Kavanah
We know that our worship of the
Almighty is meaningful when it is correctly offered. “Correctly offered” means
that it is the Avodah ordained as desirable
by Hashem Yitborach. It must be identical
in substance and in form to the worship
described by the Torah and by
Chachameinu z”l.
One of the most important ingredients of all is “intention of the heart” - what
we commonly call, “Kavanah”.
The Torah makes a point of describing how the sacrificial offerings
placed on the Mizbeach must be “L’shem
Isheh” - for the purpose of serving Hakadosh Baruch Hu. The individual Korban
must be processed, from shechitah, zerikat
hadam (throwing or placement of blood)
through the consumption and burning of
the body parts, for the sake of the specific
kind of Korban intended to be offered.
Sanctity is conferred upon what is placed
into holy vessels of the Mikdash only by
virtue of the Kavanah intended when that
vessel is used. This is derived from the
association the Mizbeach with all other
keilim — mentioned together — in Shmot
40:10.
Kavanah is, clearly, the most important ingredient in Avodah. For our tefilot, kavanah is essential in order to offer
our uttered thoughts and intentions as worship of God.
