TUESDAY PRAYER: HOD-SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER
READING: DAWN TUESDAY
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 4th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
THE POWER OF TORAH
Since the secrets of Torah come from a superior
source—from the great concealment
of the internality of the soul, a part of the
Creator Above—they can enter all the hearts,
even those hearts that have not reached the
extent of expanded knowledge for acquiring
a broad and deep science. And when they use
that gift of theirs—the inclination toward the
secrets of the Upper One, along with the acceptance
of their scientific weakness, which
fills them with humility, they bring a blessing
to the world and reveal, with their pure desire,
a great Light of the sages’ knowledge.
– Rav Raiah Kook, Orot HaTorah [Lights of the Torah] 10, 5, Gems of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.

17 And I will come down and speak with thee there; and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone.

CONCLUSION OF SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER.
Psalms Chapter 52 תְּהִלִּים
ז גַּם-אֵל, יִתָּצְךָ לָנֶצַח:
יַחְתְּךָ וְיִסָּחֲךָ מֵאֹהֶל; וְשֵׁרֶשְׁךָ מֵאֶרֶץ חַיִּים סֶלָה.
7 God will likewise break thee for ever, {N}
He will take thee up, and pluck thee out of thy tent, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah
