The Names of God in Judaism in 10 Minutes

What's in a name? When it comes to God — everything. In this episode, we explore the many names of the Divine in Judaism — from Adonai and Elohim to Shaddai, HaShem, and the mysterious four-letter Tetragrammaton that can't even be spoken aloud. Each name reveals a different face of the Infinite: mercy and justice, creation and compassion, power and presence. We'll uncover why Jewish tradition guards these names so carefully, how they shape prayer and theology, and why even saying "HaShem" — "The Name" — is its own act of reverence. The Names of God isn't just about language; it's about relationship — the idea that the more we learn to name the Divine, the closer we come to hearing the echoes of the One beyond all names.
