Synopsis

This historic, gender-sensitive prayer book includes the most comprehensive transliteration of any prayer book in the Reform movement, and a special and timely section devoted to prayers and meditations for 'Troubled Times'. This book reflects the traditions of classical liturgy and of Liberal-Reform Judaism, yet it contains many innovations such as: masterful new translations, with new accompanying passages; alongside each of the classical prayers is an explanation of its content and significance, establishing the prayer's place in the structure of the liturgy; thematic cross-references connect readers to other passages in the book, enhancing appreciation of the text and offering an interactive, highly personal approach to prayer; special innovations include: a selection of readings for 'Troubled Times'; prayers for healing; a betrothal prayer; a special selection of newly-translated Psalms, and blessings and rituals for individuals and communities, at home and in the synagogue; and, new readings and new inserts for the major holidays.
