FRIDAY PRAYER: HOD-SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER

READING: DAWN FRIDAY

SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 13th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh ( שמנה עשרה‎ ) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.

“A CREATURE”

It is a prevailing law that man himself is called
“a creature,” meaning he alone. Other than
him it is already the Holy Divinity. It follows
that when he is praying for his contemporaries,
it is considered that he is praying for
the Holy Divinity, who is in exile and in need
of all the salvations. That is the meaning of
eternality, and particularly so can the Light of
Mercy be revealed.

–Rabash, Steps of the Ladder, “Flee, My Beloved” , Gems of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.

TZADIKIM צדיקים PRAYER FOR THE OLD RIGHTEOUS

Show compassion Adonai, our God, for the righteous, for the pious, for the elders of Your people, the House of Israel, and to the remnant of their sages, and to righteous converts, and to us. And give a good reward to all who truly trust in Your name. And let our lot be with them forever, that we will be proud that we have put our trust in you. Blessed are You, Adonai, who is the support and trust for the righteous.

עַל הַצַּדִּיקִים וְעַל הַחֲסִידִים.

וְעַל זִקְנֵי עַמְּךָ בֵּית יִשרָאֵל.

וְעַל פְּלֵיטַת סופְרֵיהֶם.

וְעַל גֵּרֵי הַצֶּדֶק. וְעָלֵינוּ.

יֶהֱמוּ רַחֲמֶיךָ ה’ אֱלהֵינוּ.

וְתֵן שכָר טוב לְכָל הַבּוטְחִים בְּשִׁמְךָ בֶּאֱמֶת.

וְשים חֶלְקֵנוּ עִמָּהֶם לְעולָם וְלא נֵבושׁ כִּי בְךָ בָטָחְנוּ.

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה ה’, מִשְׁעָן וּמִבְטָח לַצַּדִּיקִים:

FOR UNITY, PURIFICATION OF SOULS, AND ADHESION WITH THE CREATOR, OUR GOD.

Blessed are you, Adonai ….
