- MIZMOR SHIR LE-YOM HA-SHABBAT (Heb. לְיוֹם הַשּׁבָּת מִזְמוֹר
שִׁיר; "A Psalm, a Song for the Sabbath Day"), the superscription of
Psalm 92 which, according to the Talmud (Tam. 7:4, RH
31a, Sof. 18:1) was the Sabbath hymn chanted by the levites in the
Temple. The Psalm forms part of the Sabbath eve service in which the
Sabbath (kabbalat shabbat ) is welcomed. It is also part of the
pesukei de-zimra and the daily hymn at the conclusion of the
Sabbath morning service, as well as in the Sabbath Minḥah
service in the Sephardi and some Ashkenazi rites. Some aggadic sources
ascribe its authorship to Adam who pronounced it in his great joy for
the gift of repentance. In the course of time, it was forgotten until
Moses reintroduced it with ten other psalms (Gen. R. 22, end; Mid. Ps.
90:30).
