Cantor Certificate Psalms Cantor Certificate Psalms Psalm Repertoire Options, Explained As you prepare for each of the Cantor Certifications, we want to ensure that you are able to find the Psalms that are provided on the repertoire lists. Since churches use music from various publishers, each of the Psalm lists incorporates selections from all of the publishers, and in varying styles. So that you don’t have to review every Psalm on every list, here is some additional information to help you narrow down the Psalm choice that is best for you to prepare for your certificate. The list of BCC Psalms was compiled with the thought that no matter which major publisher a church uses to purchase their missals or hymnals, their cantors would have access to a majority of the psalms needed for the certificate. The list of ICC Psalms includes a variety of publishers (like the BCC). However, not all of the psalms are found in the missal or hymnal. A cantor may need to purchase an octavo using the order numbers provided on the application form. However, there are plenty of options that would not require cantors to make a purchase. You may simply access and sing psalms found in their parish hymnal. The CCC Psalms are not as easily accessible as the BCC and ICC psalms, in part because they are more challenging settings. Again, the order numbers are on the application. Simply go to the publisher’s website (or give them a call) and enter the item number. The psalm should appear as the search result, and you are ready to order. There are psalms you can access in your hymnal or missal, but not as many as the other certificates.

  • 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.

  • The Month of Elul Is the Last Month of the Jewish Civil Year
    The Jewish Month of Elul A Month of Mercy and Forgiveness Hodesh haRahamin vehaSelihot The month of Elul is the last month of the Jewish civil year. However, according to the biblical Calendar, it is also the sixth month, counting from Nisan which is called the “first of the months” in the Torah (Ex. 12:2). This document explores the spirituality of Elul for Jews and Judaism. Etz Hayim—“Tree of Life” Publishing “It is a Tree of Life to all who hold fast to It” (Prov. 3:18) The Month of Elul The month of Elul1 is the last month of the Jewish civil year. However, according to the biblical Calendar, it is also the sixth month, counting from Nisan which is called the “first of the months” in the Torah (Ex. 12:2). Elul precedes the month of Tishrei (called the seventh month, Numbers 29:1). Placed as the last of the months and followed by the New Year, Elul invites an introspective reflection on the year that has been. Elul begins the important liturgical season of Return and Repentance which culminates with Rosh HaShanah,2 the Days of Awe3 and Yom Kippur4 (1-10 Tishrei). Elul takes its place as an important preparation time for repentance. Elul follows the months of Tammuz and Av, both catastrophic months for Israel according to tradition. Tammuz is remembered as the month in which the people of Israel built the Golden Calf (Ex. 32) and Av, the month of the sin of the spies (Num. 13). The proximity of Tammuz and Av to Elul underscores the penitential mode of this, the last of the months, before the new beginning and spiritual re-creation that is precipitated with the New Year beginning the following month of Tishrei.

  • Notes on Psalm 27. Temple Micah Study Group, 9/17/19 Virginia Spatz, [email protected], Songeveryday.Org
    Notes on Psalm 27. Temple Micah study group, 9/17/19 Virginia Spatz, [email protected], songeveryday.org NAMES OF GOD The four-letter name, YHVH, appears 13 times throughout the psalm. YHVH is modified with attributes in verse 1: “my light,” “my salvation,” and “fortress of my life.” Verse 9 speaks of "God [Elohei] of my salvation." ECHOES In addition to "my salvation" in vv. 1 and 9 (above), the first half has other echoes in the second half: • “life (living),” verses 1 and 13; • “my adversaries,” verses 2 and 12; • “my heart," verses 3 and 8; • “arise,” verses 3 and 12; • “seek,” verses 4 and 8; and • “conceal,” verses 5 and 9. Most of these repetitions involve similar images, but “conceal” is mirrored. It appears first in a protective image: God “will conceal me [yastireini] under the cover of Hist tent” (27:5); later, the same verb is used in the desperate “don’t conceal [al-tasteir] Your presence” (27:9). PROTECTION & FRAGILITY A variety of dwelling words: (beit YHVH — house of God] (27:4] בְּבֵיהָוהְי-ת -יְהוָה • (b’heichalo — in His Temple] (27:4] בְּהֵיכָלו • (b’sukkah — in His “pavilion”] (27:5] בְּסֻכֹּה • (b’oheilo — in His tent] (27:6] בְּאָהֳלֹו • Commentary in Machzor Lev Shalem sees in these dwellings a “movement...to greater fragility,” (al) אַל from House and Temple to sukkah to tent. The machzor adds that repeated use of the word — do not hide (27:9), do not act angrily (27:9), do not forsake (27:9), do not abandon (27:9), and do not hand me over (27:10) — suggests “beneath the facade of confidence, great fear and feelings of abandonment are lurking.” -- Mahzor Lev Shalem, p.44 In addition to dwellings, the psalmist finds refuge on a rock (27:5) and is taken in [to a home] (27:10).

  • HIGH HOLY DAY WORKSHOP – Elul and Selichot 5 Things to Know
    1 HIGH HOLY DAY WORKSHOP – Elul and Selichot 5 Things to Know About Elul Elul is the Hebrew month that precedes the High Holy Days Some say that the Hebrew letters that comprise the word Elul – aleph, lamed, vav, lamed – are an acronym for “Ani l’dodi v’dodi li,” a verse from Song of Songs that means “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine.” Most often interpreted as love poetry between two people, the phrase also reflects the love between God and the Jewish people, especially at this season, as we assess our actions and behaviors during the past year and hope for blessings in the coming year. Several customs during the month of Elul are designed to remind us of the liturgical season and help us prepare ourselves and our souls for the upcoming High Holidays. 1. BLOWING THE SHOFAR Traditionally, the shofar is blown each morning (except on Shabbat) from the first day of Elul until the day before Rosh HaShanah. Its sound is intended to awaken the soul and kick start the spiritual accounting that happens throughout the month. In some congregations the shofar is sounded at the opening of each Kabbalat Shabbat service during Elul. 2. SAYING SPECIAL PRAYERS Selichot (special penitential prayers) are recited during the month of Elul. A special Selichot service is conducted late in the evening – often by candlelight – on the Saturday night a week before Rosh HaShanah. 3. VISITING LOVED ONES' GRAVES Elul is also a time of year during which Jews traditionally visit the graves of loved ones.

  • One Thing Psalm 27 Introduction – When Life Presses in Everybody's
    1 One Thing Psalm 27 Introduction – When Life Presses In Everybody’s got problems. If you don’t, you will. It’s a reality of life. Job, reflecting on his incredible misfortune, lamented, “…affliction does not come from the dust, nor does trouble sprout from the ground, but man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward. Job 5:6-7 It is the times of trouble that test the mettle of our soul – what we are made of. Difficulties reveal our inner motivations and values as we try to navigate the stormy sea of our circumstances. I’ve led a blessed life. I haven’t faced heavy persecution or threats to my physical safety. Still, all of my adult life, I’ve been a leader. And it is the leader’s calling to bring about change. Most folks resist change. I’m not complaining; it’s the way things are. While I haven’t had people threaten me with a knife or a gun, I’ve heard some tough criticism; sometimes it has shaken me to my core and taken a long time to process. Those may not be your issues. I know some of the troubles that many of you face and frankly, they are a lot more trying than what I’ve had to deal with. Some deal with evil people who are trying to assassinate their character. Some of you face the deep pain of betrayal - having been misunderstood by people that you deeply love and they have turned on you. Others face troubles at work that threaten your livelihood.
