DAILY Visit Our Boutique Shop Jewish tradition required that one wash one's hands upon getting up every morn- ing. According to Rabbi Solo- mon Ben Aderet (Rashea) the reason for this is the fact that upon being able to arise from one's slumber every morning one should offer thanks to the Almighty for being able to get up. The expression of thanks is an exercise in liturgy which relates man directly to God. He is, therefore, comparable to the priests (Kohanim) in the sanctuary of old who performed . a service which brought them into contact with God. Coming into con- tact with the Almighty re- quires a person to purify himself and sanctify himself like the priests of old who are described in the Bible as being required to wash their hands and feet before enter- ing the sanctuary (Exodus 30). in speaking, Generally such circumstances, the washing is performed on those parts of the body which are usually exposed in the course of the service. Since the priests of old had to re- move their shoes before en- tering the sanctuary, both the hands and feet were ex- posed. Since our feet are usually covered, we wash only the hands. Also, when a per- son rises from one plateau of sanctification to the higher plateau he is required to wash his hands out of rever- ence, in recognition of the fact that he is entering a higher level of holiness. Passing from slumber to the state of being awake is like passing from one level to a higher level of holiness, thus one is required to wash their hands. pears to be no different than an animal. Indeed, he ap- pears to place his bodily needs ahead of the needs of his soul. The rabbis inter- pret a verse in the Bible which says "Thou Shalt Not Eat On Blood" to mean that one is not supposed to eat before he has settled him- self spiritually to prayer and dedication to God. Eating tends to make a man feel somewhat inde- pendent, while yet refrain- ing from food he shows his dependence on the Almighty and His power for strength. The blood tends to empha- size something of the spirit since it is in a sense the cir- culation of nobility through- out the body. Food enriches the blood physically. Prayer, bringing peace of mind and security, enriches the blood spiritually. One is, therefore, obligated to pray first in or- der to serve his spiritual needs before he tends to his physical needs.
