Tefillah Summary: Week 8

מי כמוך בעל גבורות
WHO IS LIKE YOU, MASTER OF POWERFUL DEEDS

All of the so-called ‘masters of power’ in the Universe are insignificant when compared to Your infinite power, and even what they possess is only that which You give them.

ומי דומה לך
AND WHO IS SIMILAR TO YOU
Nothing is even remotely similar to You. In truth, all of the so-called ‘masters of power’ are but lifeless dust, and ever their dust exists solely by Your power.

מלך
KING
[Who can even remotely compare to You,] the King who possesses all attributes of greatness, namely Wisdom, Power, and ultimately, Your infinite Kindliness.

ממית ומחיה
WHO PUTS TO DEATH AND MAKES ALIVE
You are so mighty, but always for kindliness. With the might of death, You allow the Soul to attain its destined perfection. And with might You will make alive again, so that righteousness can rule forever more.
