Friday, Oct 4/ 2 Tishrei
The order of the prayers is similar to the first day with certain poems (piyutim) that are different as indicated in the Machzor.
- If there is a brit on Rosh Hashanah, it should be performed before the blowing of the Shofar.
Food Prep
The food being cooked for Shabbat should be prepared in such a way that it is ready to eat before Shabbat begins. (See above regarding
Patach Eliyahu
It is customary to recite Patach Eliyahu (according to Nusach Ha’Arizal) before Mincha but not to say Chapter 107 of Tehillim.
Kaballat Shabbat
Chabad custom is to begin Kabbalat Shabbat from Mizmor LeDavid (Psalm 29). Nusach Ashkenaz begins with Mizmor Shir LeYom HaShabbat (Psalm 92).
Eiruv Food
As mentioned above, it is best to use the loaf which was designated as the Eiruv Tavshillin for Lechem Mishnah on Friday night and Shabbat day and then to eat it for the third meal. The cooked dish may be eaten at any time during Shabbat. If one doesn’t eat either of these, their eiruv is still considered kosher.
