Episode description

In our opening episode of Selichot: New Apologies, we give an introduction to the selichot explaining what they are, why and when we say this fourth prayer of day. We then discuss the first Pizmon, responsively read selicha, “The End of Shabbat”. A look at the refrain, borrowed from King Solomon’s dedication of the Temple, highlights our universal mission.
