From Angels back to Humans
Throughout the year, we recite Baruch Shem Kevod Malchuso leOlam Vaed quietly after Shema Yisrael.
On Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year, when we detach from earthly desires and strive to emulate the purity of angels, we declare “Baruch Shem Kevod” aloud. This shift highlights the unique spiritual elevation we experience on Yom Kippur.
