The Deeper Meaning of “Avinu Malkenu”

Elie Kaunfer discusses the deeper meaning of “Avinu Malkenu”. How does our understanding of a prayer alter once we know who wrote it? How do human relationships filter into prayers to God? We will look at the story of the writing of Avinu Malkenu – Our Father, Our King – to explore these questions.
