SF - The Holiness of Shabbos

"May HaShem send your help from holiness, and may He strengthen you from Zion" (Tehillim 20). This Psalm holds a deep secret concerning the attainment of our personal holiness. The verse starts by saying, "May HaShem send your help from holiness." It seems more accurate to say, "May HaShem send His help from holiness." Rather, the verse states "your help" to reveal a precious lesson. "May He send your help from holiness" implies that HaShem helps each individual person to sanctify and elevate himself. Therefore, the "May HaShem send your help from holiness, implies that HaShem grants eacb one of us a special portion of holiness, i.e., "your help." When does HaShem grant us His gift of holiness? On each and every Shabbat, HaShem illuminates every Jewish person with a "Nishama Yeteira," an additional dimension of holiness that elevates and sanctifies our heart and soul.  

The six days of creation correspond to the natural laws of the universe. Whereas, the holiness of Shabbat is above the natural laws. Shabbat brings the power of renewal to the entire creation, by connecting every member of Klal Yisrael to HaShem, the holy Creator.   

Say the verse aloud, "May HaShem send your help from holiness, and may He strengthen you from Zion." Sense the extra dimension of holiness that HaShem grants especially to you on Shabbat. Reflect on the wonder that HaShem sanctifies you on Shabbat. Enjoy your "Nishama Yeteira," and experience new vistas of holiness, happiness, and closeness to HaShem.
