Description

The Siddur from Its Sources is an essential part of any Jewish library.  The author has combed through the history of the Jewish prayer book to identify when each prayer was added.  The results are presented with captivating visuals, including a digitally enhanced presentation of the first known manuscript for each prayer, some dating back thousands of years!  There has never been a work that allows such intimate access to the source material that is the basis for the modern Jewish prayer book.

Your purchase includes access to an online database of freely available indexed resources, including hundreds of dated Genizah fragments, Siddur manuscripts and online articles.

This first volume includes the prayers for the weekday services, including all three daily prayers, special prayers for The New Month and reciting the Shema before going to sleep.
