Petihah

Petiḥâ

Terme araméen signifiant "ouverture", utilisé dans le judaïsme pour désigner au moins deux choses:

  • la clausule initiale d'une bénédiction statutaire, corrélative à la Ḥatimâ, comportant au moins trois caractéristiques (énumérées dans la mishna berakhot): les mots (en hébreu) "béni sois-tu", le nom divin (en fait son substitut traditionnel) et le titre (en hébreu) "notre D." avec la mention de sa royauté dans le monde;
  • la citation biblique initiale dans un midrash homilétique, à partir de laquelle le commentateur s'efforcera de tirer un sens qui rejoigne petit à petit le texte de la parasha du jour, dont l'un des versets est cité en conclusion du commentaire; on parle aussi de petiḥa (ou "ouverture") pour le commentaire lui-même de la citation initiale.
