Musar su Lamentazioni 3:23

חֲדָשִׁים֙ לַבְּקָרִ֔ים רַבָּ֖ה אֱמוּנָתֶֽךָ׃

Sono nuovi ogni mattina; Grande è la tua fedeltà.

Kav HaYashar

It is written, “Renewed every morning; great is Your faithfulness!” (Eichah 3:23). Each and every morning when a person awakes from his slumber he is created anew. We know that the human being was created in order to uphold the Torah, and the statutes and commandments of Hashem. Therefore the moment he awakens from his sleep let him reflect on the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai. Let him reflect on the Bnei Yisroel purifying and sanctifying themselves before confronting the mountain in awe and fear, trembling and sweating. Let him imagine the mountain covered with smoke from the fire that crowned it as the Holy One Blessed is He descended upon it accompanied by myriad angels and the sound of the shofar. Let him picture Moshe Rabbeinu, peace be upon him, master of all the prophets, acting as intermediary between the Holy One Blessed is He and His people Yisroel. After thinking these thoughts let him be quick to speak some words of holiness. Thus the author of Seider HaYom writes that immediately upon awakening a man should say, “I acknowledge You, O living and enduring King, for mercifully returning my soul to me; great is Your faithfulness.” Then let him cleanse his body and wash his hands and go swiftly to the synagogue to pray.
