Shabbat

“ In all places, there is no fasting, crying out, or blasting on Shabbat or holidays for any affliction besides the affliction of sustenance, wherein we do cry out on Shabbat.
סעיף יב
כל עיר שיש בה צרה מכל אלו, אותה העיר מתענה וזועקין בתפלה ומתחננים ומתריעין בשופר עד שתעבר הצרה, וכל סביבותיה מתענות אבל לא מתריעות, אבל מבקשים עליהם רחמים. ובכל מקום אין מתענין ולא זועקים ולא מתריעים בשבת ויום טוב על שום צרה, חוץ מצרת המזונות שזועקים עליהם בשבת. ”

“ Which is the prayer of the poor? It is the evening prayer. Since she is without her husband, she is poor and withered, and may be taken freely by anyone. The Righteous are withered and poor. This refers to the seed of Jacob, which is under the rule of all nations of the world. This is similar to the evening prayer, because it is the aspect of night in the exile.
The prayer of Shabbat is a charity given to the poor, as the sages of the Mishnah explained that the sun during Shabbat is charity given to the poor. ”

“ Paragraph 1 - Someone wandering in the desert who does not know when Shabbat is should count seven days from the time he realized that he did not know the day of the week, and on the seventh day he should do kiddush and havdala. If he has something with which to sustain himself, it is forbidden for him to do any work at all until he finishes what he has, at which point he should do work every day, even on the day that he sanctifies [the Shabbat] , in order to preserve his limited sustenance. He is permitted to walk every day, even on the day that he sanctifies. ”

“ Paragraph 3 - A Jew who apostatized and worships idols or desecrates Shabbat in public, even if he only breaks rabbinic prohibitions, is treated like an idolater. If he only desecrates Shabbat in private, even if he breaks Toraitic prohibitions, he is treated like a Jew and can renounce property. ”

“ Even though on Shabbat the wording of the blessing is lehadlik ner shel Shabbat, for the lamps of chanukah we say Lehadlik Ner Chanukah without "shel", in order that the person reciting the blessing have in mind the acronym "NaChaL" which is a holy name hinted in the acronym of "Notzer Chesed La'alafim/who preserves kindness on thousands [of generations] " and in the acronym of "Nafsheinu Chikta Lashem/Our soul has waited upon Hashem," for they too were saved because they trusted in Hashem Yitbarakh and awaited His salvation. ”

“ Why do you need this crisis? Therefore let his great Torah honor permit me to go and hire a ship for you on Shabbat, for danger to life suspends Shabbat. And so it was. The trip agent went and hired a ship for them paid an Adrup, one gold idnar. Meanwhile many more ships came with [English] forces also to Acco, and the fear there grew greater and greater, and there was tremendous pressure in the city, For they had little space to fit so many armies, so it was a great terror there that Shabbat. [And all the house members where Rabbeinu obm was staying spread their hands (to Heaven) ] . ”

“ And so too if the eighth day fell on Shabbat which was also the eve of the festival, it is permitted to launder and bathe and cut one’s hair on erev Shabbat. And if he did not shave on the eve of the festival or Shabbat eve, it is permitted to shave after the festival, since the decree of shloshim has already been canceled. ”

“ If it is Shabbat, he mentions Shabbat and uses the concluding blessing of Shabbat. Rem"a: We do not say [the Haftarah blessing of] "for the Torah and for the Worship" at Mincha (Hagahot Maimoni at the end of the Laws of Yom Kippur, Mahari"l, Minhagim, Hagahot Mordechai) . ”

“ But chametz which is like blemish of the Da`at/knowledge has no annulment, for after the Da`at is blemished, by this is blemished the Shabbat, which is like the circle and the square, like annulment of the prohibited matter in sixty, for Shabbat receives power from the Da`at as mentioned above. And also the aspect of justice is spoiled, i.e. the heat of the heart which burns and annuls the bad. For the heat of the heart depends mainly on da`at (as Rabbeinu said in another place) . Therefore chametz which is like spoiling the da`at, has no annulment; we just have to burn it out completely. ”

“ Therefore the first day of Pesach is called Shabbat, as it says, “on the day after the Shabbat [i.e. Pesach] ” [Lev 23:11] . For via the matza which is the tikkun hada`at that is made then via this is made the aspect of Shabbat as mentioned, and it is on this that the waving the omer and the sefira depend, as mentioned. And this is the meaning of “you shall count from the day after the Shabbat” — after “Shabbat” specifically, as mentioned, i.e. the first day of Pesach which is the concept of Shabbat, via which the aspect of sefira comes, as mentioned. ”

“ Or he should endeavor to do some favor for a tzaddik, or learn with joy, or bring in the Shabbat with joy, or greet the tzaddik with joy.
62. Through learning in-depth, one is able to pray.
63. One who cannot learn because of impediments should abstain from intoxicating beverages.
64. Through neglecting Torah study, one comes to neglect prayer, and this is also the case in the converse.
65. One who cannot learn due to lack of time, and he learns on Shabbat and Rosh Chodesh (the first day of the month) , with this he closes off the spirit of impurity. ”

“ Rem"a Note: If these fell on the day before Shabbat, we [still] read 'Va-ya-chel'{Torah reading for fasts} (Beit Yosef) . If there is a Chuppah on the day of the fast which is [also] the day before Shabbat, we are accustomed to pray Mincha and read 'Va-ya-chel', and after this we perform the Chuppah (look at Siman 249, Seif 4 about if we complete the fast) :
סעיף ג
כל ארבעה צומות הללו, אם חלו להיות בשבת, נידחין לאחר השבת.
הגה: ואם חלו בערב שבת, קורים בשחרית ומנחה ויחל (ב"י) . ”

“ Paragraph 1 - We annul vows on Shabbat if the vows' content is relevant to a Shabbat necessity, like if someone vowed not to eat or drink. We do this even if he had the opportunity to annul them before Shabbat. The husband can annul his wife's vows even if they are not relevant to Shabbat, because if he does not annul them today, he will not ever be able to annul them. ”

“ When the hazzan prays, because he mentioned Shabbat as part of his Amidah, he also mentions Shabbat [in the Confession] . If he doesn't mention Shabbat, he need not repeat.
סעיף ג
אם חל בשבת מזכיר בה של שבת אבל בוידוי שלאחר התפלה אין מזכירין בו של שבת והני מילי יחיד אבל שליח צבור כיון שאמרו בתוך תפלתו מזכיר בו של שבת ואם לא הזכיר בזה אין מחזירין אותו:
623:4 We say "Keter" [in the kedusha] just like at Mussaf.
סעיף ד
אומר כתר כמו במוסף:
623:5 We do priestly blessings at Neilah (and the custom in these countries is not to do priestly blessings. We say Avenu Malkenu) . ”

“ Paragraph 6 - Regarding non-Jews who besiege Jewish cities: if they come for money, we do not desecrate the Shabbat [to protect ourselves] , but if they came to kill or come with no presented reason, we go out with weapons and desecrate the Shabbat. In a city that is near the border, even if they just come for straw or hay, we desecrate the Shabbat. ”

“ Special sacrifices were offered on Rosh Chodesh, so while the Temple existed, they allowed people to desecrate Shabbat whenever necessary in order to deliver messages regading Rosh Chodesh, so that the sacrifice might be offered on the correct day. ”

“ But the extra soul on Shabbat and Yamim Tovim and in every Mussaf, is the Ima Ilaah, the supplement of Ruach haKodesh; the prayer of the six weekdays three times daily is the Lower Shekhina, comprised of eighteen prayers three times daily, totaling in the six days to Cha"Y, life, so because of him it's called "tefilat kol-Pe"H." On weekdays food is brought to her by envoy, but on Shabbat and Yamim Tovim food is brought to her by the Holy Blessed One. Woe to a woman who is sustained by an envoy! ”

“ Paragraph 11 If a dangerously sick person has been surveyed medically and it is found on Shabbat that he needs treatment that will involve desecration of Shabbat for eight days, we do not wait until nightfall so that only one Shabbat will be broken, but we rather do the treatment immediately and end up breaking two Shabbats. ”

“ Rem"a: This is also true when Rosh Hashanah falls on Shabbat. The end of the blessing mentions only Shabbat. The same is true when Yom Kippur falls on Shabbat (Mahari"l and Minhagim) .
סעיף ג
בשבת בינתים ערבית יאמר בברכת מעין שבע המלך הקדוש. הגה: והוא הדין אם חל ראש השנה בשבת. וחותם בשל שבת לבד, וכן כשחל יום כפור בשבת (מהרי"ל ומנהגים) .
582:4 Some have the practice of praying on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur bent over. These people need to straighten up at the end of each blessing. ”

“ Paragraph 1 - All cases of saving a life supersede Shabbat, and he who hurries in these matters is praised. Even if there is a fire in a different yard and there is concern that it will move to this yard and cause danger, we put it out to ensure that it does not spread. ”

“ Rather, the Ramban is saying that (the obligation to pray) is not included in the list of (613) commandments, and that in a case of doubt (e.g. of whether one prayed or not) we rule leniently, similarly to the way that we rule by all other Rabbinic commandments.
My opinion is reflected in the words of the Ramban himself in the Laws of Shevutei Shabbat (The Rabbinic prohibitions of Shabbat) , where he says that running a business on Shabbat (literally: buying and selling {anything}) is (only) a Rabbinic prohibition. ”

“ Paragraph 1 - Every person has two thousand amot in every direction, aside from his four amot or from the place in which he started Shabbat.
סעיף א - כל אדם יש לו אלפים אמה לכל רוח, חוץ מארבע אמותיו או מהמקום ששבת בו. ”

“ Paragraph 8 - One who sees a boat with Jews that is endangered at sea or in a flowing river, or an individual being chased by idolaters, it is a commandment to desecrate Shabbat to save them. (And see above at the end of chapter 306 regarding whether one desecrates Shabbat if someone wants to rape him.)
סעיף ח - הרואה ספינה שיש בה ישראל המטרפת בים, וכן נהר שוטף, (וכן) יחיד הנרדף מפני עובד כוכבים, מצוה על כל אדם לחלל עליהם שבת כדי להצילם (ועין לעיל סוף סימן ש"ו, מי שרוצים לאנסו, אם מחללין עליו שבת) . ”

“ The sun is one and the moon is the other. Because of this, the lights that ascend are called the luminaries of the light whereas those that descend are called luminaries of the fire. These luminaries of the fire are the lower grades and rule over all the weekdays. Because of this, a blessing is recited over the candle when Shabbat ends because, at that point, the luminaries of the fire are given permission to rule again. The fingers of man represent the most hidden of all grades and secrets of the supernal world, and are divided into front and back. ”

“ Paragraph 3 - If, while he is in a Carmelit Area on Shabbat, a person discovers that the Tallit he is wearing is invalid, he should not take it off until he has reached his home, because the respect due to other people is greater. Rema: And even a tallit katan worn under one's clothing does not need to be removed and this is the law if one of the tzitzit has become invalid and one is ashamed to sit without a tallit may wear it without a blessing because of the honor of the public. ”

“ When your Chokhmah, englightenment, is lasting and complete, then you have the ability to subdue the the afflictors that pick on the weak stragglers among Yisrael and bring the latter into serving Hashem Yitbarakh and thereby attain a double amount of original Torah insights on Shabbat (Ibid.) .
46. The main bliss of the Coming World is thanking and praising His Blessedness's great Name and knowing and recognizing His Blessedness, which is what brings a person near to His Blessedness. For the more you recognize and know the Blessed One the closer you are to Him. ”

“ Hebrew Text
בין שנראה בעליל, בין שלא נראה בעליל, מחללין עליו את השבת; רבי יוסי אומר, אם נראה בעליל, אין מחללין עליו את השבת. English Translation Regardless of whether the moon was clearly visible or not clearly visible, They desecrate the Shabbat for it; Rabbi Yosei says: If it was clearly visible, they do not desecrate the Shabbat for it. ”

“ Paragraph 4 - If a Jew apostatized and he had houses in a Jewish neighborhood that participated in the eruv for the whole year and he has no other exit [from his house besides for into the Jewish yard] , he renders the Jews forbidden for every Shabbat after his apostatizing. However, if he has a different exit to the non-Jewish neighborhood, even a small exit that he never used initially, [the Jews] force him to use the exit open to the non-Jew neighborhood. ”

“ The next day they return to the ship and begin to travel. This is the custom in a few places and we do not object (R"an; Rivash) . See Siman 339.
4. If one goes out on a caravan in the desert on Shabbat and everyone knows they will be required to violate Shabbat because of the danger - they cannot tarry in the desert on Shabbat by themselves - for three days prior to Shabbat it is forbidden to go (on this caravan) . On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday it is permitted to embark on this journey. ”

“ For the existence and the perfection of speech comes only through truth. Then he merits to pray in truth, which is the essence of perfect prayer, and he'll merit receiving the Torat Emet from a True Rabbi who will show him the way in his True Torah, and he will merit arranging real matches - that Hashem Yithbarakh should summon for him and for his children their true match. All this is attained through thanks and acknowledgment to His Blessed Name and by learning Halakhot, as mentioned. In this way one can draw down the blessing, the sanctity, and the joy of Shabbat into the secular weekdays. ”
