First Meal<br />
What is the concept of the Meal?<br />
<strong>Shabbat</strong> has two aspects:<br />
The EXTERNAL<br />
and the INTERNAL<br />
The BODY<br />
and the SOUL<br />
Friday Night Connection:<br />
First Meal<br />
The SOUL (Internal Aspect) of<br />
<strong>Shabbat</strong> is the prayers and<br />
kavanot.<br />
The BODY (External Aspect) of<br />
<strong>Shabbat</strong> is actions,<br />
particularly the MEAL.<br />

Friday Night Connection:<br />
First Meal<br />
We need both our body and soul to<br />
overcome the Opponent.<br />
The PRAYERS feed our SOUL<br />
and the MEAL feeds our BODY.<br />
The song Kol Mekadesh is a song about<br />
the different “LAWS” of <strong>Shabbat</strong><br />
By singing this song, we are connecting to<br />
the INTERNAL and essence of <strong>Shabbat</strong>…<br />
