continuing with our uh you know discussion of the blessings of shon es we are going to discuss the sixth blessing the blessing of uh forgiveness um as usual we'll start with explaining the simple translation and idea of the and then we'll raise a few questions or you know point out a few details okay we'll begin with um forgive us our father for we have sinned pardon us our King for we have transgressed for you are a for you God are good and forgiving or for you you are a good good and forgiving God okay blessed are you Hashem God gracious one who forgives abundantly okay now just addressing the order of the blessings we mentioned that first in the beginning of our request we ask for wisdom and understanding immediately after that we speak about chuva as we explained because once a person has understanding of what's proper so then he looks back and realizes his the mistakes of his past and so the next thing is logically to to do chuva and to for one to correct his ways once a person does chuva and corrects his wrongful ways so now it's appropriate to ask for forgiveness for his past Deeds that were not so good
