Description

Razah D'Shabbos - P38 - Essay: Petichas pnimius ha'adam beShabbos. Our ticket into the kedushah (holiness) of Shabbos. What is the essential quality of the chacham (wise person)? The trait of chochmah (wisdom) is unlimited. Our desire to understand brings us closer to Hashem. Wanting "everything!" The "me'od" (very) - it's a good word to remember in the context of Shabbos. Feeling on Shabbos that the work of the week is truly completed. "Tah shmah" (come and hear) is the learning of the six days of the week, whereas "tah chahzee" (come and see) is the higher learning of Shabbos - seeing is without limit. On Shabbos, all matters of the week can disappear from his mind. The great longing of the soul to know the truth.
