[Avodah] When do the malachim come

[torahmike at gmail.com]

>>I always thought we were greeting Shabbat haMalka. Surely SHE needs a
door!

    I don't know for sure what chazal meant exactly by the  "shabbos malka,
" but I'm
guessing/positing it was either A. a metaphor B. A pseudonym for the
shechina, not an actual independent entity. For if it was an actual
independent entity, it would seem to me it would be assur to bow to it.
