Biography

Rabbi Shalom Sharabi (Mizrachi) was one of the Acharonim, remembered as a holy kabbalist whose teachings are cited with great reverence. The Pele Yoetz brings his words and calls him “the godly kabbalist,” drawing on his holy work, the Nahar Shalom.

Among the matters preserved in his name are the meditations and words he would say at the time of the shofar blasts (tekiot). The Pele Yoetz recommends sharing these words publicly, describing them as “words of the living Hashem,” like coals of fire — words that issue from the heart and enter the heart.
