Mourners’ Kaddish In A Time of War and Violence

Yitgadal V’yit’kadash Shmei Rabah  

May the Great Name, through our own expanding awareness and our fuller action, lift Itself to become still higher and more holy;
 
May our names, along with all the names of all the beings in the universe, live within the Great Name;
 
May the names of all whom we can no longer touch but who have touched our hearts and lives, remain alight within our memories and in the Great Name;
 
May the names of all who have died in violence and war be kept alight in our sight and in the Great Name, with sorrow that we were not yet able to shape a world in which they would have lived.

(Cong: Amein)

May Your Great Name lift Itself 
still higher and more holy

that gives life to the Godwrestling folk 
through time and through eternity —-

Even though we cannot give You enough blessing, enough song, enough praise, enough consolation to match what we wish to lay before You –
 
And though we know that today there is no way to console You when among us some who bear Your Image in our being are slaughtering others who bear Your Image in our being.

Still we beseech that from the unity of Your Great Name flow the dissolving of our ancient and our recent traumas, into great harmony and joyful life for all who wrestle God. (Cong: Amein)

Jacob's children, the Jewish people, become B'nai Israel, the children of Israel. The name also refers to the land of Israel and the State of Israel.;  
for our cousins the children of Ishmael;
