30 The Meaning Behind the Sequence: From Asher Yatzar to La’asok b’Divrei Torah to Asher Bachar Banu
Episode Description
In this episode, we explore the deeper meaning behind the order of the morning brachos. Why does La’asok b’Divrei Torah sit between Asher Yatzar and Asher Bachar Banu? Chazal arranged our tefilos with a deliberate and profoundly logical sequence — one that mirrors how a real relationship with Hashem is built. We move from human vulnerability, to Hashem’s healing, to a natural desire for Torah, and only then to our identity as His chosen people. This episode reveals how the siddur guides us step-by-step through that inner journey every morning.
