On that Day    Article


 
In Vayelech, as part of the introduction to the song of Ha’azinu, God warns the people that if they turn away from Him, He will hide His face on that day — bayom hahu: “And I will hide My face on that day, because of all the evil they have committed, when they turned to other deities” (Deuteronomy 31:18). The word for hide in this verse is actually written twice, emphasizing a double layer of hiddenness. It is explained in Chassidut that this type of double hiding is the worst of all as God is so absolutely hidden that people don’t even realize that He is hidden. It is as if He does not even exist.
