The Rinas Chaim asks:
Why in the Bracha of Barech Aleynu do we specifically ask HaKadosh Baruch Hu to bless the Shana (year)? ??????? ???????? ?’ ?????-???? ??? ?????????
Additionally, why do we only ask for the Shana HaZos (current year)? ??????? ???????? ?’
?????-???? ??? ????????? ??????
Let us ask for a general unlimited Bracha!
The Rinas Chaim answers the above questions using the “Avnei Eliyahu” as a guide. It is called a ???????? Since there are 355 days in a non-leap year (with Cheshvan and Kislev both having months of 30). ??????? is also in the same “family as ????? (change) since a year has many different periods (hot season, cold season, wet season, dry season etc.)
So, when we say
??????? ???????? ? ?????-???? ??? ????????? ??????’
We are asking HaKadosh Baruch Hu for all the changes, and every period and season be plentiful, prosperous and good.
