Prayer Book

Outline for Shabbat Prayer at Home

Moses tells us, "God is the One who goes before you; God will be with you... Do not fear and do not be dismayed." (Deut. 31:8). As we move forward reopening the synagogue for Shabbat Services, there is a tremendous sense of excitement and optimism that permeates our community. As we return to the synagogue, we must do everything possible to remain safe and everything possible to facilitate community. The Jewish Tradition demands both of us.

Shabbat Experience

Commentary on the Parshat

Each and every week on Friday evenings, we recite the Hashkiveynu Prayer and pray to dwell in "Sukkat Shlomecha" -- in God's shelter of peace. Only on Shabbat Hol HaMoed Sukkot do we encounter the opportunity to actually dwell in a Sukkah. The question remains, is it a Sukkah of Peace? The answer resides within us. Do we enter the Sukkah on Shabbat carrying the anxiety of the week, our worries from work, or our recent squabbles from home? Or, can we enter the Sukkah with an intentionality to surround ourselves with serenity, with community, with compassion and support? The choice is ours. God's shelter awaits us all.

Shabbat Shalom, Chag Sameach, and Moadim L'Simcha,

Rabbi Nolan Lebovitz
