SATURDAY PRAYER: HOCHMA-SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER
READING: DAWN SATURDAY
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The MUSAF מוּסָף FOR SHABBAT: of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
ENGAGING IN THE WISDOM OF THE MISHNAH
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 Vital to The Gate of the Introductions” , Gem of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.

Psalms Chapter 69 תְּהִלִּים
ד יָגַעְתִּי בְקָרְאִי, נִחַר גְּרוֹנִי: כָּלוּ עֵינַי–מְיַחֵל, לֵאלֹהָי.
4 I am weary of my crying; my throat is dried; mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
