For the sake of being different, here’s one on ?????, the bracha of ??? ???? ???? ???:
l’iluy nishmans Yehoshua ben Moshe a”h.
The word ??? is referring to a higher level of man which Hashem gives ??? to serve Him. Afterward, it uses the word ????. What is the difference between an ??? and an ????? The ??? is a higher caliber of human being. The ???? is a person who has sadly compromised the purity, the beauty, and the magnificence of his ???? because he momentarily lost sight of his incredible bigness and acted in a way that was beneath him, sullying the beauty of his ????.
When saying the words ????? ????? ????, we are asking that Hashem give us, who have sinned, the understanding to do ?????. Hashem teaches the person who has sullied his perfection to want to come back and do ?????. He will NEVER, EVER abandon us, saying, “Well, too bad on you. You did….. and that’s it! I’m not taking you back!” NEVER! Hashem provides the ???? with the ???? that he needs to be able to come back, at whatever level he’s up to, so that he can reperfect his originally perfect ????.
Any parent will tell you, that there is no greater pleasure than seeing their children love and care about each other and no greater anguish than seeing them at each others’ throats. Hashem is no different with us, His children. In this request, there is an inyan to have in mind all Jews who don’t know about Hashem, that they should somehow be touched or come to realize that there’s an emptiness in their lives and be inspired to serve Hashem.
Some people think better in broad terms of all unaffiliated Jews and some do better being more specific and having in mind those that they know. I’m afraid I can safely assume that there isn’t a block in Brooklyn, Monsey, or Lakewood that doesn’t have at least one child who isn’t currently living at their parents’ standards. By having in mind either all irreligious Jews or the children that you know who are currently not in a position to give Hashem nachas, you can be ????? the ???? of ????? ???? ????.
Doing this will give Hakadosh Baruch Hu a million times more pleasure from your ????? because He knows that you love and care about His children. And in this ????, we should be ???? to see all of Hashem’s precious children returned to Him, very soon!
