Jewish Mysticism
The name and throne are not complete until [the time that] Amalek is avenged. Therefore they had to offer sacrifices and pronounce the unique name from the threshhold of the Temple Court and inward. In the time of the exile [there are] enlightened ones (maskilim) of Israel and individuals in whom is the knowledge to bless and sanctify the name in secrecy and openly; it is as if the Temple were built in their days.
