To Pray As A Jew: A Guide To The Prayer Book And The Synagogue Service

To Pray As A Jew: A Guide To The Prayer Book And The Synagogue Service
by: Hayim H. Donin


Editorial Review:

A handsome and indispensable guide to Jewish prayer--unexcelled for beginners as well as the religiously observant.

The Jewish prayer book, or siddur, remains the standard text from which children in Jewish schools learn to read. Yet many adult Jews are unfamiliar with the siddur and are confused by prayer services. Other know the prayer book's Hebrew texts by rote but do not really comprehend them. Writing for both kinds of readers in this classic devotional guide, Rabbi Hayim Halevy Donin reviews the basic shape of a Jewish prayer service and then begins his survey of prayers (all of which are quoted here in both Hebrew and English) with the Shemoneh Esrei, the core of every service. One of the most appealing qualities of the book is the author's penchant for reminding readers to be mindful of the practical dimension of prayer life: "Unless prayer is also accompanied by the traits of character and ethical behavior that Judaism demands, prayer is no indication of piety at all. One need only stop to consider that in real life, evil men pray too." --Michael Joseph Gross

Customer Reviews:

Avg. Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0

A Great Place To Start:

This book introduces Jewish prayer from the history, reasons for, how to participate, motivation and the actual prayer. I have been studying this well written guide for 4 months. It takes one from a viewer to participant.

Jewish Prayer:

An excellent book for Jew or Messianic believer in understanding the tradition for prayer in the synagogue.

Knowing more about our Savior:

I will rate this book high. The more you know about Jewish prayers and their ways the more you know about what Jesus is saying in his word. He was and is a Jew and we should learn from them.
Thank you.
Judy Stevens

To Pray As A Jew:

Fantastic book, if you ever wanted to know about Judaism and what goes on in the Sabbath worship, and why or where did that come from. For new converts or Messianic Jewish members this is a book that should be in your library.
