Psalms of Praise: “Pesukei Dezimra ”
Dr. Yael Ziegler Pardes The Psalms 1 Psalms of Praise: “Pesukei DeZimra” 1) Shabbat 118b אמר רבי יוסי: יהא חלקי מגומרי הלל בכל יום. איני? והאמר מר: הקורא הלל בכל יום - הרי זה מחרף ומגדף! - כי קאמרינן - בפסוקי דזמרא R. Yosi said: May my portion be with those who complete the Hallel every day. Is that so? Did not the master teach: “Whoever recites the Hallel every day, he is blaspheming and scoffing?” [R. Yosi explained:] When I said it, it was regarding Pesukei DeZimra. Rashi Shabbat 118b הרי זה מחרף ומגדף - שנביאים הראשונים תיקנו לומר בפרקים לשבח והודיה, כדאמרינן בערבי פסחים, )קיז, א(, וזה הקוראה תמיד בלא עתה - אינו אלא כמזמר שיר ומתלוצץ. He is blaspheming and scoffing – Because the first prophets establish to say those chapters as praise and thanks… and he who recites it daily not in its proper time is like one who sings a melody playfully. פסוקי דזמרא - שני מזמורים של הילולים הללו את ה' מן השמים הללו אל בקדשו . Pesukei DeZimra – Two Psalms of Praise: “Praise God from the heavens” [Psalm 148]; “Praise God in His holiness” [Psalm 150.] Massechet Soferim 18:1 Dr. Yael Ziegler Pardes The Psalms 2 אבל צריכין לומר אחר יהי כבוד... וששת המזמורים של כל יום; ואמר ר' יוסי יהא חלקי עם המתפללים בכל יום ששת המזמורים הללו 3) Maharsha Shabbat 118b ה"ז מחרף כו'. משום דהלל נתקן בימים מיוחדים על הנס לפרסם כי הקדוש ברוך הוא הוא בעל היכולת לשנות טבע הבריאה ששינה בימים אלו ...ומשני בפסוקי דזמרה כפירש"י ב' מזמורים של הלולים כו' דאינן באים לפרסם נסיו אלא שהם דברי הלול ושבח דבעי בכל יום כדאמרי' לעולם יסדר אדם שבחו של מקום ואח"כ יתפלל וק"ל: He is blaspheming. -
On the Proper Use of Niggunim for the Tefillot of the Yamim Noraim
On the Proper Use of Niggunim for the Tefillot of the Yamim Noraim Cantor Sherwood Goffin Faculty, Belz School of Jewish Music, RIETS, Yeshiva University Cantor, Lincoln Square Synagogue, New York City Song has been the paradigm of Jewish Prayer from time immemorial. The Talmud Brochos 26a, states that “Tefillot kneged tmidim tiknum”, that “prayer was established in place of the sacrifices”. The Mishnah Tamid 7:3 relates that most of the sacrifices, with few exceptions, were accompanied by the music and song of the Leviim.11 It is therefore clear that our custom for the past two millennia was that just as the korbanot of Temple times were conducted with song, tefillah was also conducted with song. This is true in our own day as well. Today this song is expressed with the musical nusach only or, as is the prevalent custom, nusach interspersed with inspiring communally-sung niggunim. It once was true that if you wanted to daven in a shul that sang together, you had to go to your local Young Israel, the movement that first instituted congregational melodies c. 1910-15. Most of the Orthodox congregations of those days – until the late 1960s and mid-70s - eschewed the concept of congregational melodies. In the contemporary synagogue of today, however, the experience of the entire congregation singing an inspiring melody together is standard and expected. Are there guidelines for the proper choice and use of “known” niggunim at various places in the tefillot of the Yamim Noraim? Many are aware that there are specific tefillot that must be sung "...b'niggunim hanehugim......b'niggun yodua um'sukon um'kubal b'chol t'futzos ho'oretz...mimei kedem." – "...with the traditional melodies...the melody that is known, correct and accepted 11 In Arachin 11a there is a dispute as to whether song is m’akeiv a korban, and includes 10 biblical sources for song that is required to accompany the korbanos. -
Psalm 136 MEMORY VERSE PS ALM 136:1 “Oh, Give Thanks to the Lord, for He Is Good! for His M Ercy Endures Forever.”
Lesson 161 Remembering What God Has Done Psalm 136 MEMORY VERSE PS ALM 136:1 “Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His m ercy endures forever.” WHAT YOU WILL NEED: Two small cords or yarn long enough to make a bracelet. Two copies of the “Creation Memory Match Game” curriculum template for each pair of children, white cardstock, crayons and scissors. Butcher paper and markers. ATTENTION GETTER! Memory Bracelets For this activity you will need two small cords or yarn long enough to make a bracelet. Explain to the children that in today’s lesson we are going to learn about the importance of remembering how God has been faithful in our lives. Ask the children to think of several things for which they are thankful. The object will be to tie a not for each thing God had done in their lives to help them to remember. Begin with your bracelet. Have a volunteer help you by holding the ends of two cords. You will hold the other two ends. Explain ways that God has been faithful in your life (for example, “He has provided me with a wonderful family, a good job, helped me in a difficult time, etc.”) Tie a knot for each thing you are thankful for (Optional – place a colorful bead in each knot to make the bracelet more decorative). Leave space between each knot. After sharing four or five things tie the bracelet around your wrist. Have the children split into pairs. Give each child their cords and have them take turns with their partner helping to tie the knots and sharing with each other how God has been faithful in their lives. -
By the Waters of Babylon (Psalm 136)
BY THE WATERS OF BABYLON (P SALM 136) Sung after the Polyeleos on the Sundays of the Prodigal Son, the Last Judgment, and Forgiveness Sunday By the waters of Babylon, there we sat down and we wept when we remembered Sion. Alleluia. Upon the willows in the midst thereof did we hang our instruments. Alleluia. For there, they that had taken us captive asked us for words of song; And they that had led us away asked us for a hymn, saying: sing us one of the songs of Sion. Alleluia. How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a strange land? Alleluia. If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten. Alleluia. Let my tongue cleave to my throat, if I remember thee not, If I set not Jerusalem above all others, as at the head of my joy. Alleluia. Remember, O Lord, the sons of Edom, in the day of Jerusalem, Who said: Lay waste, lay waste to her, even to the foundations thereof. Alleluia. O daughter of Babylon, thou wretched one, blessed shall he be who shall reward thee wherewith thou hast rewarded us. Alleluia. Blessed shall he be who shall seize and dash thine infants against the rock. Alleluia. General Points: Psalm 137 (Greek numbering: Psalm 136) the Septuagint makes it one of the lamentations of Jeremiah, naming him for the author of it. Slavonic Psalter: “For David, by Jeremiah, in the Captivity” Many in Kingdom of Judah were deported to Babylon Laments the Babylonian conquest of Jerusalem in 586 BC. Babylon = “confusion” Usage: It is only sung in church the three Sundays that precede Great Lent. -
Erev Rosh Hashana 5776 Avinu Malkeinu Rabbi Vernon Kurtz
EREV ROSH HASHANA 5776 AVINU MALKEINU RABBI VERNON KURTZ As we gather here on the eve of Rosh Hashana, I must tell you I can’t wait for the end of Neilah on Yom Kippur. And, it is not for the reason you are thinking of. The last prayer that we recite in the Neilah service is the Avinu Malkeinu prayer. In full-throated singing our community joins together to chant one last time the final verse of that ancient prayer. As the Ark is closed I always feel that our prayers have wings going up to heaven in this last moment of the Ten Days of Penitence. It is a special moment for me and, I think, for all of us. We commence our High Holy Day experience this evening as one community and we conclude it at Neilah in the same fashion. The prayer Avinu Malkeinu, not only because of its last verse, but because of its history and meaning, is a central one to the High Holiday liturgy. We recite it every day of the Ten Days of Penitence except for Shabbat when penitential prayers such as these are not considered appropriate. In time for the High Holy Day season a new book appeared, edited by Rabbi Lawrence Hoffman. It is entitled Naming God – Avinu Malkeinu - Our Father, Our King. Authors from across the globe wrote essays about the prayer, its history, language, metaphors, lessons about G- d and about us, and its meaning for today. We know that Avinu Malkeinu is one of our most ancient prayers. -

I Want to Talk About One Word
Change Rabbi Jeff Saxe Temple Rodef Shalom, Falls Church, Virginia Sermon for Yom Kippur 5769 October 9, 2008 I can’t remember whether it was in the 80’s or inside of the moment day to day, you might the 90’s that I first started seeing this bumper have no idea how much you’ve changed until sticker, but it’s been in my consciousness for there you are, on the bema, holding the Torah years, and maybe you’ve seen it too. It’s for the first time, and then actually publicly usually on an old Volkswagen Bug or a family thanking your parents for everything they do station wagon next to other stickers for for you! Or maybe the change sinks in later different causes, and it’s a spin on the more when you are looking at your Bat-Mitzvah vernacular two-word phrase we all know: the pictures. You see a person in the photo bumper sticker says, “Change Happens.” album who is much different from the person you used to think you were. The same thing Change, of course, is the word of the day. It goes for our wedding pictures, and pictures is the presidential election that has led me to with new grandchildren. Every year we are focus my thoughts on it this year. However, I different from the year before. It could be want to tell you that this is not a political why Jews read the same stories from the sermon but a personal one, and it is the Torah, year after year. -

Kenesset Israel Torah Center Yom Kippur Guide 2777
Kenesset Israel Torah Center Yom Kippur Guide 2777 Welcome! Welcome to Yom Kippur at Kenesset Israel Torah Center! The High Holidays are a time when Jews all over the world, of all denominations and approaches to the tradition observance, come together to pray to God, to do teshuvah - to repent of our past misdeeds - and to celebrate. These are days of expressing gratitude, awe, and remorse, days of asking forgiveness and forgiving others. The liturgy that we recite on Yom Kippur is poignant and beautiful, but there is a lot of it—services are long and there are literally hundreds of pages of prayers to recite. When you find yourself lost, bored, or simply overwhelmed by unfamiliar prayers, the pace of the davening, or the sheer length of the service, I invite you to use this packet to guide you through the services and offer you inspiration along the way. Additionally, I encourage you to read the prayers in a language you understand. It is more important to understand the prayers than to try to say or read them in Hebrew. May you be inscribed and sealed in the book of life! G’mar Chatima Tova, Rabbi Garth Silberstein Navigating the High Holiday Services A. Some Sage Advice “Embodying the rhythm and texts of the Yamim Nora'im [High Holidays] requires real work. I need to find my way into the machzor, into the days themselves, into the service, as I sit in the pews. It can feel overwhelming, relentless, perhaps especially on Yom Kippur when we all regress a bit, I think, and eventually start flipping through the book to the end, wondering exactly how many hours, how many minutes to until I can sit, enjoy that bagel and lox, that bit of lokshin kugel, a few sips of water. -

So God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
