FRIDAY PRAYER: HESED-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.
“STUDY OF TORAH”
Engaging in the wisdom of the Mishnah and
the Babylonian Talmud without allotting a
portion to the secrets and hidden wisdom of
the Torah is similar to a body sitting in the
dark, devoid of a man’s soul, the Creator’s candle
that glows within. Thus, the body is dry,
not inhaling from the source of life. This is the
meaning of what he said above, “For they are
the ones who are making the Torah dry and do
not wish to exert in the wisdom of Kabbalah.”
–Rav Chaim Vital, “Introduction of Rav Chaim Vitalto The Gate of the Introductions”, Gem 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 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.

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

CONCLUSION OF SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER.
Psalms Chapter 64 תְּהִלִּים
ז יַחְפְּשׂוּ עוֹלֹת– תַּמְנוּ, חֵפֶשׂ מְחֻפָּשׂ;
וְקֶרֶב אִישׁ, וְלֵב עָמֹק.
7 They search out iniquities, they have accomplished a diligent search; {N}
even in the inward thought of every one, and the deep heart.
