Introducing Rabbeinu Shmuel HaKohen of Lotharingia (לותיר), who was murdered al kiddush Hashem in Mainz on the 3rd of Sivan, 1096. This episode serves as an introduction to the Selicha Malachei Rachamim, focusing on how to understand the phrase itself through the lens of Rabbeinu Yehuda b”r Yakar. We also address "Barchuni L’shalom", "Bamarom Yelamdu", and other similar expressions with a different approach. The Selicha itself, bez”H, will be discussed next week.
