HESED: SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 4th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot
CONTENTMENT OF THE CREATOR
The reason for the concealment of the face
from the people has been explained: it is deliberately
to give people room for labor and
engage in His work in Torah and Mitzvot out
of choice. This is because this increases the
contentment of the Creator from their work
in His Torah and Mitzvot more than His contentment
from His angels above, who have
no choice and whose work is coerced.
-“Introduction to The Study of the Ten Sefirot,” Item 80, Gems of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.
