You have created.

footnotes:
⁴ When saying these sentences, bear in mind these words: “How long has Your great, sacred Name been desecrated among the nations as they taunt us, asking, “Where is Your God? Why doesn’t He come to your aid?” Therefore, let Your awe be upon all Your works, Your dread upon all You have created, so they may all know there is no God but You, and thus will Your Name be exalted and sanctified even among the nations.—Yesod V’Shoresh HaAvodah
⁵ The ultimate sanctification of Hashem’s great and Holy Name over the nation of Yisrael will have a tremendous impact on all peoples and will result in their spiritual uplifting for they will be inspired to fear Hashem, and subject themselves to His rule.—R’ Moshe Chaim Luzzato, (Yalkut Yedeos HaEmes)
⁶ The Divine inspiration of Hashem, Who is One, the Unity par excellence, can only be experienced by an entity, united, in a single cause. The nation of Yisrael, though composed of individuals, is nevertheless a unit, bound by its singular belief in Hashem and Torah. Thus we are referred to as גוֹי אֶחָד בָּאָרֶץ one nation in the land, and as such, we are capable of receiving and retaining the Divine influence. The nations of the world however are many, and the diversity within each nation is great. In their present status they are incapable of experiencing the Divine inspiration. We pray, therefore, for the time when they will attach themselves to the nation of Yisrael, and recognize the superiority of our moral and spiritual values. Then, they will attain a level of unity and be capable of receiving a degree of Divine enlightenment. This is the intent of our prayer, “and may they all form a single band.”—R’ Moshe Chaim Luzzato, Ibid.
⁷ Those who understand and recognize the mysterious ways in which Hashem rules the world, realize that despite superficial events that seem to indicate otherwise, Hashem’s rule is indisputable and all powerful. Thus we declare our firm belief in His rulership and His strength.—R’ Moshe Chaim Luzzato, Ibid

**וּבְכֵן** תֵּן כָּבוֹד יְהֹוָה לְעַמֶּֽךָ תְּהִלָּה לִירֵאֶֽיךָ וְתִקְוָה טוֹבָה לְדוֹרְשֶֽׁיךָ וּפִתְחוֹן פֶּה לַמְיַחֲלִים לָךְ. שִׂמְחָה לְאַרְצֶֽךָ וְשָׂשׂוֹן לְעִירֶֽךָ וּצְמִיחַת קֶֽרֶן לְדָוִד עַבְדֶּֽךָ וַעֲרִיכַת נֵר לְבֶן־יִשַׁי מְשִׁיחֶֽךָ בִּמְהֵרָה בְיָמֵֽינוּ:

**The Metsudah Machzor. Metsudah Publications, New York -- en (paragraph ed.):**
**And so,** grant honor, Adonoy, to Your people,⁸ praise to those who fear You, good hope to those who seek You confident speech to those who yearn for You, joy to Your land, gladness to Your city,⁹ flourishing of pride to Dovid, Your servant¹⁰ and an array of light to the son of Yishai, Your anointed, speedily in our days.

footnotes:
⁸ Despite our status as a chosen and holy people, only when the entire world reaches its ultimate perfection, will we achieve our ultimate goal. Thus only after Hashem’s kingdom is revealed in the world, and good triumphs over evil, will we reach our maximum potential and thereby bask in His glory. This is our prayer, “grant honor, Almighty, to Your people.”—R. Moshe Chaim Luzzato, Ibid.
⁹ The only setting for this glorious fulfillment is in the Holy Land—there in the chosen land, will the chosen people experience its true spiritual fulfillment, under the leadership of the king, a descendant of the chosen house of royalty, the house of Dovid.
¹⁰ The literal translation of קֶרֶן is horn, but it is often translated pride because the horn is the pride of the animal.

footnotes:
¹¹ According to Pri Tzadik, the righteous are those who serve Hashem with meticulous observance of Torah and Mitzvos even without experiencing the inner joy and radiance of serving Him. They will therefore be privileged to see and rejoice in the time to come.
¹² The upright are those whose hearts are filled with joy at serving their Creator through the fulfillment of Torah and Mitzvos. They will therefore be jubilant at the revelation of Hashem’s kingdom.—Pri Tzadik
¹³ The pious are those whose attachment to Hashem is so great that they serve Him in ways which are even beyond and above the precisely ordained commands of the Torah. They will be privileged to exult in joyous song at the time to come.
¹⁴ The terms, injustice, all wickedness and rule of evil refer to Amalek, the archenemy of the Jewish people and of Hashem. Its name and memory will ultimately be obliterated from the earth.—R’ Moshe Chaim Luzzato

footnotes:
¹⁶ “When is Hashem exalted through justice?” The Talmud answers, “He is exalted during the ten days from Rosh Hashana until Yom Kippur.”—Berachos 12b
¹⁷ When saying “the King, the Holy One” bear in mind, that it is impossible for a human being to conceive or imagine His holiness.

²³ In the Torah, (Vayikra 23:24) Rosh Hashana is described with the words יִהְיֶה לָכֶם שַׁבָּתו‍ֹן זִכְרו‍ֹן תְּרוּעָה. We are thus taught that it is both a day of זִכָּרו‍ֹן, remembrance, and תְּרוּעָה, a day of sounding the teruah. Rav S.R. Hirsch writes that both terms are addressed to us. We are told that we must stop and thoughtfully reexamine the paths we have followed, just as our Creator remembers us, and examines our past conduct. With the blast of the shofar we are summoned to break with our past errors and to abandon everything in our lives that does not meet with Hashem’s favor.

**But because** of our sins, we were exiled from our land, and driven far away from our soil; and we are unable, and to perform our obligatory offerings in Your chosen House, in the great and holy House upon which Your Name is proclaimed, because of the hand [of violence] that was sent against Your Sanctuary. May it be Your will Adonoy, our God and God of our fathers, merciful King, to once again have compassion on us and on Your Sanctuary in Your abundant mercy; and rebuild it soon and greatly enhance its glory. Our Father, our King! reveal the glory of Your Kingship upon us soon, appear and be uplifted over us before the eyes of all living things. Bring near our scattered [people] from among the nations, and gather our dispersed from the ends of the earth. Bring us to Tziyon, Your city, with joyous song,— to Yerushalayim, House of Your Sanctuary, with everlasting joy. And there we will offer before You our obligatory sacrifices— the daily [burnt] offerings in their order, and the Musaf offerings according to their rule. And the Musaf offerings of this Day of Remembrance we will prepare and bring before You with love according to the command of Your will; as You wrote for us in Your Torah, through the hands of Moshe, Your servant, from the mouth of Your glory, as it is said:

**The Metsudah Machzor. Metsudah Publications, New York -- en (paragraph ed.):**
And in Your holy words it is written: “For the kingship is Adonoy’s, and He rules over nations.”²⁸ And it is said: “Adonoy has begun His reign, He has clothed Himself in majesty; Adonoy has clothed Himself, He has girded Himself with strength. He has also firmly established the world so that it cannot be moved.”²⁹ And it is said: “Lift up your heads,—gates, and be uplifted entranceways to eternity, so that the King of Glory may enter. Who is this King of Glory? Adonoy, strong and mighty; Adonoy, the Mighty One in battle. Lift up your heads,—gates, and lift up entranceways to eternity,³⁰ so that the King of Glory may enter. Who is He, this King of Glory? Adonoy Tzevaos, He is the King of Glory, Selah.”³¹

footnotes:
²⁸ Tehillim 22:29. The word king signifies one whose leadership is accepted willingly by his people. In referring to the nation of Yisrael which willingly accepted the kingship of Hashem, the Psalmist says, “For the kingship is Adonoy’s.” A ruler, however, might be one who imposes his rule without consent of the people. Therefore, regarding the other nations who do not willingly submit to His Kingship, a Psalmist says, “And He rules over nations.”—Gaon of Vilna
²⁹ Tehillim 93:1.
³⁰ The words וּשְׂאוּ פִּתְחֵי עו‍ֹלָם, “and lift up entranceways to eternity,” imply that the gates of the Temple will lift up voluntarily, whereas the earlier words וְהִנָשְׂאוּ פִתְחֵי עו‍ֹלָם, “and be uplifted entranceways to eternity” suggests that the gates must be uplifted against their will. The Siach Yitzchak quoting Malbim explains that initially Hashem was referred to as the King of Glory because He appeared as strong and mighty in battle, forcing the wicked to bend to His will. Therefore, the gates do not open willingly to permit the glory of Hashem to enter, and must be opened by force. Ultimately, however, the world will be so spiritually saturated that it will recognize Hashem’s greatness as the Creator of all. The gates will open by themselves to welcome Hashem, not as One mighty in vengeance but as the masterful Creator of the world.
³¹ Tehillim 24:7-10.

³² Yeshaya 44:6. According to the Kuzari, “first” is used to preclude the notion that anything existed before Him, but not to assert that He has a beginning. Similarly, “last” is used only to repudiate the idea that there is an end to His existence, not to fix a term for Him.
³³ Yeshaya 44:6.

All is revealed and known before You Adonoy, our God Who observes and looks until the end of all generations.

³⁷ These four lines are translated according to Rabbenu Shlomo of Germaza (the Rebbe of Rashi) and Avudraham.
³⁸ According to Rabbenu Shlomo of Germaza, כָּל הַמִּפְעָל refers to “all that has been done by man,” or it might also imply “all that has been done by Hashem and thus indicates that Hashem remembers all His creatures. Whereas the first part of the prayer deals with man and his actions, כָּל הַמִּפְעָל refers to all the inanimate things such as the earth and its produce.—Avudraham
³⁹ According to Avudraham these words refer to those who are yet unborn.
⁴⁰ The appointed time of remembrance in Rosh Hashana. On that day Adam was created, and on that same day Hashem judged Him for his transgression, after he ate from the tree of knowledge. According to Rabbenu Shlomo this is in accord with the Midrashim that hold the world was created on the twenty-fifth day of Elul.
⁴¹ According to Rabbenu Shlomo of Germaza, Rosh Hashana is the day on which Adam was created, (see above note 40) and according to Avudraham it is the first day of creation.

**The Metsudah Machzor. Metsudah Publications, New York -- en (paragraph ed.):**
And over countries [judgment] is pronounced, which of them is destined for the sword [war] and which for peace, which for famine and which for abundance. And on it, creatures are brought to mind, to be remembered for life or for death. Who is not considered on this day? For the remembrance of all that is formed comes before You: the dealings of man, and the decree of his fate,⁴³ and the misdeeds of man’s actions, the thoughts of man and his schemes, and the motives for the deeds of man.⁴⁴ Fortunate is the man who does not forget You, the son of man who gains strength in You. For those who seek You will never stumble, and never will they be disgraced— all who trust in You. For the remembrance of all their deeds come before You, and You examine the deeds of all of them.

⁴³ The word וּפְקוּדָתו‍ֹ has been translated according to Rabbenu Shlomo of Germaza and Avudraham.
⁴⁴ The motives for man’s deeds are the יֵצֶר טו‍ֹב, the Good Inclination, and the יֵצֶר הָרָע, the Evil Inclination.—Rabbenu Shlomo of Germaza and Avudraham

**The Metsudah Machzor. Metsudah Publications, New York -- en (paragraph ed.):**
And No’ach too, You remembered with love, and [therefore] decreed for him a promise of deliverance and compassion, when You brought the flood-waters to destroy all flesh because of the wickedness of their deeds. Therefore, his remembrance came before You, Adonoy, our God, to multiply his seed like the dust of the earth, and his descendants as the sand of the sea; as it is written in Your Torah; “And God remembered No’ach⁴⁵ and all the beasts and all the cattle that were with him in the Ark, and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters were calmed.”⁴⁶ And it is said: “And God heard their groaning cry, and God remembered His covenant with Avraham, with Yitzchak, and with Yaakov.”⁴⁷ And it is said: “I will remember My covenant with Yaakov, and also My covenant with Yitzchak, and also My covenant with Avraham, will I remember; and the land [of Yisrael] I will remember.”⁴⁸

footnotes:
⁴⁵ According to the Midrash, since there is no forgetfulness before Hashem, the words וַיִזְכֹּר אֱלֹקִים אֶת נֹחַ, imply that Hashem took cognizance of No’ach’s virtuous deeds. According to Rashi, He took special cognizance of the fact that No’ach provided for the animals in the ark for twelve months.
⁴⁶ Bereishis 8:1.
⁴⁷ Shemos 2:24. The Biblical verse deals with Hashem’s promise to redeem the children of Yisrael when they were yet enslaved in Egypt.
⁴⁸ Vayikra 26:42. This verse deals with the ultimate repentance of all Yisrael and Hashem’s promise to return them to their homeland.

**The Metsudah Machzor. Metsudah Publications, New York -- en (paragraph ed.):**
**And** by the hand of Your servants, the Prophets it is written: “Go and proclaim it in the ears of Yerushalayim, saying: thus said Adonoy, I remembered for you the kindness of your youth,⁵² the love of your bridal days,⁵³ how you followed Me into the wilderness,⁵⁴ in a land that was not cultivated.”⁵⁵ And it is said: “I will remember My covenant [which I made] with you in the days of your youth, and I will fulfill it for you as an everlasting covenant.”⁵⁶ And it is said: “Is Ephraim not My precious son, is he not a child of delight? For whenever I speak of him, I recall him even more;⁵⁷ Therefore, My innermost being is aroused for him, I will surely have compassion on him,⁵⁸ says Adonoy.”⁵⁹

footnotes:
⁵² According to Malbim “the kindness of your youth” refers to the kindness of our forefathers who accepted the Oneness of Hashem and proclaimed His Kingship to a world steeped in the worship of idols. Metsudas Dovid maintains however that “the kindness of your youth” refers to the kindness Hashem bestowed on us at the early stage of our history, when He selected Yisrael as His special, unique people.
⁵³ This refers to the love Hashem bestowed on Yisrael when He gave us the Torah at Sinai. Our Sages refer to this event as the canopy, the chupah, by which the children of Yisrael were betrothed to Him.—Malbim, Metsudas Dovid
⁵⁴ Hashem recalls the faith of His people who followed Moshe into the wilderness.—Malbim, Metsudas DovidRashi maintains that the entire verse refers to one period of time. He says that the kindness of our youth was manifested when we followed Him, i.e., His messengers, Moshe and Ahahron, into the wilderness.
⁵⁵ Yirmiyahu 2:2.
⁵⁶ Yechezkel 16:60.
⁵⁷ These words must be understood in the context of the two sentences (Yirmiyahu 31:17-18) preceding them. I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself, saying: “You have chastised me and I was chastised ... I was ashamed, I was also disgraced, because I bear the humiliation of the sins of my youth.” Thus, explains Rabbenu Shlomo of Germaza, when Hashem hears Ephraim’s words of repentance, He is moved to proclaim His Divine love for him and to recall His delight in him. Ephraim is the name by which the ten tribes of Yisrael was referred.
⁵⁸ The Almighty pledges His Divine mercy and promises to deliver them from exile.—Radak
⁵⁹ Yirmiyahu 31:19. After reciting this verse, you might offer this silent prayer: Master of the Universe, remember on this Day of Judgment, that we are Your precious and loving children. Is there another nation in the entire world that gives You such נַחַת רוּחַ, pleasure, from the fulfillment of Your sacred commandments, as we do. We therefore beseech You, our God, arouse Your mercy upon Your holy people and deliver us from this bitter exile, so that Your great and sacred Name will no longer be desecrated among the nations of the world.—Yesod Veshoresh HaAvodah

**Our God** and God of our fathers remember us favorably before You and be mindful of us for deliverance and compassion from the eternal high heavens. Remember in our behalf, Adonoy, our God, the covenant, the kindness and the oath which You swore to our father Avraham on Mount Moriah, and let there appear before You the binding with which our father Avraham bound his son Yitzchak upon the altar, and how he suppressed his compassion to do Your will with a whole heart; so may Your compassion suppress Your anger against us, and in Your great goodness turn Your fierce anger away from Your people, and from Your city, from Your land, and from Your territorial heritage. And fulfill for us Adonoy, our God the promise You made in Your Torah, through Your servant, Moshe, from the mouth of Your glory, as it is said: “I will remember for them the covenant with their forefathers whom I took out of the land of Mitzrayim, before the eyes of the nations, to be their God; I am Adonoy.”⁶⁰ For He Who remembers all forgotten things from eternity, are You, and there is no forgetfulness before the Throne of Your Glory; and the binding of Yitzchak— on behalf of his descendants— may You remember it today with compassion. Blessed are You Adonoy, Who remembers the covenant.

**You were revealed** in Your cloud of glory to Your holy people to speak to them. From the heavens, You let them hear Your voice, and revealed Yourself to them in pure clouds. So too, the entire world quivered before You,⁶¹ and the works of creation⁶² trembled before You,⁶³ when You, our King revealed Yourself upon Mount Sinai to teach Your people Torah and mitzvos. You let them hear the majestic splendor of Your voice, and Your holy words from flames of fire; amidst thunder and lightning You revealed Yourself to them, and with the sound of a shofar, You appeared to them, as it is written in Your Torah: “And it was on the third day, as morning dawned there was thunder and lightning, and a dense cloud over the mountain, and the sound of a shofar was exceedingly loud; and all the people in the camp trembled.”⁶⁴ And it is said: “And the sound of the shofar became increasingly louder;⁶⁵ Moshe spoke and God answered him by voice.”⁶⁶ And it is said: “And all the people saw the sounds⁶⁷ and the flames, and the sound of the shofar, and the mountain in smoke; and the people saw and were shaken, and stood from afar.”⁶⁸

**The Metsudah Machzor. Metsudah Publications, New York -- en (paragraph ed.):**
**Our God** and God of our fathers, sound a great shofar for our liberty and raise a banner to gather our exiles. And bring near our scattered people from among the nations, and gather our dispersed from the ends of [the] earth. Bring us to Tziyon, Your city, with joyous song,— to Yerushalayim, House of Your Sanctuary, with eternal joy. And there we will offer before You our obligatory sacrifices, as we were commanded in Your Torah, through the hands of Moshe, Your servant, from the mouth of Your glory, as it is said: “And on the day of your rejoicing, and on your appointed festivals, and on your Rosh Chodesh days, you will sound the trumpets over your burnt-offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings, and they will be a memorial for you before your God; I am Adonoy, your God.”⁸⁶ For You hear the sound of shofar, and listen to the teruah; and there is none like You. Blessed are You, Adonoy, Who hears the sound of the teruah of His people, Yisrael, with compassion.

footnotes:
⁸⁶ Bamidbar 10:10.
