This Siddur is dedicated to the memory my dear friend

Father William Potter who served as a relief chaplain at ground zero. Father Potter died of cancer on May 29, 2011. It is theorized that his cancer was a direct result of exposure at ground zero. Father Potter loved every human being regardless of their faith, race or social status. He was the personification of a true Tzadik (righteous individual). May his memory serve as an inspiration and a blessing.

An Introduction To Our Synagogue

An Introduction to the Synagogue Thank you for joining us for Shabbat services. We have prepared this introduction to explain our services and familiarize you with our community.

Our History The first mention of a Jewish family living in Portsmouth is found in Brewster’s “Rambles About Portsmouth”. Abraham and Rachel Isaac settled in Portsmouth around 1780. By the late 1880’s, there was a nucleus of Jewish residents who tried to maintain their Jewish traditions. In order to conduct religious services, they would meet at various homes. This early group of residents invited friends and relatives to settle in Portsmouth. At the turn of the century, there were about 30 Jewish families living in Portsmouth. Several meetings were held and the group formalized as the Temple of Israel. In 1911, the State Street Methodist Church offered their building for sale. Temple of Israel agreed to purchase the church building. They occupied the new synagogue in the fall of 1912. In 1967 Temple Israel, now with a membership of 125 families, expanded by adding a Community Center featuring a social hall, classrooms, a library, temple office, and rabbi’s office. Temple Israel has continued to enjoy a steady growth through the settlement of Jewish families in the Seacoast area. In the 2005 the Temple renovated the entire facility to accommodate a membership of 300 families and a religious school with an enrollment of over 100 children. For a more complete history of our community please see page 8.

The Synagogue The synagogue serves as the central gathering place of the Jewish community. The primary function of a synagogue is to serve as place of worship. It also serves as a place of study, and as a community center. The Hebrew for synagogue is beit k'neset, literally translated house of assembly. The word synagogue finds its origins in the Greek word synagogue which also means assembly.

Conservative Judaism The Conservative Movement is one of three main branches of Judaism. The movement affirms loyalty to Jewish law and tradition, while developing new responses to our evolving society. Egalitarian in practice, our synagogue gives equal rights and responsibilities to women and men.

Our Congregation Temple Israel is an inclusive congregation with members of varied levels of observance; interfaith families and Jews by choice are an integral part of our synagogue family. We appreciate and welcome diverse family structures into our community.

Our Rabbi Rabbi David Ross Senter is a fourth generation rabbi, who maintains a tradition of strong rabbinic leadership. He brings a unique blend of innovation and tradition to the congregation. Our rabbi has a hands-on approach which engages people of all ages. Children, adults and seniors relate to him as their friend and rabbi. -5-

Symbols / Etiquette

Congregational Symbols Holy Ark: The Holy Ark (Aron Kodesh) in the center of the pulpit (Bimah) contains the Torah Scrolls. When the doors of the Ark are open, those present stand as a symbol of respect. The Ark is situated so that when facing the Ark, the congregation is also facing towards Jerusalem. Eternal Light: This lamp (Ner Tamid) is directly above the Holy Ark. The perpetual light burns continuously as a symbol of God’s presence and the permanence of the Torah and the Jewish faith. Torah: The Torah contains the Five Books of Moses. It is handwritten on parchment. The text and calligraphy of the Torah has not changed for over 3000 years. During Saturday morning services the Torah is taken from the Ark and a portion (parsha) is read. The entire Torah is read over the course of 3 years. Bimah: The Bimah is the raised platform area used for conducting the service. In the center of the Bimah is the Shulchan, a lectern used by those leading the service, and/or reading from the Torah. Siddur: Our prayer book is known as the Siddur. The word is derived from the Hebrew word meaning "order". The book contains the order of our service. The numbering of the book is in the Hebrew traditional order of going from right to left, which causes the front and back of the book to reverse. Chumash: This book contains the Torah readings (Hebrew Bible), and the Haftorah readings (selections from the Prophets), along with English translations and explanatory notes. Pages will be announced so that you will be able to follow the order of the service.

Synagogue Etiquette Talking during the service: Greeting friends is encouraged, as friends and community are key components of synagogue life. Please refrain from talking during the service, as it is disruptive to the prayer experience. Electronic Communications: The use of beepers and cellular phones during the service is disruptive to the prayer experience. Please deactivate these devices prior to entering the sanctuary. If you are expecting an emergency call, please use the vibrate mode. Moreover, in the spirit of Shabbat, unless it is an emergency, please do not place cell phone calls or use other communication devices in the building on the Sabbath. Children: Children are always welcome. We understand that young ones may not behave perfectly during the service. However, if the noise level is excessive, you may want to use the lobby area outside the Sanctuary to calm a crying child. Shul sacks containing quiet toys and books for children are available on the shelf in the rear of the sanctuary.. Photography: Please refrain from using audio or visual recording devices on the Sabbath. Head Coverings for Men: It is a long-standing tradition to wear a head covering when entering a synagogue. This is considered essential to show modesty and reverence to God. The typical head covering used is a small, lightweight cap (of various colors) called a Kippah (Hebrew) or Yarmulka (Yiddish). All male visitors are asked to cover their heads in deference to our custom. Head Coverings for Women: In accordance with egalitarian practice women are similarly encouraged (but not required) to wear a head covering. A thin white lace covering is available for use. A Kippah may also be used by women. 6

Synagogue Etiquette Tallit: (Prayer Shawl) A Tallit is worn during the morning service in fulfillment of a commandment in the Book of Numbers to have fringes on the corners of our garments. The long strands and knots in the fringes represent the commandments that tie Jews to God and to our faith. The size and color of the Tallit is not regulated. The Tallit is worn by members of the congregation who have celebrated their Bar/Bat Mitzvah (see page 12). Choreography of Prayer: The idea that body movement can express devotion, appears in the Book of Psalms: "All my limbs shall say 'Who is like You, Ah-do-nai?'” (35:10). Tradition applies this text quite literally by incorporating specific actions into our prayer service. This prayer book has several icons that will help guide you in the choreography of prayer. These icons are pictured and explained below. Standing: Several prayers and ritual actions are accentuated by the congregation through the action of standing.

Standing during prayer is considered an action of respect. You may be seated. Bowing: Bowing is considered an act of humility before God. Judaism has a special procedure for bowing during prayer:

First you bend the knees a bit in,

knees,

then you bend forward while straightening the

then you stand straight.

History of Temple Israel

A Brief History of Temple Israel and the Portsmouth Jewish Community By George Sherman, Temple Historian The first mention of a Jewish family living in Portsmouth is found in Brewster’s “Rambles About Portsmouth”. Abraham and Rachel Isaac settled in Portsmouth around 1780. They came to America from Prussia. Mr. Isaac become an auctioneer and later started a china shop. The Isaacs were a religious family, observed the Jewish holidays and kept their shop closed on Saturday. They adopted a son, who left Portsmouth for New Salem, New Hampshire, where he married a minister’s daughter. After Mr. Isaac’s death, his wife left the area to live with her adopted son. The next fifty years provided no official record of Jewish families living in Portsmouth. There were several families who did come here from Germany, but they did not form or maintain a Jewish community. The children of these families eventually left the city. By the late 1880’s, there was a nucleus of Jewish residents who tried to maintain their Jewish traditions. At this time there were approximately 16 families living in Portsmouth. Religious services were conducted at various homes. This early group of residents invited friends and relatives to settle in Portsmouth. At the turn of the century, there were about 30 Jewish families living in Portsmouth. In 1905, Morris Port moved to Portsmouth from Newburyport, Massachusetts. He came from an established Jewish community and decided that the local Portsmouth residents should become organized. Several meetings were held and a group was formed which elected officers, including a president, vice president, treasurer, clerk and three trustees. This first organized congregation rented a room where meetings were held and religious services conducted. They called themselves the Temple of Israel. The temple’s first order of business was to find a religious leader. An advertisement was placed in the Jewish newspapers of Boston and New York. The ad was answered by Harry Liberson who was immediately hired. Along with his work as religious leader in conducting services, he also taught Hebrew school and prepared children for Bar Mitzvah. Among his other attributers, Liberson was an expert in the laws of kosher meat processing. He opened the first kosher butcher shop in Portsmouth. -8-

History of Temple Israel The second order of business was to establish a Jewish burial ground. Until that time, Jews were buried in Somersworth, NH. A committee representing Temple of Israel purchased an acre of land on Banfield Road in Portsmouth from John Hett. This became Temple Israel Cemetery and the first Jews were buried there in 1908. The area continues to be used as a Jewish cemetery. In 1910 Temple of Israel drafted its first set of bylaws which was accepted by the congregation. Temple of Israel became a legal religious group recognized by the city, county and state. The third crucial need was to find a proper building to be used as a synagogue. In 1911, the Methodist Church on State Street offered their building for sale. A committee of the Jewish congregation negotiated and agreed to buy the church building. They occupied the new synagogue in the fall of 1912, with elaborate festivities, including a parade and speeches by notables. By this time, the community had increased to 38 families and was continuing to grow. The Jewish families settled in an area close to the synagogue. Soon an area near the waterfront became a large Jewish settlement. This section was referred to as the “Puddledock” area. There were two kosher butcher stores, a Jewish bakery, and three Jewish grocery stores located there. Today most of the area has been restored and is better known as the Strawberry Banke area, with historical houses and museums. Of the many families who came to Portsmouth in the World War I years, many came to work at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard while others opened businesses. After the war, some families left the area but the Portsmouth Jewish community had then grown to 50 families. The synagogue was redecorated in 1920. The Cohen vestry was used for social events and a Hebrew school classroom. The community continued to grow and by World War II the membership had risen to 75. The name of the congregation was shortened to Temple Israel. In 1940 an adjacent building was purchased for use as a Hebrew school. In 1967 Temple Israel, now with a membership of 125 families, expanded by adding a Community Center. In 2005 the Temple began a process of renovation and renewal. The process resulted in remedial preservation work that brought the existing structure into the twenty-first century while preserving its historic integrity. The updated building includes a rejuvenated social hall and Schmoozatorium. Two new centers were added, The Pamela Shulman Center For Jewish Education and the Nancy Mae Shaines Memorial Library & Media Center. Temple Israel has continued to enjoy a steady growth through the settlement of Jewish families in the Seacoast area. In the past ten years many young professionals have relocated here. Now, in the new millennium, the membership is over 300 families with over 750 members, and the religious school has an enrollment of over 100 children.

Special Occasions 12

Special Occasions During a Service Baby Naming: It is customary to bring baby girls to the synagogue to be named in the presence of the Congregation. This may occur any time, but usually in the first few months of life. The giving of a Hebrew name signifies the joining of the girl into the community. The parents are usually given an Aliyah if the naming takes place at the time of a Torah Service. Boys receive their Hebrew names at the time of their Brit Milah (circumcision) when they are eight days old. Auf Ruf: A special ceremony at which the Bride and Groom receive an Aliyah (Torah honor) and a blessing from the Rabbi. Following this, it is customary to throw candy "at" the couple to wish them a sweet life together. Me-she-bey-rach: This is a special prayer said on behalf of someone during the Torah service. It has various forms such as for those who are sick or celebrating some special occasion. Bar/Bat Mitzvah: It is traditional for a boy or girl when they reach 13 years of age to become Bar (for a boy) or Bat (for a girl) Mitzvah (B’nai plural). The term means one responsible for the Commandments. It recognizes that the youngster is now mature enough to take on responsibility as an adult in meeting the religious commandments. At the time of a Bar or Bat Mitzvah, the child accepts the role of being an adult in the Jewish community. This can occur without any type of ceremony. However, it is customary for the B’nai Mitzvah to be called to the Torah for the first time as a demonstration of their willingness to participate in the religious life of the Jewish community. The B’nai Mitzvah may also be called upon to lead a portion of the service. The Haftorah is a lesson from one of the prophets that is read following the Torah reading. The B’nai Mitzvah normally will chant this portion of the service. Renewal of Wedding Vows: The ceremony of renewal of wedding vows is a meaningful, touching, ceremony in which a married couple affirm the magnitude and strength of their enduring love. The ceremony takes place under a Chuppah (wedding canopy) and the couple receives a Ketubah certificate as a memento of the occasion.

Thank you for sharing Shabbat with our Temple family. -12-

About Shalom Aleichem - Welcoming Angels Shalom Aleichem is traditionally sung at the Shabbat dinner table. Introduced in the sixteenth century by the Kabbalists, the author is unknown. According to legend two angels, one good and one bad, escort us from synagogue on Friday night. If the house is messy, the parents are unhappy, the children are fighting, and the atmosphere is not peaceful, then the Angel of Evil rejoices and says, "May every Shabbat be just like this one," and the Angel of Good is forced to agree. But if the angels see the house clean, the candles lit, and the family enjoying each other with love, then the Angel of Good rejoices and says, "May every Shabbat be just like this one," and the Angel of Evil is forced to agree.

KABBALAT SHABBAT "Welcoming the Sabbath" is the first part of the service that sets the mood for Shabbat. The complete text contains six psalms, one for each day of the week, culminating with Psalm 92, a psalm for Shabbat. We usually chant the first two, Psalms 95 and 96. The love poem, L’cha Dodi was composed by kabbalist Rabbi Solomon Alkabetz of Safed in 1529. We stand at the last stanza to face the door to welcome symbolically, the shechinah, God’s presence [the Sabbath bride].

Shir Chadash

Wc¨ ¨g xiW¦

(Psalm 96)

Psalm 96 frames our service to God in a joyous context. The Psalm expresses God as the author of creation. This Psalm instructs us to bear witness as we observe the miracles of daily life. We are reminded that God is just and faithful to all of humanity.

Acclaim Ah-do-nai, all people on earth. Sing to Ah-do-nai; proclaim each day God’s awesome might. Announce to the world God’s glory and wonders. For Ah-do-nai is great, deserving of praise; Ah-do-nai alone is to be revered as God. All the gods of the nations are nothingness, but Ah-do-nai created the heavens. Majesty and might accompany God; splendor and strength adorn God’s sanctuary. Acknowledge Ah-do-nai, all families of nations; acclaim God’s majestic power. Acknowledge God’s glory, and bring Him tribute. Worship Ah-do-nai in resplendent reverence; let the earth tremble in God’s presence. Declare to the world: Ah-do-nai is sovereign. God has steadied the world, which stands firm, and judges all nations with fairness. Let the heavens rejoice; let the earth be glad. Let the sea and all it contains exalt. Let field and forest sing for joy; Ah-do-nai comes to rule the earth: To rule the world justly; the nations with faithfulness.

The voice of Ah-do-nai strips the forest bare, while in God’s holy place all chant: “Glory!” Ah-do-nai sat enthroned at the Flood; Ah-do-nai will sit enthroned forever.

L’cha Dodi

The love of the Jewish people for the Sabbath is compared to that of a groom for his bride. It is in this spirit that the Jews of the 16th century gathered at the edge of town every Friday evening to welcome the Sabbath. Their song "L'cha Dodi" has become the centerpiece of our Friday evening "Kabbalat Shabbat" service. L’cha Dodi was composed by kabbalist Rabbi Solomon Alkabetz of Safed in 1529. We stand at the beginning of the last stanza to face the door and welcome symbolically, the shechinah, God’s presence [the Sabbath bride].

COME IN MY DEAREST Dear friend, come greet the Bride! Let us greet Shabbat! Speaking both words together Ah-do-nai told us to "Remember" and "Keep" Shabbat. Ah-do-nai is one, God’s name is one, telling God’s fame, beauty, and praise. Dear friend, come greet the Bride! Let us greet Shabbat! Let us greet Shabbat, for she is the source of all blessing. Before the world was created, Ah-do-nai planned to make her the holiest day. Dear friend, come greet the Bride! Let us greet Shabbat! Come in peace, crown of love. With joy and happiness, come walk among the faithful, beloved people. Come in, O Bride! Come in, O Bride!

Dear friend, come greet the Bride! Let us greet Shabbat!

Mizmor Shir (Psalm 92)

Psalm 92 is also known as “A Song for Shabbat”. Music is used as a metaphor to describe the spirit of Shabbat as a state of unity between heaven and earth. This Psalm was a favorite of the Neo- Hasidic folk singer Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach.

It is good to acclaim Ah-do-nai, to sing Your praise, exalted God, To affirm Your love each morning, and Your faithfulness each night, to the music of the lute and the melody of the harp. Your works, Ah-do-nai, make me glad; I sing with joy of Your creation. How vast Your works, Ah-do-nai! Your designs are beyond our grasp. The thoughtless cannot comprehend; the foolish cannot fathom this. The wicked may flourish, springing up like grass, but their doom is sealed, for You are supreme forever. Your enemies, Ah-do-nai, Your enemies shall perish; all the wicked shall crumble. But me You have greatly exalted; I am anointed with fragrant oil. I have seen the downfall of my foes; I have heard the despair of my attackers. The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree; they shall grow tall like a cedar in Lebanon. Planted in the house of Ah-do-nai, they will thrive in the courts of our God. They shall bear fruit even in old age; they shall be ever fresh and fragrant, to proclaim: Ah-do-nai is just my Rock, in whom there is no flaw.

Tsa-dik ka-ta-mar yif-rach, k'e-rez ba-l'va-non yis-geh. Sh'tu-lim b'veit Ah-do-nai, b'chats-rot E-lo-hey-nu yaf-ree-chu. Od y'nu-vun b'sey-va, d'shey-nim v'ra-a-na-nim yi-h'yu, L'ha-gid key ya-shar Ah-do-nai, Tsu-ri, v'lo av-la-ta bo. -21-

God’s Sovereignty

K¨ln¨ d¨Fd§i

(Psalm 93)

Psalm 93 is also known as the “Song of the Universe”. The psalmist affirms that the God is the sovereign of the universe who authored creation and the forces of nature.

Ah-do-nai is sovereign, crowned with splendor; Ah-do-nai reigns, robed in strength. You set the earth on a sure foundation, You created a world that stands firm. You have reigned from earliest time, You are eternal. The rivers may rise and rage, the waters may pound and pulsate, the floods may swirl and storm. Yet above the crash of the sea and its mighty breakers is Ah-do-nai our God, supreme. A

The sun is going down, it's shining through the trees. Another week's gone by, become a memory. So throw away your worries, there's nothing left to do. Go on home and find the gift that's waiting there for you. It's time to say Good Shabbos because all your work is done, gonna spend a day together with the Holy One. Say a special blessing on a cup filled with wine. You and the Creator, it's a very special time. lyrics by Abie Rotenberg

Mourner’s Kaddish The Kaddish, an Aramaic prayer that is [almost] 2,000 years old, is recited in slightly different variations at every prayer service. Although one form of the Kaddish is recited in memory of the dead, the prayer itself says nothing about death; its theme is the greatness of God, reflected in its opening words: "Yitgadal ve-yitkadash, Shmei rabbah--May God’s name be magnified and made holy…. " The prayer's conclusion speaks of a future age in which God will redeem the world.

Translation of Kaddish: Glorified and sanctified is God's great name throughout the world created according to Ah-do-nai’s will. May God’s sovereignty be established in our lifetime and the life of all Israel, and let us say, Amen. May God’s great name be blessed forever and to all eternity. Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored be the name of the Holy One, source of blessing, beyond all the blessings and songs, beyond all the tributes spoken in the world; and let us say, Amen. May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us and for all Israel; and let us say, Amen. May the One who creates peace in the celestial heights, create peace for us and for all Israel; and let us say, Amen.

Ma’ariv Service 28

Evening Ma’ariv Service The “Ma’ariv” service is the first formal service of the Sabbath The service officially begins when we rise and face the Ark and recite the Barchu responsively. The Shaliach Tzibor (congregational prayer leader) begins by chanting: Barchu et Ah-do-nai Hamevorakh Bless Ah-do-nai, the blessed one. The congregation responds to the prayer leader: Baruch Ah-do-nai Hamevorakh leolam vaed Blessed is Ah-do-nai, the blessed one, forever. In the temple of old the "Kohanim" (priests) would summon the congregation to prayer using the Barchu proclamation also known as "The Affirmation of Faith".

Eternal love: Endless is Your love for Your people Israel. You have taught us Torah and mitzvot, laws and judgement. Therefore, Ah-do-nai our God, when we lie down and when we rise up we shall speak of Your commandments and rejoice in Your Torah and mitzvot forever. Day and night we will reflect on them. They are our life and the length of our days. Your love shall never depart from our hearts. We bless You, Eternal God who loves the people Israel.

The Sh'ma prayer is the oldest and most treasured Jewish prayer. We affirm God's relationship with us as we pledge our love to God. The full Sh'ma is three separate paragraphs from the Torah. The first paragraph, Deut: 6:4-9 deals with loving God, learning Torah, and passing on Jewish tradition to our children. The second paragraph, Deut.11:13-21, speaks about the positive rewards of mitzvot. The third paragraph, Numbers 15:37-41, speaks about the mitzvot to wear tzitzit, and the exodus from Egypt. We are commanded to say the Sh’ma twice daily, "And you will speak of them …beshohkbekha…when you lie down and uvekumekha… when you rise up" (Deut.6:7) If a Minyan is not present add:

El Meh-lech Neh-eh-man

on¨ `¤ ¡ p Kl« ¤ n¤ l`¥

God, faithfully rules the world!

People commonly cover their eyes with the palm of their hand while reciting the first verse of Sh'ma to eliminate every distraction and help concentrate. -25-

You shall love Ah-do-nai your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your might. And these words which I command you this day, you shall take to heart. Teach them, diligently to your children, and recite them at home and away, night and day. Bind them as a sign upon your hand, and as a reminder above your eyes. Inscribe them on the door posts of your homes and upon your gates.

If you will obey the Mitzvot which I command you this day, to love your God and to serve God with all your heart and soul, then I will bless your livelihood in good measure. Do not be lured to false goals, seeking alien ideals. For then the image of God will be lost from within you, and you will decline in holiness, becoming distant from your heritage. Cherish my words in your heart and soul. Wear them as proud reminders on your forehead. Teach them diligently to your children, review them when you are at home and when you are away night and day. Write them on the door posts of your house and upon your gates. Then your days and the days of your children will endure on this good earth, like the days of the heaven on the earth. This is the promise God made to our ancestors.

And Ah-do-nai said to Moses Speak to the Children of Israel and say to them that they are to make themselves fringes, tzitzit on the corners of their garments, throughout their generations. And they are to place upon the tzitzit of each corner a thread of blue (techelet). And it shall constitute tzitzit for you, that you may see it and remember all the mitzvot of God and perform them; and not explore after your heart and after your eyes after which you stray. So that you may remember and perform all My mitzvot; and be holy to Your God. I am God, Your God, Who has removed you from the land of Egypt to be a God to you. I am Ah-do-nai Your God.

Protect us with Your gift of peace by helping us to overcome temptation. When we are weak, sustain us; when we despair, open our hearts to joy. Shelter us in Your embrace of peace when we are caught by conflict or desire. When we are torn, heal us; when we are tormented, touch us with tranquility. Cherish our fragmented lives; make our lives whole again through integrity. When we deceive, turn us to You; when we corrupt, capture our hearts anew. Protect us from ourselves; when we falter, help us to conquer the enemy within. When we blunder, restore us; with compassion teach us that peace is based on Your truth. — Jules Harlow

The people of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath in every generation as a covenant for all time. It is a sign forever between Me and the people of Israel, for in six days the Eternal One made heaven and earth, but on the seventh day God rested and was refreshed. (Exodus 31:16-17)

Reader’s Kaddish Kaddish is commonly known as a mourner's prayer, but in fact, variations on the Kaddish prayer are routinely recited at many other times, and the prayer itself has nothing to do with death or mourning. Kaddish is a prayer that affirms our faith in God and our hope for the future. The Reader’s Kaddish separates units of prayer within a service.

Translation of Kaddish

Glorified and sanctified is God's great name throughout the world created according to Ah-do-nai’s will. May God’s sovereignty be established in our lifetime and the life of all Israel; and let us say, Amen. May God’s great name be blessed forever and to all eternity. Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored be the name of the Holy One, source of blessing, beyond all the blessings and songs, beyond all the tributes spoken in the world; and say, Amen.

The great Chassidic master Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov would pray with intense concentration. According to legend his soul would leave his body, ascend a spiritual ladder, and pray in front of the heavenly court. The Amidah is the central prayer of all four services: Shacharit (morning), Mincha (afternoon), Maariv (evening), and Mussaf (additional). The word Amidah literally means standing, because it is recited while standing. It is also known as Shemoneh Esrei, meaning eighteen, because it originally consisted of eighteen blessings, and as Tefilah (prayer) because it is the most important Jewish prayer. The Amidah is a person's opportunity to approach God in private prayer, and should therefore be said quietly.

Kavanah - This prayer of intent is recited prior to the silent Amidah. While reciting this prayer, it is customary to take three small steps forward as if one is approaching royalty. This custom is derived from the actions of Abraham who "came forward" to pray for the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:23). Where there is not much space, it has become the practice to take several tiny steps back before taking the three symbolic steps forward..

We thank You for the miracles and for the salvation and for the mighty deeds and for the victories and for the battles which You performed for our forefathers in those days at this time. In the days of Mattityahu, the son of Yochanan the High Priest, the Hasmonean, and his sons - when the wicked Greek kingdom rose up against Your people Israel to make them forget Your Torah and compel them to stray from the statutes of Your will - You in Your great mercy stood up for them in the time of their distress. You took up their grievance, judged their claim, and avenged their wrong. You delivered the strong into the hands of the weak, the many into the hands of the few, the impure into the hands of the pure, the wicked into the hands of the righteous, and the wanton into the hands of the diligent students of Your Torah. For Yourself, You made a great and holy name in Your world, and for Your people Israel You worked a great victory and salvation on this very day. Thereafter, Your children came to the Holy of Holies of Your House, cleansed Your Temple, purified the site of Your holiness and kindled lights in the courtyards of Your sanctuary; and they established these eight days of Chanukah to express thanks and praise to Your great name.

For all Your blessings, we shall continually bless You, forever and ever.

Amidah - AN ALTERNATIVE VERSION Rabbi Andre Unger - Adapted

Help me, Ah-do-nai, to pray. Our ancestors worshiped You. Abraham and Sarah, Rebecca and Isaac, Jacob, Rachel and Leah stood in awe before You. We too reach for You, infinite, awesome, transcendent God, source of all being whose truth shines through our ancestors’ lives. We, their distant descendants, draw strength from their lives and from Your redeeming love. Be our help and our shield, as You were theirs. We praise You, God, Guardian of Abraham and Sarah. Your power sustains the universe. You breathe life into dead matter. With compassion You care for those who live. Your limitless love lets life triumph over death, heals the sick, upholds the exhausted, frees the enslaved, keeps faith even with the dead. Who is like You, God of splendor and power incomparable? You govern both life and death, Your presence brings our souls to blossom. We praise You, God who wrests life from death. Sacred are You, sacred Your mystery. Seekers of holiness worship You all their lives. We praise You, God, ultimate sacred mystery. Culminating the birth of the cosmos You consecrated to Your own glory the day of Shabbat -- blessed above all days, holiest of times, as it is written in Your Torah: “Heaven and earth and all they contain were complete. On the seventh day God brought to a halt God’s creative work and rested from all endeavor. And God blessed the seventh day because on it God desisted from all effort and striving and creation.”

Add for Festivals: Out of all humanity You chose us, You loved us, You found pleasure in us. Out of all people, through Your Law, You uplifted us, You consecrated us, You drew us near to serve You, and shared with us your great and holy Name. Lovingly, Ah-do-nai our God, You gave us Sabbaths for rest, Festivals for joy, Feasts and holy days for delight. (On Passover add): this Feast of Matzah, season of our liberation, (On Shavuot add): this Feast of Shavuot, the season when our Torah was given, (On Sukkot add): this Feast of Sukkot, our joyous season, (On Sh’mini Atzeret add): this Feast of Sh’mini Atzeret, our joyous season, a sacred gathering, memento of our Exodus from Egypt. Ah-do-nai, God of our ancestors, find pleasure in our Shabbat, make us holy with Your mitzvot, give us a share in Your truth. Sate us with Your goodness, delight us with Your help. Make our hearts worthy to serve You truly. May we possess Your holy Shabbat with love and eagerness. May the people Israel, bearer of Your holy name, be blessed with tranquility. We love You, Ah-do-nai whose Shabbat is sacred. Would that Your people at prayer gained delight in You. Would that we were aflame with the passionate piety of our ancestors’ worship. Would that You found our worship acceptable and forever cherished Your people. If only our eyes could see Your glory perennially renewed in Jerusalem. We praise You, God whose presence forever radiates from Zion. You are our God today as You were our ancestors’ God throughout the ages; firm foundation of our lives, we are Yours in gratitude and love.

41 Festival Amidah Kavanah - This prayer of intent is recited prior to the silent Amidah. While reciting this prayer, it is customary to take three small steps forward as if one is approaching royalty. This custom is derived from the actions of Abraham who "came forward" to pray for the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:23). Where there is not much space, it has become the practice to take several tiny steps back before taking the three symbolic steps forward..

Reader’s Kaddish

Kaddish is commonly known as a mourner's prayer, but in fact, variations on the Kaddish prayer are routinely recited at many other times, and the prayer itself has nothing to do with death or mourning. Kaddish is a prayer that affirms our faith in God and our hope for the future. The Reader’s Kaddish separates units of prayer within a service.

May God’s sovereignty be established in our lifetime and the life of all Israel; and let us say, Amen. May God’s great name be blessed forever and to all eternity. Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored be the name of the Holy One, source of blessing, beyond all the blessings and songs, beyond all the tributes spoken in the world; and say, Amen. May the prayers of the whole House of Israel be accepted by our Father in Heaven. And let us say: Amen. May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us and for all Israel; and say, Amen.

Aleinu

Epi¥lr¨

Aleinu, proclaims God as Melech (sovereign) over a united humanity. It has been recited as the closing prayer of the three daily services ever since the 13th century. According to tradition, Joshua composed it at the time he crossed the Jordan and entered the Land of Promise. It was first introduced into the daily prayer service by Rav, founder of the Sura Academy (early third century). Aleinu is also recited as, as an introduction to Malchuyot(verses of sovereignty), part of the Musaf service on the High Holidays.

It is up to us to thank the Ruler of All, to praise the the author of Creation, who did not make us like other nations, who created us as a unique people, and set us on a separate path toward a special destiny. And we bend our knees, and bow down, and give thanks, before the Ruler, the Ruler of Rulers, the Holy One, who created heaven and earth. Who dwells is in the heavens above, with a powerful Presence in the highest heights You are our God, there is no other. You are eternal, there is nothing else. As it is written in Your Torah: “Know this day and take to your heart that Ah-do-nai is the only God in heaven above and on the earth below—there is none other.” -46-

Because We Believe Because we believe in You, Ah-do-nai, We hope for the day when Your majesty will prevail, When all false gods will be removed, and all idolatry will be abolished; When the world will be made a kingdom of God, When all humanity will invoke Your name, And the wicked will be turned to You. May all the living fervently acknowledge that to You every knee must bend, every tongue vow loyalty. Before You may all bow in reverence, Proclaiming Your glory, accepting Your sovereignty. May Your reign come soon and last forever; For sovereignty is Yours alone, now and evermore. So is it written in Your Torah: "Ah-do-nai shall reign forever and ever." The prophet too, proclaimed this promise: "Ah-do-nai shall reign over all the earth; On that day Ah-do-nai shall be One and God’s name One." zFxM¨ mili ¦ l¦ ` ¡ d¨ e§ ,ux«¤`¨ d¨ on¦ milEN ¦ B¦ xia£ ¦ rd© l§ ,L«G¤ rª zx«¤ ¤`t§ z¦ A§ dx¨d¥ n§ zF`x§ l¦ ,Epi«¥dŸl` ¡ d¨Fdi§ LN§ d¤Ew© p§ oM¥ l©re§ lM¨ Erc¥§ ie§ ExiM© «¦ i .ux«¤`¨ i¥rW § x¦ lM¨ Li«¤l`¥ zFpt§ d© l§ ,L«¤nW § a¦ E`x§ w§ i¦ xU ¨ a¨ i¥pA§ lk¨ e§ ,iC© W © zEkl§ n© A§ mlFr ¨ oT¥ z© l§ ,oEzx¥M¨ i¦ ,Ep«Y¥ i¦ xw¨ i§ Ln§ W ¦ cFak§ l¦ e§ ,ElŸR« i¦ e§ Erx§ k§ i¦ Epi«¥dŸl` ¡ d¨Fdi§ Li«p¤ t¨ l§ .oFWl¨ lM¨ ra© X ¨ Y¦ ,Kx«¤ ¤A lM¨ rx©k§ Y¦ Ll§ iM¦ ,la¥ z¥ ia¥ WFi § .c¤re¨ mlFr ¨ l§ dx¨d¥ n§ mdi ¤ l£ ¥ r KŸln§ z¦ e§ ,L«¤zEkl§ n© lFr z`¤ mN¨ kª ElA§ wi © e¦ Key ha-mal-chut she-l'cha he,

(Mourners and those observing Yaherzeit please rise)

Mourner’s Kaddish The Kaddish, an Aramaic prayer that is [almost] 2,000 years old, is recited in slightly different variations at every prayer service. Although one form of the Kaddish is recited in memory of the dead, the prayer itself says nothing about death; its theme is the greatness of God, reflected in its opening words: "Yitgadal ve-yitkadash, Shmei rabbah--May God’s name be magnified and made holy…. " The prayer's conclusion speaks of a future age in which God will redeem the world.

After all has ceased to be, God, the Awesome One, will reign alone. It is God Who was, God Who is, and God Who shall remain, in splendor. God is One - there is no second to compare to Him, to declare as God’s equal. Without beginning, without conclusion - God is the power and dominion. God is my God, my living Redeemer, Rock of my pain in time of distress. God is my banner, a refuge for me, the portion in my cup on the day I call. Into Your hand I shall entrust my spirit when I go to sleep - and I shall awaken! With my spirit shall my body remain. Ah-do-nai is with me, I shall not fear.

Counting the Omer 55

Counting the Omer

Sefirat Ha Omer

In the days of the Holy Temple, the people would bring a barley offering on the second day of Passover (Leviticus 23:10). This was called the "Omer" (literally, "sheaf") . According to the Tradition we count the days of the barley offering, between Passover and Shavuot. Each night, from the second night of Passover to the night before Shavuot, we recite a blessing and state the count of the Omer. in both weeks and days. Today the Omer is a time of reflection in which we examine our own personal journeys from slavery to civilization. Passover represents exodus from slavery. Shavuot represents civilization with the acceptance of the law.

50 Kiddush

Kiddush Kiddush is a blessing recited over wine or grape juice stating the holy nature of Shabbat. The Torah refers to two requirements concerning Shabbat - to "keep it" and to "remember it" (shamor and zakhor). Jewish tradition recogmizes two aspects of Shabbat observance. One must "keep it" by refraining from forbidden activities, and one must "remember it" by making the day special. Reciting kiddush before a meal is a way of remembering the Shabbat and making the day special.

Asher Yatzar - A private prayer We bless You Ah-do-nai, eternal God of the universe, who formed humanity with wisdom and created within us many openings, arteries, and capillaries. It is obvious and known before Your glorious throne that if one of them were to be opened or one of them were to be blocked it would be impossible to survive and to stand before You.

"Affix fringes to the corners of your garments. Whenever these fringes are seen, you will be reminded of God's commandments." (Numbers) Jewish men and some Jewish women wear a Tallit across their shoulders. The Tallit is a shawl with fringes on each side of its four corners. The following blessing is recited before placing the Tallit on your shoulders.

MA TOVU In the biblical narrative Bil’am (an evil prophet) is asked by King Balak, to curse the Israelite people. When Bil’am sees the Israelite camp he has a change of heart and offers this blessing. May we, as we enter into prayer in this community, find meaning and purpose in our endeavor as a community so that we too can say, “How lovely are your Tents, O Jacob!”

MORNING BLESSINGS

BIRCHOT HASHACHAR

Just as one should not begin physical exercise without first warming up, so too, one should not begin davening (prayer) without “warming up". The early morning prayers, birchot hashahar, give us an opportunity to warm up our voices and spirit. They begin with a series of b’rachot (blessings) that trace the process of awakening. These b’rachot thank God for the gift of our bodies and souls; they describe God as providing for our physical needs of sight, strength, clothing, etc. It is no accident that the first and last thing Jews do every day is pray. What could be more appropriate in these moments of quiet reflection than to thank God for the myriad blessings of each day.

VERSES OF PRAISE SECTION (PESUKEI DEZIMRAH) The Verses of Praise section was initiated as an optional part of the prayer service and was recited privately. Today, these verses are recited every day, in private and public prayer. The Verses of Praise consist of a series of psalms, preceded and followed by a special blessing. The recitation of these psalms is intended to prepare and uplift the soul, purify our thoughts, and make us clear in our approach to God and prayer. Following the Verses of Praise, the Kaddish is recited to indicate that a subsection of the prayer service has now concluded, and we continue with a major section of the prayer service, namely, the blessings of the Sh'ma and the Sh'ma prayer. May it be Your will, Ah-do-nai my God and God of my ancestors, to protect me this day, and every day, from arrogance of others and from arrogance in myself. Save me from a bad companion and from a bad neighbour, and from any mishap or evil; from a harsh judgment, and from a harsh opponent, be they a child of the covenant or not.

Miz-mor Shir Cha-nu-kat Ha-Ba-yit L'David A Psalm of David. A Song for the Dedication of the Temple. I will extol you, Ah-do-nai, for you have raised me up. You did not permit foes to rejoice over me. Ah-do-nai my God, I cried to you, and you have healed me. Ah-do-nai, you have brought up my soul from the pit of death. You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. Sing praise to Ah-do-nai, you faithful. Acclaim God’s holiness. God’s anger lasts for just a moment. Divine love is everlasting. Tears may stay for the night, but joy comes in the morning. As for me, I said in my prosperity, “I shall never be moved.” You, Ah-do-nai, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled. I cried to you, Ah-do-nai, I made my supplication: “What profit is there in my destruction, if I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise you? Shall it declare your truth? Hear, Ah-do-nai, and have mercy on me. Ah-do-nai, be my helper.” You have turned my mourning into dancing, my sackcloth into robes of joy ----- that my heart may sing praise to you, and not be silent.

Mourner’s Kaddish The Kaddish, an Aramaic prayer that is [almost] 2,000 years old, is recited in slightly different variations at every prayer service. Although one form of the Kaddish is recited in memory of the dead, the prayer itself says nothing about death; its theme is the greatness of God, reflected in its opening words: "Yitgadal ve-yitkadash, Shmei rabbah--May God’s name be magnified and made holy…. " The prayer's conclusion speaks of a future age in which God will redeem the world.

Ba-ruch She'ah-mar

The composition of Baruch She'amar is attributed to the Great Assembly (circa 70CE). Tradition explains that it was revealed from heaven with 87 words which correspond to the Hebrew word paz, or fine gold. God's commitment to us is as valuable as gold. Baruch She'amar focuses primarily on the power of communication. God spoke and the entire world came into being. Blessed is the one who speaks. Baruch She'amar, encourages us to maintain not only our commitment to each other, but to ourselves as well, just as God made a commitment to us at the time of creation.

Preliminary Service 96 -You may be seatedOriginally, the Jewish prayer service consisted of the Sh'ma and its Blessings; and the Tefillah. That was the entire communal Jewish service. Gradually, other readings were added. One of the most frequently-recited is Psalm 145, called either Praise of David (Tehilah L'David) or the Ashrei (because of its first word, Ashrei, Happy). It is an alphabetic poem. It is referred to once in the Talmud, but its importance is clear: “Eleazar b. Avina says: Whoever recites Ashrei three times daily, is sure to inherit the world to come.” Brachot 4b

We will bless God now and always. Halleluyah!.

Attributed to King David, The Book of Psalms is divided into 150 Psalms, each of which constitutes a religious song or chant. In Psalm 150 the psalmist paints a picture of an orchestra that has completed tuning their instruments and is ready to play in concert. As we read this Psalm we near the conclusion of the PESUKEI DEZIMRAH (verses of praise section) and prepare to sing as a congregation.

Va-y'va-rech Da-vid et Ah-do-nai Then David praised Ah-do-nai in the presence of the whole assembly: “Ah-do-nai, the God of our ancestor Israel, may You be praised forever and ever! Yours, Ah-do-nai, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. Everything in the heavens and on earth is Yours, Ah-do-nai, and this is Your kingdom. We adore You as the one who is over all things. Wealth and dignity come from You alone, for You rule over everything. Power and might are in Your hand, and at Your discretion people are made great and given strength. “Ah-do-nai, we thank You and praise Your glorious name! You alone are Ah-do-nai. You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them.

You sent miraculous signs and wonders against Pharaoh, against all his officials and all the people of his land, for You knew how arrogantly the Egyptians treated them.

Ah-do-nai is my strength and my song; You have given me victory. You are my God, and I will praise You, my ancestor’s God, and I will exalt! Ah-do-nai is a warrior; Ah-do-nai is Your name! Pharaoh’s chariots and army You hurled into the sea. The finest of Pharaoh’s officers are drowned in the Red Sea. The deep waters gushed over them; they sank to the bottom like a stone.

It is partially cited in the Talmud as a prayer of thanksgiving for the rainfall that follows a drought. Nishmat is a song of praise and thanksgiving. Apart from its place in the Jewish liturgy on the Sabbath and Holidays and at the Passover Seder, Nishmat is considered a powerful prayer believed to bring great blessing to whomever says this prayer at any time. Nishmat had been chanted by people in need of a livelihood, marriage, children, health and/or healing. While praying Nishmat a person can keep other people in mind for a blessing or healing as well.

Reader’s Kaddish

Preliminary Service 106

Kaddish is commonly known as a mourner's prayer, but in fact, variations on the Kaddish prayer are routinely recited at many other times, and the prayer itself has nothing to do with death or mourning. Kaddish is a prayer that affirms our faith in God and our hope for the future. The Reader’s Kaddish separates units of prayer within a service.

107 Morning Service

Morning Shachrit Service

At one time the morning congregational service began with the Sh’ma. All preliminary prayers were said privately. Consequently the introduction to the Sh’ma was the call to prayer or Bar’chu. This marked the beginning of the public prayer service. Although preliminary prayers are now said publicly, Bar’chu still remains the introduction to the Sh’ma. Since Bar’chu calls the congregation to public prayer, it is not said when praying privately. In the temple of old the "Kohanim" (priests) would summon the congregation to prayer using the Ba-re-chu proclamation.

Reader:

109 Morning Service Translation of El Adon Creation reflects the rule of God, who is praised by the breath of all life. God's greatness and goodness fill the universe; knowledge and wisdom encircle God's presence. Exalted is God by creatures celestial; enhanced and adorned by the mysteries of heaven. God's throne is guarded by truth and purity; God is surrounded by mercy and love. Good are the lights our God has created, fashioning them with insight and wisdom. Endowed by God with power and vigor, they maintain dominion amidst the world. Abounding in splendor, emanating brilliance, their radiant light adorns the universe. Rejoicing in rising, gladly setting, they rush to obey their Creator's will. God is acclaimed by beauty and glory, God's sovereignty sung by celebration and praise. God summoned the sun, whose light shone forth, then gave to the moon its cyclical glow. The stars and planets, all bodies of the heavens acclaim God with praise; celestial creatures give glory and greatness.

110 Morning Service To praiseworthy God they sing sweet songs; with song they celebrate the living God; for God alone does mighty deeds, and makes new things; master over struggle, sowing righteousness, and reaping victory. God is the source of healing, and is revered in praises. Ah-do-nai of wonders, who in goodness renews the creation every day continually; as it is said, give thanks to the One who makes great lights, for God’s loving kindness endures forever.

The Sh'ma prayer is the oldest and most treasured Jewish prayer. We affirm God's relationship with us as we pledge our love to God. The full Sh'ma is comprised of three separate paragraphs from the Torah. The first paragraph, Deut: 6:4-9 deals with loving God, learning Torah, and passing on Jewish tradition to our children. The second paragraph, Deut.11:13-21, speaks about the positive rewards of fulfilling the mitzvot. The third paragraph, Numbers 15:37-41, speaks specifically about the mitzvot to wear tzitzit, and the exodus from Egypt. We are commanded to say the Sh’ma twice daily, "And you will speak of them …beshohkbekha…when you lie down and uvekumekha… when you rise up" (Deut.6:7).

If a Minyan is not present add:

El Meh-lech Neh-eh-man

on¨ `¤ ¡ p Kl« ¤ n¤ l`¥

God, faithfully rules the world!

People commonly cover their eyes with the palm of their hand while reciting the first verse of Sh'ma to eliminate every distraction and help concentrate..

Teach them, diligently to your children, and recite them at home and away, night and day. Bind them as a sign upon your hand, and as a reminder above your eyes. Inscribe them on the door posts of your homes and upon your gates.

If you will obey the Mitzvot which I command you this day, to love your God and to serve God with all your heart and soul, then I will bless your livelihood in good measure. Do not be lured to false goals, seeking alien ideals. For then the image of God will be lost from within you, and you will decline in holiness, becoming distant from your heritage. Cherish my words in your heart and soul. Wear them as proud reminders on your forehead. Teach them diligently to your children, review them when you are at home and when you are away night and day. Write them on the door posts of your house and upon your gates. Then your days and the days of your children will endure on this good earth, like the days of the heaven on the earth.

And Ah-do-nai said to Moses Speak to the Children of Israel and say to them that they are to make themselves fringes, tzitzit on the corners of their garments, throughout their generations. And they are to place upon the tzitzit of each corner a thread of blue (techelet). And it shall constitute tzitzit for you, that you may see it and remember all the mitzvot of God and perform them; and not explore after your heart and after your eyes after which you stray. So that you may remember and perform all My mitzvot; and be holy to Your God. I am God, Your God, Who has removed you from the land of Egypt to be a God to you. I am Ah-do-nai Your God.

114 Morning Service You have been our ancestors’ help a Saviour every generation: Though You dwell in the heavens; Your righteousness fills the world. Happy is the one who keeps Your Mitzvot, and takes Your Torah and Your word to heart. It is true that You are the first and You are the last, and beside You, we have no Redeemer and Saviour. From Egypt You redeemed us, Ah-do-nai our God, and from the house of bondage You delivered us; all their first-born You destroy, but Your first-born You redeemed; You split the Red Sea, and drowned the proud; but You made the beloved pass through, while the waters covered their adversaries, not one of whom was left. Then the beloved praised and extolled God, and offered hymns, songs, praises, blessings and thanksgivings to the living and ever-enduring God.

The great Chassidic master Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov would pray with intense concentration. According to legend his soul would leave his body, ascend a spiritual ladder, and pray in front of the heavenly court. The Amidah is the central prayer of all four services: Shacharit (morning), Mincha (afternoon), Maariv (evening), and Mussaf (additional). The word Amidah literally means standing, because it is recited while standing. It is also known as Shemoneh Esrei, meaning eighteen, because it originally consisted of eighteen blessings, and as Tefilah (prayer) because it is the most important Jewish prayer. The Amidah is a person's opportunity to approach God in private prayer, and should therefore be said quietly.

115 Morning Service Kavanah - This prayer of intent is recited prior to the silent Amidah. While reciting this prayer, it is customary to take three small steps forward as if one is approaching royalty. This custom is derived from the actions of Abraham who "came forward" to pray for the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:23). Where there is not much space, it has become the practice to take several tiny steps back before taking the three symbolic steps forward..

You support the living with kindness. You give eternal life to the departed with great mercy. You support the fallen, heal the sick and set free those in prison.

You are faithful in giving eternal life to the departed. We praise You, who gives immortality to the departed. The Kedushah has become known as the centerpiece of communal prayer. It is constructed around the biblical verses "Holy, holy, holy! Ah-do-nai of Hosts! God’s presence fills all the earth!" (Isa. 6:3) and "Blessed is the Presence of Ah-do-nai, in God’s place" (Ezek. 3:12).

And You did not give the Sabbath to the other nations of the earth, nor do the unrighteous dwell in its rest; but to Your people Israel You did give it in love, to the children of Jacob whom You chose. The people that sanctify the seventh day, all of them will be satiated and delighted with Your goodness, seeing that You find pleasure in the seventh day, and made it holy; You called it the desirable of days, in remembrance of the creation.

On Chanukah the following is added:

We thank You for the miracles and for the salvation and for the mighty deeds and for the victories and for the battles which You performed for our forefathers in those days at this time. In the days of Mattityahu, the son of Yochanan the High Priest, the Hasmonean, and his sons - when the wicked Greek kingdom rose up against Your people Israel to make them forget Your Torah and compel them to stray from the statutes of Your will - You in Your great mercy stood up for them in the time of their distress. You took up their grievance, judged their claim, and avenged their wrong. You delivered the strong into the hands of the weak, the many into the hands of the few, the impure into the hands of the pure, the wicked into the hands of the righteous, and the wanton into the hands of the diligent students of Your Torah. For Yourself, You made a great and holy name in Your world, and for Your people Israel You worked a great victory and salvation as this very day. Thereafter, Your children came to Your House, cleansed Your Temple, purified the site of Your holiness and kindled lights in the courtyards of Your sanctuary; and they established these eight days of Chanukah to express thanks and praise to Your great name.

Amidah - AN ALTERNATIVE VERSION Rabbi Andre Unger - Adapted

Help me, Ah-do-nai, to pray. Our ancestors worshiped You. Abraham and Sarah, Rebecca and Isaac, Jacob, Rachel and Leah stood in awe before You. We too reach for You, infinite, awesome, transcendent God, source of all being whose truth shines through our ancestors’ lives. We, their distant descendants, draw strength from their lives and from Your redeeming love. Be our help and our shield, as You were theirs. We praise You, God, Guardian of Abraham and Sarah. Your power sustains the universe. You breathe life into dead matter. With compassion You care for those who live. Your limitless love lets life triumph over death, heals the sick, upholds the exhausted, frees the enslaved, keeps faith even with the dead. Who is like You, God of splendor and power incomparable? You govern both life and death, Your presence brings our souls to blossom. We praise You, God who wrests life from death. Sacred are You, sacred Your mystery. Seekers of holiness worship You all their lives. We praise You, God, ultimate sacred mystery. Culminating the birth of the cosmos You consecrated to Your own glory the day of Shabbat -- blessed above all days, holiest of times, as it is written in Your Torah: “Heaven and earth and all they contain were complete. On the seventh day God brought to a halt God’s creative work and rested from all endeavor. And God blessed the seventh day because on it God desisted from all effort and striving and creation.”

Add for Festivals: Out of all humanity You chose us, You loved us, You found pleasure in us. Out of all people, through Your Law, You uplifted us, You consecrated us, You drew us near to serve You, and shared with us Your great and holy Name. Lovingly, Adonai Eloheinu, You gave us Sabbaths for rest, Festivals for joy, Feasts and holy days for delight. (On Passover add): this Feast of Matzah, season of our liberation, (On Shavuot add): this Feast of Shavuot, the season when our Torah was given, (On Sukkot add): this Feast of Sukkot, our joyous season, (On Sh’mini Atzeret add): This Feast of Sh’mini Atzeret, our joyous season, a sacred gathering, memento of our Exodus from Egypt. Ah-do-nai, God of our ancestors, find pleasure in our Shabbat, make us holy with Your mitzvot, give us a share in Your truth. Sate us with Your goodness, delight us with Your help. Make our hearts worthy to serve You truly. May we possess Your holy Shabbat with love and eagerness. May the people Israel, bearer of Your holy name, be blessed with tranquility. We love You, Ah-do-nai whose Shabbat is sacred. Would that Your people at prayer gained delight in You. Would that we were aflame with the passionate piety of our ancestors’ worship. Would that You found our worship acceptable and forever cherished Your people. If only our eyes could see Your glory perennially renewed in Jerusalem. We praise You, God whose presence forever radiates from Zion. You are our God today as You were our ancestors’ God throughout the ages; firm foundation of our lives, we are Yours in gratitude and love. Our lives are safe in Your hand, our souls entrusted to Your care. Our sense of wonder and our praise of Your miracles and kindness greet You daily at dawn, - 99 -

Morning Service 122 dusk, and noon. Gentle One, Your caring is endless; Compassionate One, Your love is eternal. You are forever our hope. Let all life confront You with thankfulness, delight, and truth. Help us, Ah-do-nai; sustain us. We praise You Ah-do-nai whose touchstone is goodness. To pray to You is joy. Ah-do-nai, from whom all peace flows, grant serenity to Your Jewish people, with love and mercy, life and goodness for all. Consider us kindly, bless us with tranquility at all times and all seasons. We praise You, Ah-do-nai whose blessing is peace. May my tongue be innocent of malice and my lips free from lies. When confronted by enemies may my soul stay calm, truly humble to all. Open my heart with Your teachings, that I may be guided by You. May all who plan evil against me abandon their schemes. Hear my words and help me, Ah-do-nai, because You are compassionate, because You are almighty, because You are holy, because You are loving, because You reveal Your Torah. May You find delight in the words of my mouth and in the emotions of my heart, Ah-do-nai, my strength and my salvation. As You maintain harmony in the heavens, give peace to us and to the whole Jewish people. Amen.

The Amidah is the central prayer of all four services: Shacharit (morning), Mincha (afternoon), Maariv (evening), and Mussaf (additional). The word Amidah literally means standing, because it is recited while standing. It is also known as Shemoneh Esrei, meaning eighteen, because it originally consisted of eighteen blessings, and as Tefilah (prayer) because it is the most important Jewish prayer. The Amidah is a person's opportunity to approach God in private prayer, and should therefore be said quietly.

123 Festival Amidah Kavanah - This prayer of intent is recited prior to the silent Amidah. While reciting this prayer, it is customary to take three small steps forward as if one is approaching royalty. This custom is derived from the actions of Abraham who "came forward" to pray for the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:23). Where there is not much space, it has become the practice to take several tiny steps back before taking the three symbolic steps forward..

You support the living with kindness. You give eternal life to the departed with great mercy. You support the fallen, heal the sick and set free those in prison. You keep faith with those who sleep in the dust. Who is like You, Mighty Ruler, and who can compare to You? You are the Ruler of life and death who causes salvation to bloom. You are faithful in giving eternal life to the departed. We praise You, who gives immortality to the departed. The Kedushah has become known as the centerpiece of communal prayer. It is constructed around the biblical verses "Holy, holy, holy! Ah-do-nai of Hosts! God’s presence fills all the earth!" (Isa. 6:3) and "Blessed is the Presence of Ah-do-nai, in God’s place" (Ezek. 3:12).

PSALM 114 :When Israel went out of Egypt, when the house of Jacob left another people, Judah became the place of God’s holiness, Israel became God’s seat. The sea looked and fled, the Jordan reversed its course. Mountains skipped like rams and the hills jumped about like young lambs. What is happening that you turn back, O sea,Jordan, why do you reverse your course? Mountains, why do you skip like rams and hills why do you jump like lambs? You are beholding the face of your Creator, before God, before the God of Jacob, turning rocks into swirling waters and stone into a flowing spring. This section is not said on Rosh Chodesh or the last six days of Passover

Not for our sake, Ah-do-nai, not for our sake, because of Your kindness and Your truth. Why should the nations say: "Where is their God?" When our God is in the heavens doing the divine will! Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands. They have a mouth, but they cannot speak, they have eyes, but they cannot see. They have ears, but they cannot hear. They have a nose, but they cannot smell. They have hands, but they cannot feel. They have feet, but they cannot walk. They cannot make a sound with their throat. Those who make them shall become like them, whoever trusts in them.

May Ah-do-nai increase you, you and your children. You are blessed by Ah-do-nai, who made the heaven and earth. The heaven is Ah-do-nai's heaven, but Ah-do-nai has given the earth to mankind. The dead cannot praise Ah-do-nai, nor can any who go down into silence. We will bless Ah-do-nai from this time forth and forever. Halleluyah! This section is not said on Rosh Chodesh or the last six days of Passover

Psalm 116:1-11 I love that Ah-do-nai hears my prayers, because Ah-do-nai cares for me, I will call to Ah-do-nai as long as I live. The pangs of death encircled me. I found trouble and sorrow, then I called"Ah-do-nai, save my life!" Gracious is Ah-do-nai, and righteous and our God is merciful. Ah-do-nai protects the simple. I was brought low and Ah-do-nai saved me. Return to your rest, my soul, for Ah-do-nai has been kind to you. You delivered me from death, my eyes from tears and my feet from stumbling. I shall walk before Ah-do-nai in the lands of the living.

135 Hallel Psalm 116:12-19 How can I repay Ah-do-nai for all the kindness in my life? I will raise the cup of salvations, and call upon the name of Ah-do-nai. My vows to Ah-do-nai I will pay in the presence of all our people. Precious in the sight of Ah-do-nai is the death of pious followers. Ah-do-nai, I am truly Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your hand-maid; You have loosened my bonds. To You I sacrifice a thanksgiving offering, and call upon the name of Ah-do-nai.

Reader’s Kaddish

Morning Service 138

Kaddish is commonly known as a mourner's prayer, but in fact, variations on the Kaddish prayer are routinely recited at many other times, and the prayer itself has nothing to do with death or mourning. Kaddish is a prayer that affirms our faith in God and our hope for the future. The Reader’s Kaddish separates units of prayer within a service.

May the prayers of the whole House of Israel be accepted by our Father in Heaven. And let us say: Amen. May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us and for all Israel; and say, Amen. May the One who creates peace in the celestial heights, create peace for us and for all Israel; and let us say, Amen. - 114 -

About the Torah service The Torah service is a unique and sacred moment in the services that embodies a central Jewish value. After reciting prayers of praise and thanksgiving, we take time out to study. In Judaism, study is both a privilege and a form of Divine service. It is therefore preceded with the Torah Processional, a time of rejoicing and song. As the Sefer Torah (Torah scroll) is removed from the Aron Ha-ko-desh (Holy Ark) and processed through the congregation we sing verses from the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible). The verses, song and ritual, are designed to remind us of our earliest history as when a portable Ark containing the written word of God stood in the middle of the Israelite camp. At the same time, these prayers inspire us to envision the future of our people. As the Torah is processed through the congregation, we follow it by turning to face it and kissing it with our tzitzit (tallit fringes) or siddur as it passes. About The Sifrei Torah (Torah scrolls) A Sefer Torah is the written word of God as envisioned by our ancestors. As such, we express respect to a Sefer Torah, as a representation of our sacred traditions, the generations that came before us and our bond with God. We treat the Sifrei Torah with great care and respect and hiddur (esthetic enhancement). The Sifrei Torah generally are adorned with silver crowns and breast plates and are encased in colorful mantels. To be kosher, Torah scrolls must be hand-written by a scribe using special ink and special parchment. One misspelled word or damaged letter in a Sefer Torah invalidates it for use. Because the Hebrew in a Sefer Torah is written without vowels or musical notation, chanting from the Torah requires special skill. Receiving a Torah Honor: A Step By Step Guide 7 Steps to the Perfect P’tikhah (Opening the Ark)

1. Come up to the Bimah near the end of Ain Kamokhah (page 117) and stand to the left of the Ark. 2. Open the Ark as the Rabbi begins to chant the next paragraph, Vayehi binsoah (2nd paragraph 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.

on page 117). Close the Ark before the Reader recites the verses on page 120. Follow the Torah during the procession. Return to your seat. People will bless you with the words “Yasher Koach” (May you be rich in strength). Shake their hand and respond “Barukh tihyeh” (you should be blessed). 11 Steps to the Perfect Aliyah Come to the Bimah (pulpit) at the appropriate time. State your Hebrew name (yours and your parents’) clearly to the Gabbi. Stand on right-hand side of the Torah Reader. Allow the Torah Reader to show you the place in the Torah and kiss it with tzitzit or prayer book. Take hold of the handles (atzei chayim) and say first blessings (Transliterated on Card). Look on with reader. At end of reading, kiss the place in the Torah that the reader shows you with tzitzit or prayer book. Take hold of the handles (atzei chayim) and recite blessing for after the reading (Transliterated on Card). Move to other side of reader (to the left of the Torah). After the next aliyah, return to your seat. People will bless you with the words “Yasher Koach” (May you be rich in strength). Shake their hand and respond “Barukh tihyeh” (you should be blessed). - 115 -

14 Steps to the Perfect Hagbah (Raising the Torah) 1. Come to the Bimah (pulpit) after the Torah reading is complete. 2. Note the chair where you will be sitting down with the Torah. 3. Roll the scroll to a point where a seam is mid-way between the two atzei chayim (Torah handles). 4. Open the scroll slightly. 5. Pull the Torah down so that the edge of the table is half-way between the bottom and top of the Torah. 6. Push down on the bottom handles, so that the Torah begins to be vertical. 7. Bend your knees. 8. Push the Torah up and straighten your legs (you are now standing up and so is the Torah). 9. Turn around so that the congregation can see the words in the Torah. 10. If you feel confident, unroll the Torah slightly so that at least 3 columns are showing. 11. Walk to the chair and lower yourself carefully, with the Torah still vertical. 12. Hold the scroll while it is tied and dressed. 13. Settle the scroll on one of your shoulders and hold it until a Gabbi assists you in placing it securely on one of the special shelves. 14. People will bless you with the words “Yasher Koach” (May you be rich in strength). Shake their hand and respond “Barukh tihyeh” (you should be blessed).

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

9 Steps to the Perfect Gelilah (Rolling and Tying the Scroll) Come to the Bimah (pulpit) after the Torah reading is complete, along with the Hagbah. Stand near the chair where the Hagbah will sit. As the Hagbah sits, grab hold of the upper handles. Once the Hagbah is seated, roll the scroll tightly together (keep the seam in center). Place the Gartel—the belt—around the Torah and close it in place. Place the Mantel—the cover—on the Torah. Place the yad—the pointer—on the Torah. People will bless you with the words “Yasher Koach” (May you be rich in strength). Shake their hand and respond “Barukh tihyeh” (you should be blessed).

The Torah Service 139 There is no one like You among the gods, Ah-do-nai; and there are no works like Yours. Your domination endures throughout all generations. Ah-do-nai is supreme; Ah-do-nai was supreme; Ah-do-nai will be supreme forever and ever. Ah-do-nai will give strength to our people; Ah-do-nai will bless our people with peace. Father of mercies, do good in Your favour to Zion; build You the walls of Jerusalem. For in You alone do we trust, exalted God ofworlds. When Moshe (Moses) traveled with the Holy Ark, he would say, "Arise my God let Your enemies be scattered; make those who hate You leave Your sight. For out of Zion will come the Torah, and the word of God will be heard from Jerusalem.” We bless the One who gave the Torah to the nation of Israel in holiness.

Prayer for the Israel Defense Forces Avinu She-ba-Sha-ma-yim, Our Heavenly parent, protector of Israel, bless the soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces, who stand watch over our land and the cities of our God; from the border of Lebanon to the desert of Egypt and from the great sea to the approach of the Aravah, on land, in the air, and at sea. May God cause the enemies who rise against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One preserve and rescue our fighting men and women from every trouble and distress, from every plague and illness, and send blessing and success to their every endeavor. May God lead our enemies under their sway and adorn them with the crown of salvation and triumph. And may it be fulfilled for them the verse “for it is Ah-do-nai Your God who goes with You to battle your enemies, for you and to save you". Harachaman hu yitein achavah bein b’nei Sarah

Return them to their lands, to their homes, and to their loved ones, rejoicing in the knowledge that tyranny is destroyed, and that doers of evil are no more. And may it be fulfilled for them the verse, “for it is God Your God who goes with you to battle your enemies, for you and to save you". Now let us respond......... Amen - 118 -

Reader’s Kaddish

Kaddish is commonly known as a mourner's prayer, but in fact, variations on the Kaddish prayer are routinely recited at many other times, and the prayer itself has nothing to do with death or mourning. Kaddish is a prayer that affirms our faith in God and our hope for the future. The Reader’s Kaddish separates units of prayer within a service.

150 Birkat Hachodesh

BLESSING THE NEW MONTH

Birkat Hachodesh (Blessing the Month): The Jewish calendar is primarily lunar, with each month beginning on the new moon. In ancient times, the new months used to be declared by Sanhedrin (the court). When the Sanhedrin heard eyewitness testimony the new moon occurred they would declare the Rosh Chodesh (a minor festival beginning each month) and send out messengers to notify the community. In the fourth century, Hillel established a fixed calendar based on mathematical and astronomical calculations. This calendar, still in use, standardized the length of months and the addition of months over the course of a 19-year cycle, so that the lunar calendar realigns with the solar years. An additional month (Adar II) is added in the 3rd, 6th, 8th, 11th, 14th, 17th, and 19th years of the cycle. The custom known as Birkat Hachodesh (Blessing the Month) is a post-Talmudic Ashkanaz ritual. It was added in an effort to make the congregation aware that Rosh Chodesh is approaching so that they could attend special festival services on that day. Please rise

May God renew us and all the house of Israel, with life and peace, gladness and joy, salvation and consolation; and let us say, Amen. -You may be seatedOriginally, the Jewish prayer service consisted of the Sh'ma and its Blessings; and the Tefillah. That was the entire communal Jewish service. Gradually, other readings were added. One of the most frequently-recited is Psalm 145, called either Praise of David (Tehilah L'David) or the Ashrei (because of its first word, Ashrei, Happy). It is an alphabetic poem. It is referred to once in the Talmud, but its importance is clear: “Eleazar b. Avina says: Whoever recites Ashrei three times daily, is sure to inherit the world to come.” Brachot 4b

(w) Ah-do-nai is near to all who cry out, to all who call out in truth. (x) God will fufill the hope of all the reverent; God will hear their cry and help them. ( y) You preserve those who love, Ah-do-nai, but the lawless You bring to grief. (z) My lips shall declare the glory of Ah-do-nai; let all flesh bless God’s holy name forever and ever. We will bless God now and always. Halleluyah!. - 132 -

Arise, Ah-do-nai, to Your resting place; You, and the ark of Your strength. Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness; and let Your loving ones shout for joy. For the sake of David Your servant, do not turn away the face of Your anointed. For I give You good doctrine; forsake not my Teaching. It is a tree of life to those who cling to it, and all of its supporters are happy. Its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its paths are peace. Turn us to You, Ah-do-nai, and we shall return; renew our days as of old.

Reader’s Kaddish

- Please rise -

Kaddish is commonly known as a mourner's prayer, but in fact, variations on the Kaddish prayer are routinely recited at many other times, and the prayer itself has nothing to do with death or mourning. Kaddish is a prayer that affirms our faith in God and our hope for the future. The Reader’s Kaddish separates units of prayer within a service.

Musaf Service 156 - Please remain standing for the Amidah -

Translation of Kaddish Glorified and sanctified is God's great name throughout the world created according to Ah-do-nai’s will. May God’s sovereignty be established in our lifetime and the life of all Israel, and let us say, Amen. May God’s great name be blessed forever and to all eternity. Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored be the name of the Holy One, source of blessing, beyond all the blessings and songs, beyond all the tributes spoken in the world; and say, Amen. May the prayers of the whole House of Israel be accepted by our Father in Heaven. And let us say: Amen. May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us and for all Israel; and say, Amen. May the One who creates peace in the celestial heights, create peace for us and for all Israel; and let us say, Amen.

The Musaf Service s© qEn The Additional Service The conclusion of our Shabbat morning service is the Musaf (additional) service. Perhaps you're wondering, "Why, after all the prayers we've said, do we need an additional service?" That's a fair question with an historical answer. Our services can be traced back to sacrificial services in King Solomon’s Temple. On Shabbat and specific holidays, an additional (musaf) sacrifice was brought, because of the special nature of the day. To recall that tradition, we today offer an additional service. Its major content is the Amidah, which begins and ends with the same blessings as the morning Amidah, but whose middle blessing is different. The Musaf Amidah is similar to the morning Amidah, with the same opening and closing blessings, but with a different middle blessing. This middle blessing focuses on the sanctification of the Sabbath day through the special sacrifice which was offered in the Temple. With the destruction of the Temple and the cessation of sacrifices, we recite the portions of the Torah which deal with these sacrifices. The Amidah is completed quietly after Kedusha. We conclude by singing Sim Shalom, the prayer for peace together. The Musaf service is concluded by the Reader’s Kaddish. Following the Musaf service are the concluding prayers, the "cool down" from the worship services which parallels the opening "warm up" said at the start of the service. This section includes Ein Ke-loheinu, Aaleinu, Mourners' Kaddish and ends with Adon Olam. The service ends about noon. After the service is over, the greetings "Shabbat Shalom" or "Good Shabbos" are heard as members wish each other a day of peace, to begin what is hoped will be a week of peace.

Amidah

For an alternative version of the Amidah continue on page 144

d ci n r

The Amidah is the central prayer of all four services: Shacharit (morning), Mincha (afternoon), Maariv (evening), and Mussaf (additional). The word Amidah literally means standing, because it is recited while standing. It is also known as Shemoneh Esrei, meaning eighteen, because it originally consisted of eighteen blessings, and as Tefilah (prayer) because it is the most important Jewish prayer. The Amidah is a person's opportunity to approach God in private prayer, and should therefore be said quietly. Kavanah - This prayer of intent is recited prior to the silent Amidah. While reciting this prayer, it is customary to take three small steps forward as if one is approaching royalty. This custom is derived from the actions of Abraham who "came forward" to pray for the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:23). Where there is not much space, it has become the practice to take several tiny steps back before taking the three symbolic steps forward..

161 Musaf Service Kavanah - This prayer of intent is recited prior to the silent Amidah. While reciting this prayer, it is customary to take three small steps forward as if one is approaching royalty. This custom is derived from the actions of Abraham who "came forward" to pray for the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:23). Where there is not much space, it has become the practice to take several tiny steps back before taking the three symbolic steps forward..

Help us to achieve true and everlasting peace. Give us the wisdom to understand that there is no peace until all of God’s children live together in peace.

May all who plan evil against me abandon their schemes. Hear my words and help me, Ah-do-nai, because You are compassionate, because You are almighty, because You are holy, because You are loving, because You reveal Your Torah. May You find delight in the words of my mouth and in the emotions of my heart, Ah-do-nai, my strength and my salvation.

Reader’s Kaddish

Musaf Service 181

Kaddish is commonly known as a mourner's prayer, but in fact, variations on the Kaddish prayer are routinely recited at many other times, and the prayer itself has nothing to do with death or mourning. Kaddish is a prayer that affirms our faith in God and our hope for the future. The Reader’s Kaddish separates units of prayer within a service.

Aleinu

Epi¥lr¨

Please rise

Aleinu, proclaims God as Melech (sovereign) over a united humanity. It has been recited as the closing prayer of the three daily services ever since the 13th century. According to tradition, Joshua composed it at the time he crossed the Jordan and entered the Land of Promise. It was first introduced into the daily prayer service by Rav, founder of the Sura Academy (early third century). Aleinu is also recited as, as an introduction to Malchuyot(verses of sovereignty), part of the Musaf service on the High Holidays.

It is up to us to thank the Ruler of All, to praise the the author of Creation, who did not make us like other nations, who created us as a unique people, and set us on a separate path toward a special destiny. And we bend our knees, and bow down, and give thanks, before the Ruler, the Ruler of Rulers, the Holy One, who created heaven and earth. Who dwells is in the heavens above, with a powerful Presence in the highest heights You are our God, there is no other. You are eternal, there is nothing else. As it is written in Your Torah: “Know this day and take to your heart that Ah-do-nai is the only God in heaven above and on the earth below—there is none other.

Because We Believe Because we believe in You, Ah-do-nai, We hope for the day when Your majesty will prevail, When all false gods will be removed, And all idolatry will be abolished; When the world will turn their hearts to God, When all humanity will invoke Your name, And the wicked will be turned to You. May all the living fervently acknowledge that to You every knee must bend, every tongue vow loyalty. Before You may all bow in reverence, Proclaiming Your glory, accepting Your sovereignty. May Your reign come soon and last forever; For sovereignty is Yours alone, now and evermore. So is it written in Your Torah: "Ah-do-nai shall reign forever and ever." The prophet too, proclaimed this promise: "Ah-do-nai shall reign over all the earth; On that day Ah-do-nai shall be One and God’s name One." zFxM¨ mili ¦ l¦ ` ¡ d¨ e§ ,ux«¤`¨ d¨ on¦ milEN ¦ B¦ xia£ ¦ rd© l§ ,L«G¤ rª zx«¤ ¤`t§ z¦ A§ dx¨d¥ n§ zF`x§ l¦ ,Epi«¥dŸl` ¡ d¨Fdi§ LN§ d¤Ew© p§ oM¥ l©re§ lM¨ Erc¥§ ie§ ExiM© «¦ i .ux«¤`¨ i¥rW § x¦ lM¨ Li«¤l`¥ zFpt§ d© l§ ,L«¤nW § a¦ E`x§ w§ i¦ xU ¨ a¨ i¥pA§ lk¨ e§ ,iC© W © zEkl§ n© A§ mlFr ¨ oT¥ z© l§ ,oEzx¥M¨ i¦ ,Ep«Y¥ i¦ xw¨ i§ Ln§ W ¦ cFak§ l¦ e§ ,ElŸR« i¦ e§ Erx§ k§ i¦ Epi«¥dŸl` ¡ d¨Fdi§ Li«p¤ t¨ l§ .oFWl¨ lM¨ ra© X ¨ Y¦ ,Kx«¤ ¤A lM¨ rx©k§ Y¦ Ll§ iM¦ ,la¥ z¥ ia¥ WFi § .c¤re¨ mlFr ¨ l§ dx¨d¥ n§ mdi ¤ l£ ¥ r KŸln§ z¦ e§ ,L«¤zEkl§ n© lFr z`¤ mN¨ kª ElA§ wi © e¦ Key ha-mal-chut she-l'cha he,

Mourner’s Kaddish The Kaddish, an Aramaic prayer that is [almost] 2,000 years old, is recited in slightly different variations at every prayer service. Although one form of the Kaddish is recited in memory of the dead, the prayer itself says nothing about death; its theme is the greatness of God, reflected in its opening words: "Yitgadal ve-yitkadash, Shmei rabbah--May God’s name be magnified and made holy…. " The prayer's conclusion speaks of a future age in which God will redeem the world.

May God’s sovereignty be established in our lifetime and the life of all Israel, and let us say, Amen. May God’s great name be blessed forever and to all eternity. Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored be the name of the Holy One, source of blessing, beyond all the blessings and songs, beyond all the tributes spoken in the world; and let us say, Amen. May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us and for all Israel; and let us say, Amen. May the One who creates peace in the celestial heights, create peace for us and for all Israel; and let us say, Amen.

The Book of Kohelet (Ecclesiastes) - selected verses The book of Kohelet (Ecclesiastes) is one of the five scrolls (megillot). Kohelet, often called “the preacher,” is read in the synagogue on the holiday of Sukkot. One traditional explanation is that Kohelet, who is writing in the autumn of his life, is comparable to the Fall harvest. The autumn is a reminder of the winter to come, and the death of plants and trees. Kohelet’s views are those of a mature individual, closer to the end of life than to the beginning which would be represented by the buds of Spring. Reprinted from The Jewish Religion: A Companion, Oxford University Press.

“Shir HaShirim” – The Song of Songs “Shir HaShirim,” The Song of Songs, is one of the five “Megilot,” or Sacred Scrolls. It is a timeless allegory of the relationship between God and the People of Israel, in terms of the love between a man and a woman. It is recited on “Pesach,” the Holiday that celebrates the liberation of the Jewish People from slavery in Egypt. On “Shabbat Chol HaMoed,” the Shabbat that occurs during the Intermediate Days of the Holiday, or on the Seventh Day of that Holiday when Shabbat coincides with that day, the reading of the “Megilah” of “Shir HaShirim” is incorporated into the Services.

Akdamot- A Shavout reading prior to the 10 Commandments Akdamot is read in Israel on Shavuot, and on the first day of Shavuot in the Diaspora, after the Kohen is called to the Torah but before he recites the blessing. The Torah reading itself features the Ten Commandments. This alternate version of Akdamot was constructed, based on Psalm 119, by Rabbi Noah Golinkin and published by the Schechter Institute. The verse numbers appear in parentheses.

Happy are those whose way is blameless, who follow the teaching of Ahdonai: (1)

Prayer before a trip to Israel I / We rejoice that once again I / we can say, “Let us go the House of Ahdonai” Soon we will be standing within your gates, O Jerusalem, where the tribes of Israel made regular pilgrimage. We are taught that all Jews should to go up to Jerusalem and give thanks to Ahdonai. The thrones of justice were there, the thrones of the house of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem; may those who love her prosper. Let there be peace within her borders, prosperity within her homes. For the welfare of all, we speak only peace on her behalf. We pray for peace in Israel, and for peace in the world. May it be Your will, Ahdonai our God, and God of ancestors, guide our journey in peace. Lead us to your Holy Land in peace. As you begin your journey, take our prayers with you, May Ahdonai bless you throughout your journey. May you go on your way in peace.

Why is this book printed backwards? Hebrew is read from right to left. Given that this prayer book is a Hebrew text with english translation, the text follows the Hebrew format.

Why is Hebrew read from right to left? Rabbinic tradition teaches that the right side symbolizes greater spiritual revelation. The language of the Torah (Hebrew), the "Holy Tongue" in which Godliness is more revealed, is therefor read from right to left.
