Parashas Eikev · Passuk 10:17
For the ETERNAL your God is God supreme and Sovereign supreme,eGod supreme and Sovereign supreme Lit. “the God of gods and the Sovereign of sovereigns.” the great, the mighty, and the awesome God, who shows no favor and takes no bribe,
Torah Temimah points to Yoma 69b.
TT lemma: הגבור והנורא (unit 2 of 2).
English: “The great, mighty, and awesome.” Jeremiah came and said: Foreigners are dancing in His sanctuary — where are His awesome deeds? — and did not say “awesome.” In the prayer of Chananel it says “the great, the mighty”; Jeremiah omitted “awesome.” Daniel came and said: Foreigners are enslaving His children — where are His mighty deeds? — and did not say “mighty.” The Men of the Great Assembly said: On the contrary, these are His mighty deeds, that He restrains His anger toward the wicked; and His awesome deeds, for without His awe, how could one nation survive among the nations?
Custom (Anshei Knesset HaGedolah restore “haGibbor vehaNora”)
Divine might and awe are redefined after the churban as self-restraint and the survival of Israel among the nations.
