  3. The Basis for Hidur Mitzvah עָזִּ֤יוְזִמְרָת֙יָ֔הּוַֽיְהִי־לִ֖ילִֽישׁוּעָ֑ה The Lord is my strength and my song, and has become my salvation. זֶ֤האֵלִי֙וְאַנְוֵ֔הוּאֱלֹהֵ֥יאָבִ֖יוַאֲרֹמְמֶֽנְהוּ׃ This is my God whom I will praise, the God of my ancestors whom I will glorify! Cantor Melissa Puius  5774 This comes from the part of the Torah called the Song of the Sea

  7. מַחֲלוֹקֶת - Disagreement Opinion 1: Making one’s mitzvah better is still part of the same mitzvah… so Hidur Mitzvah counts as one mitzvah only. Maimonides agrees with this opinion. Cantor Melissa Puius  5774

  8. מַחֲלוֹקֶת - Disagreement Opinion 2: Making one’s mitzvah better counts as a second, separate mitzvah. Several authorities are of this opinion, Yakovben Asher, Joseph Karo, and Moses Isserles . Cantor Melissa Puius  5774
