Synopsis

In an accessible, question-and-answer format, "Jewish Prayer, the Right Way" examines a wide variety of different aspects of Jewish prayer and guides readers through the answers in an understandable and entertaining way. The book delves thoroughly into topics of concern for priests and leaders of public prayer, but also discusses matters of concern for any Jewish worshipper, such as those dealing with the many facets of the Shema prayer, standing versus sitting during various prayers, and special synagogue customs. With its engaging style, this guide dispels the notion that the study of religious law is dry and not as meaningful as other aspects of Torah study.
