		<title>Soul Inscription</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[via Rabbi Simon Jacobson]

		<title>Why is Shabbos the fourth commandment?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The number 4 is a Dalet. Dal is a poor person. The Zohar says G-d always hears the prayers of a poor person and his prayers reach the crown of the Kings glory.
