After the Modeh Ani prayer, the first action we take is to wash and raise up our hands, then to say this simple, yet deep blessing. Here, Rabbi Aaron covers some of the laws of washing hands, and talks a whole lot about Judaism’s emphasis on action, and why the hands are a key vehicle for ‘doing’ in this world.
