Dayenu: It would’ve been enough!


Psalm 107:1 (NKJV)
1 Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.

The Jews have a word DAYENU that means, “It would’ve been enough,” that they sing during Passover. As they remember the FAITHFULNESS of God they sing,

“If God had delivered us out of Egypt, but had not parted the Red Sea… DAYENU.”

“If God had parted the Red Sea, but had not fed us manna in the wilderness… DAYENU.”

“If God had fed us manna in the wilderness, but had not led us to Sinai… DAYENU.”

“If God had led us to Sinai, but did not give us the Tora… DAYENU.”

“If God have us the Tora, but did not give us the Promise Land… DAYENU.”

“If God gave us the Promise Land, but did not give us the Temple… DAYENU.”

… and I would add, “If God gave us His Son to die for our sins and give us His righteousness… DAYENU (It would’ve been enough!!) Yet God continues to pour out His blessings and we should be THANKFUL~

Let us give thanks to the Lord for He is Good. His LOVE endures FOREVER!
