{{DISPLAYTITLE:''Baruch Adonai L'Olam'' (''Maariv'')}} |
|||
'''''Baruch Adonai L'Olam''''' is a prayer that is recited by some Jewish communities, during ''[[Maariv]]'' on weekdays immediately preceding the ''[[Amidah]]''. It contains a tapestry of 18 biblical verses, followed in most customs by a blessing titled ''Yiru Eineinu'' (''may our eyes see''). |
|||
The prayer is recited by most [[Ashkenazi]]m outside of Israel. It is recited by many Chasidim (although not by [[Chabad-Lubavitch]]). It is not recited by followers of the [[Vilna Gaon]]. In Israel, it is largely unheard of in Ashkenazic circles (both [[Nusach Ashkenaz]] and [[Nusach Sefard]]<ref>There are rumors about Chassidic Rebbis from a previous generation who came to Israel from Europe and insisted on continuing to recite it even in Israel, and the Chasidim would wait for the Rebbi to recite it. In any case, even if those rumors are true, the said Rebbis are no longer alive and today it is virtually unheard of in Israel even in Chasidic circles.</ref>), although it is recited by some of the minyanim associated with [[Machon Moreshes Ashkenaz]]. |
|||
It appears in old printings of Sephardic siddurim (including Venice and Livorno), although it has been largely dropped by Sephardic communities. However, some Moroccan communities (both in Israel and elsewhere) recite the last part of the prayer (starting from Yir'u eineinu) at ''Maariv'' at the conclusion of the Sabbath. |
|||
In the Yemenite rite and the Italian rite, it is recited in and out of Israel. |
|||
The prayer was composed during post-talmudic times when synagogues could not be built in residential areas, and when ''Maariv'' was held in open fields. Its 18 verses took the place of the 18 blessings of the Amidah. The Amidah would then be recited in full privately by participants when they returned to their homes.<ref>The JPS guide to Jewish traditions By Ronald L. Eisenberg, Jewish Publication Society, page 420</ref> |
|||
This prayer is not recited today in any community today on [[Shabbat]] and [[Jewish holidays|Yom Tov]], although historically there were communities that recited it even on Shabbat.<ref>See for example Siddur Rav Saadya Gaon.</ref> |
