God s self-introduction to Moses atop Mount Sinai does indeed conclude with the image of punishment throughout the generations but begins with God merciful and gracious, the imagery that finds its way into rabbinic liturgy and lore as solely the God of grace and compassion, pardon and love.To arrive at this selective perception of biblical tradition, the Rabbis of the Talmud deliberately misread the biblical text, and then fashioned a myth of God who dresses up as a leader of prayer and promises pardon if Israel will only repeat these merciful attributes as part of its prayer ritual on that day. Ever since, the Thirteen Attributes as the list comes to be known becomes central to Jewish prayer, accompanying the liturgy for holidays generally, and framing the opening and closing services of the holiest day in the Jewish year, Yom Kippur, the Day of Judgment itself.In this seventh volume in the Prayers of Awe Series, contributors men and women, rabbis and laypeople, scholars and artists from across the spectrum of Jewish life, and representing the US, Israel, the UK, Germany, France, Canada, and Australia chart the importance of these Thirteen Attributes of God.
