A great help in learning hebrew.:
I have returned to synagogue after a 30 year absence. I find I can not read the hebrew prayers, nor can I read the english as fast as the prayers are recited in Hebrew. This book and the Prayer Book Hebrew have helped me to recite much better, and more importantly, understand what I am saying. This is an excellent adjunct to the study of the Prayerbook.
