How To Lead A Messianic Family Shabbat (Shabbat Siddur) | para-DOX parABLEs

If your seeking to start observing biblical festivals a good place to start is by observing a Family Shabbat which is done on Friday evening before Sunset. This is done because once the sun goes down your are to Rest (Shabbat), the Rest (Shabbat) was made for the man, not the man for the Sabaath. The Sabaath or Shabbat is for Rest. Here is a Siddur (OrderStructure): The Shabbat starts of with the Giving Tzedakah (Charity), usually you will have a Tzedakah box in which you and your children put money in and then recite the following prayer.

Baruch atah Adonay Eloheinu Melech ha-olam, asher kidshanu bemitzvotav vetzevanu al ha-tzedakah Blessed are you, O L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us by His commandments and has commanded us concerning the Tzedakah

The next part is the Candle Lighting, this is the part the wife does. The women is the bringer of the light, the one who brings the light into the world which is a picture of Mariam bringing Yeshua into the world. Upon lighting the candle the women waves her hands three times toward herself and then recites this prayer.

Baruch atah Adonay Eloheinu Melech ha-olam, asher kidshanu bemitzvotav vetzevanu or goyim vnatan-lanu et Yeshua Meschicheinu or ha-olam. Amayn. Blessed are you, O L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us by His commandments and has commanded us to be a light to the nations and Who gave to us Yeshua the Messiah, the Light of the World. Amen.

Next you pray for your sons and daughters. The prayers goes as follows.

(Blessing Over Sons) Ysimchah Elochim keEphrieim vchiMenasheh. G-d make you as Ephraim and Mannaseh. (Blessing Over Daughters) Ysimaech Elocheem kSarah Rivkah Rechael vLea-ah.

G-d make you as Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah.

A very popular song usually song on Shabbat is Shalom Aleichem, which is as follows:

Shalom aleichem, malachei hasharayt, malachei elyon, mimelech malchei hamlachim, HaKadosh Baruch Hoo: Boachem lshalom, malachei hashalom, malachei elyon, mimelech malchei hamlachim, HaKadosh Baruch Hoo: Barchunee lshalom, malachei hashalom, malachei elyon, mimelech malchei hamlachim, HaKadosh Baruch Hoo: Tzaytchem lshalom, malachei hashalom, malachei elyon, mimelech malchei hamlachim, HaKadosh Baruch Hoo: Peace be unto you, ministering angels, messengers of the Most High, the King of kings, the Holy One, Blessed be He. May your coming be in peace, messengers of peace, messengers of the Most High, the King of kings, the Holy One, Blessed be He. Bless me with peace, messengers of peace, messengers of the Most High, the King of kings, the Holy One, Blessed be He. May your departure be in peace, messengers of peace, messengers of the Most High, the King of kings, the Holy One, Blessed be He.

Following that is the Blessing Over Wife (Ayshet Cha-Yil) in which Proverbs 31 can be recited or prayed over the wife. The prayer is as follows:

Eshet chayil mi yimtza vrachok mipninim michrah Batach bah lev balah vshalal lo yechsar Gmalathu tov vlo ra kol ymei chayeiha Darshah tzemer ufishtim vataas bchefetz kapeiha Haitah kooniyot socher mimerchak tavi lachmah Vatakom bod lailah vatiten teref lvetah vchok lnaaroteiha Zammah sadeh vatikachehu mipri chapeiha natah karem Chagrah voz motneiha vatametz zrooteiha Taamah ki tov sachrah lo yichbeh balailah nerah Yadeha shilchah vakishor vchapeiha tamchu felech Kapah parsah leani vyadeiha shilchah laevyon Lo tira lvetah mishaleg ki chol betah lavush shanim Marvadim astah lah shesh vargaman lvushah Noda basharim balah bshivto im ziknei aretz Sadin astah vatimkor vachagor natnah laknaani Oz vhadar lvushah vatischak lyom acharon Piha patchah vchochma vtorat chesed al lshonah Tzofiah halichot betah vlechem atzlut lo tochel Kamu vaneha vayashruha balah vayhallah Rabot banot asu chayil vat alit al kulanah Sheker hachen vhevel hayofi ishah yirat Hashem hi tithalal Tnu lah mipri yadeiha vihalluha vasharim maaseha An accomplished woman, who can find? Her value is far beyond pearls. Her husbands heart relies on her and he shall lack no fortune. She does him good and not evil, all the days of her life. She seeks wool and flax, and works with her hands willingly.

She is like the merchant ships, she brings her bread from afar. She arises while it is still night, and gives food to her household and a portion to her maidservants. She plans for a field, and buys it. With the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard. She girds her loins in strength, and makes her arms strong. She knows that her merchandise is good. Her candle does not go out at night. She sets her hands to the distaff, and holds the spindle in her hands. She extends her hands to the poor, and reaches out her hand to the needy. She fears not for her household because of snow, because her whole household is warmly dressed. She makes covers for herself, her clothing is fine linen and purple. Her husband is known at the gates, when he sits among the elders of the land. She makes a cloak and sells it, and she delivers aprons to the merchant. Strength and honor are her clothing, she smiles at the future. She opens her mouth in wisdom, and the lesson of kindness is on her tongue. She watches over the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise and praise her, her husband lauds her. Many women have done worthily, but you surpass them all. Charm is deceptive and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears God shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her in the gates.

Following is the blessing for the Shabbat, the short version goes as follows:

Baruch atah Adonay Eleoheinu Melech ha-olam, asher bidvaro maareev araveem. Amayn. Blessed art Thou, L-rd our G-d, King of the universe, Who at the Word brings on the evenings.

The long version is as follows:

Vayhi erev vayhi voker yom hashishi vaykhulu hashamayim vhaaretz vkhol tzvaam vaykhal elohim bayom hashvii mlakhto asher asah vayishbot bayom hashvii mikol mlakhto asher asah Vayvarekh Elohim et yom hashvii vaykadeish oto ki vo shavat mikol mlakhto asher bara Elohim laasot And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day The heavens and the earth were finished, the whole host of them And on the seventh day God completed his work that he had done and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it because in it he had rested from all his work that God had created to do Barukh atah Adonai, Eloheinu, melekh ha-olam asher kidshanu bmitzvotav vratzah vanu vshabat kadsho bahavah uvratzon hinchilanu zikaron lmaaseih vreishit ki hu yom tchilah lmikraei kodesh zeikher litziat Mitzrayim ki vanu vacharta votanu kidashta mikol haamim

vshabat kadshkha bahavah uvratzon hinchaltanu Blessed are You, Lord, our God, King of the Universe who sanctifies us with his commandments, and has been pleased with us You have lovingly and willingly given us Your holy Shabbat as an inheritance, in memory of creation because it is the first day of our holy assemblies, in memory of the exodus from Egypt because You have chosen us and made us holy from all peoples and have willingly and lovingly given us Your holy Shabbat for an inheritance Barukh atah Adonai mkadeish hashabat (Amein). Blessed are You, who sanctifies Shabbat (Amen)

Next up is the Kiddush or the Blessing over the wine, this is the part of the service that the Catholic Church arbitrarily took out of the Jewish Erev Shabbat and turn into the Eucharist. If you read the history of the Catholic Church and how they created their Liturgy they clearly state they took some of the elements of the Erev Shabbat and turned it into the Eucharist, they also claim to had changed the Sabbath (that anyone who worships on Sunday honors the pope over scripture) and they also took Passover and turned it to Easter. This is the original form of what is commonly called communion. The prayer over the wine is as follows:

Baruch atah Adonay Eloheinu Melech ha-olam, borey pree ha-gaphen. Amayn. Blessed are thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, who creates the fruit of the vine. Amen.

The next element is the washing of hands, which G-d commanded as ceremonial way before people believed their where health benefits to opening G-ds commands. At this point a bowl of water and a towel is needed. It is most likely at this point in the Passover Seder that Yeshua washed the disciples feet. The water would either poured over the hands or the fingers would be dipped in the water and you wash your hands up to your wrist. The prayer that is said is as follows:

Baruch attah Adonai eloheinu melekh haolam asher kiddeshanu bemitvotav vetzivanu al netilat yadayim Blessed are you, O L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us by His commandments and has commanded us about washing the hands

Following the washing of the hands it the blessing of the Bread. Its important to note that much like the bread of presence in the Tabernacle these where loaves of leavened bread. Only during the Feast of Unleavened Bread would it be a Matza or Unleavened Bread. Sometimes Matza is used when one is impoverished and doesnt have the means to purchased leavened bread. This is another element that was distorted. Passover falls during the Feast of Unleavened Bread so Matza is used. There is no other time that Unleavened Bread is required or used by in large. The Catholic Church distorted this in favor of their pagan influenced trans-substantiation ritual. The prayer for bread (haMotzi) is as follows:

Baruch atah Adonay Eleoheinu Melech ha-olam, ha-motzi lchem min haeretz. Amayn. Blessed are thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, who brings forth bread from the earth. Amen.

As Gentile or Messianic believers in Yeshua we add the Blessing of Messiah. Which goes as follows:

(Everyone) Baruch atah Adonay Eloheinu Melech ha-olam, asher na-tan lano et deh-rech ha-ya-shoo-ah bMeh-shee-ach Yahshua. (Everyone) Blessed are You, O L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, who has given us the way of salvation in Messiah Yeshua.

One of the most central prayers in Judiasm is the Shema it is said at all prayer times, three times a day, when you go to bed and when you wake up. The prayer goes as follows:

(Everyone) Shema Yisrael, Adonay Eloheinu, Adonay echad. Baruch shem ke-vod mal-choo-too lay-olam vaed. Yahshua, ha-Ma-she-ach, hoo Adonay. (Everyone) Hear O Israel, the L-rd our G-d, the L-rd is One. Blessed be His name, whose glorious kingdom is forever and ever. Yeshua The Messiah, He is the L-rd.

As Gentile or Messianic believers in Yeshua we add the Fathers Prayer which is also know as the Lords Prayer. Yeshuas teaching on prayer was based upon the Amidah (Standing Prayer), thats why He says When you stand praying. The prayer goes as follows:

Avinu shebashamayim, yitkadesh shimkha. Tavo malkhutekha yeaseh rtzonekha baaretz kaasher naasah vashamayim. Ten-lanu haiyom lechem chukeinu. uselach-lanu etashmateinu kaasher solechim anachnu laasher ashmu lanu. Vealtevieinu lidei massah, ki im-hatsileinu min-hara. Ki lekha hamamlakha vehagevurah veha-tiferet lolemei olamim. Amen. Our Father who is in heaven Sanctified be Your Name May your kingdom come, may Your will be done, As it is in heaven, so be it on earth, Give to us this day, our daily portion of the Bread, And forgive us our debts, As we are forgiving to those who are indebted to us, And do not lead us into the hands of temptation but deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Beauty forever into the ages, Amen

As in most settings they are ended by the Rabbi, Leader or Father (Priest) singing the Aaronic Benediction of their family or congregation. This is a central prayer to Judiasm and Messianic Judiams. The prayer goes as follows:

Ya-ve-recha Adonay ve-yeesh-me-recha. Ya-er Adonay panav e-ley-cha veechoo-ne-cha Yeesa Adonay panav e-lay-cha vyasem lcha Shalom. BShem Yahshua ha-Ma-she-ach sar ha-shalom, shalom. May the L-rd bless you and keep you. The L-rd make His face shine upon you and be gracious unto you; may the L-rd lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace. In the name of Yeshua the Messiah, the Prince of Peace, Shalom.

The next blessing is the blessing over the meal. The prayer is as follows:

Baruch atah Adonay Eleoheinu Melech ha-olam, borae meenay mazonot. Amayn. Blessed are thou, O L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, Creator of all kinds of foods. Amen.

At this time you would eat the meal that has been prepared before sunset on the Sabaath. Following the meal you would have readings from the scripture, Midrash or discussion and singing of Psalms. In Jewish tradition grace or thanks is given after meals, once youve enjoyed the blessings of G-d you say or give thanks. The short prayer for eating a variety of foods in one sitting is Boreh Nefashot which is as follows:

Baruch atah Adonay Eleoheinu Melech ha-olam, borei nfashot rabot vchesronan al kol ma shebarata lhachayot bahem nefesh kol chai baruch chei haolamim. Blessed are You, L-rd our G-d, King of the universe, Creator of numerous living beings and their needs, for all the things You have created with which to sustain the soul of every living being. Blessed is He who is the Life of the worlds.

The full After the meal the blessings would go as follows. The first prayer is the Grace After Meals which is as follows:

Barukh attah Adonai eloheynu melekh haolamhazan et haolam kullo betuvo, bechen bechesed uvrachamim. Hu notein lechem lekholbasar ki leolam chasdo.Uvtuvo haggadol tamid lo chaseid lanu veal yechsar lanu mazon leolam vaed,baavur shemo haggadol. Ki hu El zan umfarneis lakhol, umeitiv lakol umeikhin mazon lekhol briyotav, asher bara.Barukh attah hazan et hakkol. Amein. Blessed are you, L-RD our G-d, King of the universe, Who nourishes the whole world in goodness, with grace, kindness, and compassion. He gives bread to all flesh, for His mercy endures forever. And through His great goodness we have never lacked, nor will we lack food forever, for the sake of His great Name. For He is G-d, who nourishes and sustains all, and does good to all, and prepares food for all His creatures which He created. Blessed are You, L-RD, who nourishes all. Amen.

And that is the basic Shabbat Siddur (Order-Structure) for begginners. I hope this finds you blessed and you find this helpful.
