Our new Shabbat and Festival prayer book, Siddur Lev Shalem, provides explanations, enrichment, and transliterations to enhance our prayer experience. Siddur Lev Shalem (meaning “full, content heart”) includes both the traditional Shabbat and festival prayers and those written by modern poets and writers.
The siddur draws from more than 500 different sources – with writings from contemporary authors – and includes ancient blessings that date back to the first millennium in the land of Israel, as well as traditions from the full array of Jewish cultures – North African, Italian, Sephardic, Middle Eastern, Ashkenazi – across the range of Jewish history from ancient times to the contemporary.
There are many features to explore in this new siddur including a beautiful, prayerful translation that faithfully renders the Hebrew. We hope to become familiar with the Siddur over time and enjoy both familiar and new expressions and patterns in our prayer. Please feel free to point out a comment or insight that you find meaningful or moving. Shabbat Shalom!
