Shimush Pesukim ECLECTIC TORAH COMPILATIONS PRESENTS SSHHIIMMUUSSHH PPEESSUUKKIIMM A Comprehensive Index to the Liturgical and Ceremonial Usages of Biblical Verses and Passages Second Edition Compiled and © 2013 Reuven Brauner, Raanana, Israel [email protected] www.613etc.com Cover Designs in this series by Avromie Brauner - [email protected] SSHHIIMMUUSSHH PEESUUKKIIMM INDEX OF LITURGICAL AND CEREMONIAL USES OF BIBLICAL VERSES AND PASSAGES LINKING TORAH TO TEFILLAH The intention of this work is to provide an extensive index showing where Biblical verses and chapters have been employed throughout Jewish liturgy and ceremonial practices. Beginning with the Scriptural reference the student and scholar can now trace how a verse, phrase, passage or section from the Torah, Prophets and Writings has been used, in whole or part, in our common and not-so-common prayers, public Torah and Haftara readings, and our many other rites and blessings. Our Sages' selection of a particular verse or passage for prayer was surely never random, but was chosen because it was deemed the absolutely most perfect expression of the specific religious and spiritual message or emotion required for that unique time, event, circumstance or ceremony. In this regard, this index should help facilitate a better understanding of their choices by making more evident the greater Biblical context wherein which that particular verse or passage resides. WHAT IS COVERED HEREIN This work covers verses or portions thereof from each of the three daily Prayers, the Shabbos, Yom Tov and Yomim Noraim prayers and the Musafim, verses recited when putting on the Tallis and Tefillin, Seder Korbonos (order of the offerings), Tachanun (including Viduy and Nifilas Appayim), verses said corresponding to the first and last letter of a person's name with alternatives as added to his Amidah as per Sefer Kitzur Hashlah, verses said when the Torah is taken from or returned to the ark, all Public Torah and Haftara readings in accordance with the common Ashkenazi, Sephardi and Yemenite (Teimoni) customs, Shir Shel Yom (Psalm of the Day) including those for the Holidays and other special days in accordance with the custom of the Vilna Gaon (Gra) and as accepted by Ashkenazim in Eretz Yisroel, as well as those found in Dr. Seligmann Baer's Siddur Avodas Yisroel (AY), the Ma'amodos for each day of the week, the Six Zechiros (things a person must always remember), the Ten Commandments, Psalms said on each Sabbath corresponding to that week's Sidra in accordance with Siddur Avodas Yisroel, Birkas Hamozone (Grace after Meals), Eishes 1 SSHHIIMMUUSSHH PEESUUKKIIMM INDEX OF LITURGICAL AND CEREMONIAL USES OF BIBLICAL VERSES AND PASSAGES Chayil, Seudah Shelishis (the third meal on the Sabbath), Pirkei Ovos (mostly fragments), Havdala and verses of blessing said on Motzoei Shabbos, particularly those in the collection beginning with the words Viyiten Lechoh and Ribbon HaOlamim, Kiddush Levonah (blessing of the New Moon), Krias Shema Al Hamitah (at bedtime), Hallel, the Five Megillahs, most of the various Selichos including Viduy, many of the prayers of Rosh Hashannah and Yom Kippur, Seder Tashlich of Rosh Hashanna, Seder Kapporos before Yom Kippur, Tefilah Zakkah, the Ushpizin of Succos, the Yehi Rotzon before taking the Lulav and Esrog, Seder Hoshannos, Attoh Horaisoh of Simchas Torah, the Pesach/Passover Hagaddah (mostly fragments), Seder Sefiras Ha'omer, Perek Shirah, Seder Hatavas Chalom (order of making good a bad dream), prayers said on Yom Kippur Koton, Seder Bris Miloh (circumcision), Seder Pidyon Haben (redeeming the firstborn son), random blessings upon seeing unusual things, Psalms for the ill in accordance with the Chasam Sofer (CS) and Siddur Sfas Emes [Heidenheim] (SE), Tziduk Hadin, passages customarily said at the cemetery in Eretz Yisroel, and after learning Mishnayos for the deceased, and verses added by some to the traditional Yizkor service. It should be noted that collections of verses are particularly found in prayers known as Hodu, Yehi Kovod, U'voh Letzion, and Viyiten Lechoh. WHAT IS NOT COVERED HEREIN This work does not cover Shabbos and Motzoei Shabbos Zemiros, groupings of verses recited on Motzoei Shabbos including Pisukei Eliyohu Hanovi, verses of Three Words, eleven verses beginning with the letter Nun, ten verses of the Ramban, three verses of Rabbeinu Yehuda Hachosid, seven verses from Isaiah beginning and ending with the letter Chof, prayers from the Zohar, Tikun Chatzos (including Tikun Rochel and Tikun Leah), Shirei Hayichud and many of the Selichos which contain mostly fragments of verses, alternative Psalms for the ill, Psalms recited during a drought, and the plethora of different Piyyutim such as Yotzros, Ofanim, Zulos, Siluk, Krovetz for Purim, Musafim, etc. As a rule, this work also does not include those verses from where a single word or a small handful of words are used in the Tefillah. 2 SSHHIIMMUUSSHH PEESUUKKIIMM INDEX OF LITURGICAL AND CEREMONIAL USES OF BIBLICAL VERSES AND PASSAGES FINAL WORD It was beyond the scope of this current edition to cover all provincial customs which have evolved among Jews over the centuries, many of which are still in current use; although I have attempted to include a great number of variations. Undoubtedly, there are numerous local customs which are absent herein, such as alternatives in Haftara readings as in the Italian and Romanian rites, the variants in Minhag Ashkenaz, particularly the hallowed customs of Frankfurt am Main, the many Sephardic prayers for special occasions such as Chanukas Habayis or Zeved Habas, etc., prayers which have been adopted by all the various Chassidic courts, and so forth. Still, readers are encouraged to inform me of key omissions and errors for future editions which may include the full verses and usages in Hebrew. Finally, in preparing this work, I found it most curious that all the books of Tanach are represented in our liturgy with the singular exception of the book of Nachum.

  • The Difference Between Blessing (Bracha) and Prayer (Tefilah)
    1 The Difference between Blessing (bracha) and Prayer (tefilah) What is a Bracha? On the most basic level, a bracha is a means of recognizing the good that God has given to us. As the Talmud2 states, the entire world belongs to God, who created everything, and partaking in His creation without consent would be tantamount to stealing. When we acknowledge that our food comes from God – i.e. we say a bracha – God grants us permission to partake in the world's pleasures. This fulfills the purpose of existence: To recognize God and come close to Him. Once we have been satiated, we again bless God, expressing our appreciation for what He has given us.3 So, first and foremost, a bracha is a "please" and a "thank you" to the Creator for the sustenance and pleasure He has bestowed upon us. The Midrash4 relates that Abraham's tent was pitched in the middle of an intercity highway, and open on all four sides so that any traveler was welcome to a royal feast. Inevitably, at the end of the meal, the grateful guests would want to thank Abraham. "It's not me who you should be thanking," Abraham replied. "God provides our food and sustains us moment by moment. To Him we should give thanks!" Those who balked at the idea of thanking God were offered an alternative: Pay full price for the meal. Considering the high price for a fabulous meal in the desert, Abraham succeeded in inspiring even the skeptics to "give God a try." Source of All Blessing Yet the essence of a bracha goes beyond mere manners.

  • 4Q521 and What It Might Mean for Q 3–7
    Chapter 20 4Q521 and What It Might Mean for Q 3–7 Gaye Strathearn am personally grateful for S. Kent Brown. He was a commit- I tee member for my master’s thesis, in which I examined 4Q521. Since that time he has been a wonderful colleague who has always encouraged me in my academic pursuits. The relationship between the Dead Sea Scrolls and Christian- ity has fueled the imagination of both scholar and layperson since their discovery in 1947. Were the early Christians aware of the com- munity at Qumran and their texts? Did these groups interact in any way? Was the Qumran community the source for nascent Chris- tianity, as some popular and scholarly sources have intimated,¹ or was it simply a parallel community? One Qumran fragment that 1. For an example from the popular press, see Richard N. Ostling, “Is Jesus in the Dead Sea Scrolls?” Time Magazine, 21 September 1992, 56–57. See also the claim that the scrolls are “the earliest Christian records” in the popular novel by Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code (New York: Doubleday, 2003), 245.

  • Psalm 149:1-9 the Saints Victorious Psalm 149 Picks
    Psalm 149:1-9 The Saints Victorious Psalm 149 picks up where Psalm 148 left off in praise to the Lord who “has raised up for his people a horn” (Ps 148:14). The psalmist develops the arc of salvation history from creation to judgment. The invitation to praise goes out to all the world and ends in judgment against the nations, peoples, kings, and nobles that refuse to praise the name of the Lord. Psalm 149 celebrates the triumph of all those who have put their trust in God’s redemptive love. These are the Lord’s faithful people, the saints, God’s holy ones (Ps 149:1, 5, 9), who “have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all” (Heb 10:10). For today’s believer living between the Hallelujahs means living between the advents. The first advent was the coming of the Messiah, the Suffering Servant, who was “led like a lamb to the slaughter” (Isa 53:7). The second advent will be the return of the Messiah in victory. He is the one who is called “Faithful and True,” the “King of kings and Lord of lords” (Rev 19:11,16). Psalm 149 looks forward to the day of final judgment when the Lord will judge the nations with justice and righteousness. This eschatological psalm calls the saints to sing a new song today in anticipation of the Lord’s ultimate victory tomorrow. Psalm 149 celebrates the final judgment that will put all things right and put an end to evil once and for all.

  • The Book of Joel
    Charles Savelle Center Point Bible Institute 1 THE BOOK OF JOEL Message: The message to Joel is fairly straightforward. Basically, it is that, “The Day of the Lord is coming to bring judgment for God’s enemies and restoration for God’s people.” Joel sets his message up by pointing to a literal locust plague which he poetically morphs into a eschatological Day of the Lord. Or as Finley puts it, “The prophecy of Joel can be compared to two wheels turning on an axle. The wheels are history and eschatology, while the axle is the day of the Lord.”1 Author: According to 1:1, the human author of the prophecy was Joel son of Pethuel. Joel means “Yahweh is God.” The name was fairly popular and there are eleven to fourteen men who bear this designation in the Old Testament depending on how you count them. The references to “Zion” and “the house of the Lord” (1:9, 13–14; 2:15–17, 23, 32; 3:1, 5–6, 16–17, 20–21) might indicate that the prophet was a resident of Jerusalem. References to the priesthood (1:13–14; 2:17) might indicate that Joel was a priest. Nothing is known about his father Pethual. Recipients: The identification of the original recipients is tied closely to the issue of dating. While most would hold that the oracle was written to Judah, dating affects whether we are referring to pre-exilic or exilic Judah. Since an early date seems more likely, the original recipients are likely pre-exilic Israel.

  • Psalms of Praise: “Pesukei Dezimra ”
    Dr. Yael Ziegler Pardes The Psalms 1 Psalms of Praise: “Pesukei DeZimra” 1) Shabbat 118b אמר רבי יוסי: יהא חלקי מגומרי הלל בכל יום. איני? והאמר מר: הקורא הלל בכל יום - הרי זה מחרף ומגדף! - כי קאמרינן - בפסוקי דזמרא R. Yosi said: May my portion be with those who complete the Hallel every day. Is that so? Did not the master teach: “Whoever recites the Hallel every day, he is blaspheming and scoffing?” [R. Yosi explained:] When I said it, it was regarding Pesukei DeZimra. Rashi Shabbat 118b הרי זה מחרף ומגדף - שנביאים הראשונים תיקנו לומר בפרקים לשבח והודיה, כדאמרינן בערבי פסחים, )קיז, א(, וזה הקוראה תמיד בלא עתה - אינו אלא כמזמר שיר ומתלוצץ. He is blaspheming and scoffing – Because the first prophets establish to say those chapters as praise and thanks… and he who recites it daily not in its proper time is like one who sings a melody playfully. פסוקי דזמרא - שני מזמורים של הילולים הללו את ה' מן השמים הללו אל בקדשו . Pesukei DeZimra – Two Psalms of Praise: “Praise God from the heavens” [Psalm 148]; “Praise God in His holiness” [Psalm 150.] Massechet Soferim 18:1 Dr. Yael Ziegler Pardes The Psalms 2 אבל צריכין לומר אחר יהי כבוד... וששת המזמורים של כל יום; ואמר ר' יוסי יהא חלקי עם המתפללים בכל יום ששת המזמורים הללו 3) Maharsha Shabbat 118b ה"ז מחרף כו'. משום דהלל נתקן בימים מיוחדים על הנס לפרסם כי הקדוש ברוך הוא הוא בעל היכולת לשנות טבע הבריאה ששינה בימים אלו ...ומשני בפסוקי דזמרה כפירש"י ב' מזמורים של הלולים כו' דאינן באים לפרסם נסיו אלא שהם דברי הלול ושבח דבעי בכל יום כדאמרי' לעולם יסדר אדם שבחו של מקום ואח"כ יתפלל וק"ל: He is blaspheming.
