WEDNESDAY PRAYER: YESOD-SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER
READING: DAWN WEDNESDAY
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 7th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
THE LANGUAGE OF THE ZOHAR
The language of The Zohar calls the Mitzvot
[commandments] in the Torah 613 deposits.
However, it is also called 613 suggestions. The
difference between them is that everything
has anterior and posterior. The preparation
for something is called “posterior,” and the
attainment something is called “anterior.”
Accordingly, Torah and Mitzvot have the
aspect of doing and the aspect of hearing, as
our sages wrote (Shabbat 88), “Who carry out
His word, hearing the voice of His word,” doing
first and hearing afterward. The Mitzvot are
called 613 suggestions, and they are considered
“posterior,” and when rewarded with hearing
the voice of His word, the 613 Mitzvot become
deposits, from the term “deposit,” since there
are 613 Mitzvot, and in each Mitzva, Light is
deposited from a specific degree, corresponding
to a specific organ of the 613 organs and
tendons of the soul and of the body.
