10. Why *Adon Olam* Comes First
from Tefilah Today Hosted by Baila Yaniv
Adon Olam doesn’t introduce the day — it reorients it. Before we speak, before we ask, this tefillah declares: Hashem ruled before anything existed. In this episode, we explore why Adon Olam is placed at the very beginning of the day — and how it offers a foundation, not just a phrase. It invites us to start from presence, not pressure. “You’re not holding the world. You’re stepping into one already held — by Hashem.”
