    מִי שֶׁעָנָה | The One Who Answered (Selichot: New Apologies)

    To continue to receive updates from Selichot: New Apologies, subscribe here! In this piyyut said whenever selichot are recited we ask G-d to answer our prayers just as he answered the prayers of our Biblical ancestors from Avraham to Mordechai and Esther. Fascinatingly, for many of those mentioned there is no indication in the text that they actually prayed. מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְאַבְרָהָם אָבִֽינוּ בְּהַר הַמּוֹרִיָּה הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְיִצְחָק בְּנוֹ כְּשֶׁנֶּעֱקַד עַל גַּבֵּי הַמִּזְבֵּֽחַ הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְיַעֲקֹב בְּבֵית אֵל הוּא יַעֲנֵנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְיוֹסֵף בְּבֵית הָאֲסוּרִים הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לַאֲבוֹתֵֽינוּ עַל יַם סוּף הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְמשֶׁה בְּחוֹרֵב הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְאַהֲרֹן בַּמַּחְתָּה הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְפִינְחָס בְּקוּמוֹ מִתּוֹךְ הָעֵדָה הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לִיהוֹשֻֽׁעַ בַּגִּלְגָּל הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לִשְׁמוּאֵל בַּמִּצְפָּה הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְדָוִד וּשְׁלֹמֹה בְנוֹ בִּירוּשָׁלָֽיִם הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְאֵלִיָּֽהוּ בְּהַר הַכַּרְמֶל הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לֶאֱלִישָׁע בִּירִיחוֹ הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְיוֹנָה בִמְעֵי הַדָּגָה הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְחִזְּקִיָֽהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ יְהוּדָה בְּחָלְיוֹ, הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לַחֲנַנְיָה מִישָׁאֵל וַעֲזַרְיָה בְּתוֹךְ כִּבְשַׁן הָאֵשׁ הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְדָנִיֵּאל בְּגוֹב הָאֲרָיוֹת הוּא יַעֲנֵנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְמָרְדְּכַי וְאֶסְתֵּר בְּשׁוּשַׁן הַבִּירָה הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְעֶזְרָא בַגּוֹלָה הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: מִי שֶׁעָנָה לְכָל הַצַדִּיקִים וְהַחֲסִידִים וְהַתְּמִימִים וְהַיְשָׁרִים הוּא יַעֲנֵֽנוּ: If you would like to partner with us to create more thoughtful and accessible jewish content, visit torahinmotion.org/donate, or email us at info@torahinmotion.org.
