Every Jewish Holiday begins with candle lighting. As is traditional, we light two candles, representing the yin and yang of all life. We then recite the schehecheyanu blessing, in which we give thanks for having reached this day, the first day of something wonderful. We are all thankful to be here for Barack Obama's inauguration. This is truly a historic event, and we hope that it will be the beginning of a new era of hope, peace, and prosperity.
Baruch atah adonai elohainu melech ha'olam, shehecheyanu, v'kiyimanu, v'higiyanu, la'z'man ha'zeh.
