Shabbat First Meals
Accompanying the meal with the singing of Zemiros Shabbat (special Shabbat songs) and Torah thoughts and discussions is a highly enriching event.
Comment: The recitation of the zemiros word for word and in a leisurely and pleasant manner, is a genuine spiritual experience. The essence of the words which have been chanted over the generations by hundreds of thousands of Jews the world over bind us to the sanctity of the Shabbos and to the sacred aspect of the concept of “love of the Jewish Nation.”
After the meal, one recites the Birkas Hamazon (Grace After the meal] with added intent, in honor of the kedusha [sanctity) of Shabbat. In this version, we add on the prayer of “Retzai ve’hachlitzeinu be’yom haShabbos ha’gadol ve’hakadosh hazeh,” as it appears in the format of Birkas Hamazon presented at the end of this pamphlet.
