we are starting a new topic the laws of blessings in the morning and other blessings 46. the morning blessings NATO when a person wakes up yomar he should say he should say the blessing that starts with words Elohim and of course it doesn't start with because it follows right after Asher yatzar it doesn't mention the Sharia Tsar because that depends on whether you go to the bathroom or not but since usually we do go to the bathroom we say first and then elokai the mishnaburra says that since we are not allowed to benefit from the world without thinking Hashem first that is why when we wake up we have to first say thank you Hashem for my body thank you Hashem for my Nissan and then we continue thanking Hashem for all the benefits we want to use our eyes we say we want to rise up we have to say and so on and so forth as we go through all the benefits that we start to recognize we say thank you Hashem for every part of my body my world my clothing and so on now says that even though says when you wake up doesn't mean when you wake up in the middle of the night it means when you finally get up in the morning but if a person wakes up to go to the bathroom he just says afterwards but he doesn't say hello is only once in the morning when he is finally up when a person hears roosters Crow he should say Vina the blessing that starts with Baruch but it finishes with the one that gives wisdom to the rooster and see if says what is this interesting word servi the word is our mind and it's called in Torah because there is a verse who gives the Mind understanding however he says there is another meaning for the word and that is a rooster because he says in Arabic the name for Roosters and that is why we use this word because the rooster has a similar quality the rooster out of all birds recognizes the first light of dawn and benefits us as well by screaming out it's the morning now the mission Brewer also points out that when you say you should not say like I just said because people might think that what you're saying is that my God is my soul which is wrong rather you should pause between the word alokai and nishama you should say alokai my God and by making that pause it will be clear as to the meaning of your words now continues when you get dressed you say the one that closes the naked and mishnaburra points out that it doesn't mean that you were sleeping naked but even though you had underwear when you put your outer garments you can say this blessing in the in introduction also says that there is a it's actually um in if the mechaber who will point out that these blessings were established for the pleasures for the benefits that the person gets every day however Rama will argue that these blessings are not only for people but for needs of the entire world now the question that arises is what if this particular person doesn't use that um bless that doesn't use that benefit that day for example of we don't wear leather shoes or some people don't wear any shoes or on Yom Kippur some people don't wear shoes so if you're not wearing leather shoes or any shoes should you still say the blessing for shoes or not or a person who is blind should he say or not according to one opinion since he is not benefiting he shouldn't say those blessings according to another opinion since we're thanking Hashem for creating this benefit for most people even the person who he himself is not benefiting should still recite those blessings now continues when you put your hands over your eyes you say Hashem thank you for opening the eyes of the blind and mishna Brewer points out that we cannot do it um treat with our hands because there is a Prohibition of touching your eyes before washing your hands it may cause blindness Shalom so he says use a blanket or use a towel or your shirt and then when you touch your eyes you say Hashem thank you for creating eyes and continues EV when the person sits on his bed he should say Hashem you are the one who releases the prisoners because when we sleep we cannot move our movement in our body is disconnected so that we don't hurt ourselves or others and therefore when we wake up and we can now move our body we say Hashem thank you for allowing us not to be paralyzed anymore and when he stands up he says Hashem thank you for straightening those that were bent when we were sleeping on our side we were bent when we were sinning we're also our body is bent when we finally get up on two feet we say Hashem thank you for straightening the crooked and when you are actually standing on the ground you should also says Hashem thank you for making the ground flat and strong this concludes this page of mishnaburra thank you for joining all the best may we all deserve many blessings and enjoy many blessings from Hashem
