	Divrei Mordechai - Shavuot 5760
		The Magen Avraham says that this is similar to the Halakhah regarding washing hands before eating bread, in which we also say the blessing after the mitzvah of washing because the hands are impure.

		Rabbi Avraham Danzig in Nishmat Adam, Hilkhot Shabbat, Klal #5, says that while he is not worthy of disagreeing with the Magen Avraham, he does find fault with his proofs.

		[For instance, Avraham Danzig, Hayei Adam, Hilkhot Megillah, 155a] They state this as a plain fact, so plain that they see no need to present any proof for their claim.
		However it is hard to understand why they have done so, as the Mishneh Torah is quite clear on this issue: Amalekites may indeed convert to Judaism.

		The Gemara [Shabbat 113a] teaches that "Your Shabbat clothes should not be the same as your weekday clothes".
		In a most insightful comment, Rabbi Avraham Danzig [1748-1820], in his work Ĥokhmat Adam points out that the best clothes that we wear on Shabbat are not for the benefit of those around us, they are in honour of Shabbat; therefore we should dress this way even when we are completely alone for Shabbat.
		We, certainly, should dress ourselves in a smart outfit - the kind we would wear if we were going to be presented to an important personality or on an important occasion when we want to look our best.
