READING: DAWN FRIDAY

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

OBSTACLES TO BESTOWAL UPON THE CREATOR

Through the subtle pleasantness we feel
when working sincerely to Him, to please
Him, there develops within us a relative recognition
of the lowliness of these sparks of
self-love—that they are obstacles on our way
to receiving that subtle taste of bestowal upon
the Creator.

-Baal HaSulam, “The Essence of Religion and Its Purpose”, 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 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.

CLOSING OF THE STANDING PRAYER: Offering of 7 ascents after The Amidah

Blessed are you, Adonai ….

Psalms Chapter 69 תְּהִלִּים

ג  טָבַעְתִּי, בִּיוֵן מְצוּלָה–    וְאֵין מָעֳמָד;
בָּאתִי בְמַעֲמַקֵּי-מַיִם,    וְשִׁבֹּלֶת שְׁטָפָתְנִי.

3 I am sunk in deep mire, where there is no standing; {N}
I am come into deep waters, and the flood overwhelmeth me.
