A morning prayer for young girls composed in Magyar and published in 1930, with English translation. Categories: Tags: 20th century C.E., 57th century A.M., children's prayers, Hungarian Jewry, Jewish Women's Prayers, Magyar vernacular prayer Contributor(s): A paraliturgical prayer for the government presented opposite Hanoten T’shuah in Rabbi Simon Hevesi’s siddur Ateret Shalom v’Emet (1911). Categories: Tags: 20th century C.E., 57th century A.M., Magyar vernacular prayer, paraliturgical prayer for the government Contributor(s): Modeled after the prayer Hanoten T’shuah, this patriotic paraliturgical prayer for the Kingdom of Hungary by Rabbi Gyula Fischer was published in the prayerbook for Jewish women, Rachel: imák zsidó nők számára (1908). Categories: Tags: 20th century C.E., 57th century A.M., Franz Joseph I of Austria, הנותן תשועה haNotén Teshuah, Hungarian Jewry, Jewish Women's Prayers, Magyar vernacular prayer, paraliturgical hanoten teshuah Contributor(s): Psalm 151a is unlike any other psalm, because it is openly and clearly a description of David’s own life. He describes his childhood as the youngest of the family, and his anointing. It may have not been included as part of the Masoretic canon because this dissimilarity leads to just a whiff of pseudepigraphical overcompensation. [The psalm is designated Psalms 151a to destinguish it from the text of Psalms 151 found in the Septuagint. –ANV] Categories: Tags: Contributor(s): Psalm 154 seems to be a hymn of communal eating, very appropriate for the communal life of Qumran, but also features a very Proverbs-like anthropomorphization of Wisdom as a woman. Of the three apocryphal psalms recorded in the Dead Sea Scrolls, this one seems the most likely to have been written with sectarian intent, which may have been why it wasn’t included in the Masoretic canon. Categories: Tags: Contributor(s): Psalm 155 is an incomplete acrostic (the Dead Sea Scrolls text records it going from ב to נ, and the Syriac can be reconstructed to include up to פ) with similarities to petitionary psalms like Psalm 3, 22, and 143. It is unclear why it was not included in the Masoretic canon, but one can hazard a guess that it was just not familiar to the compilers. Categories: Tags: Contributor(s): The haftarah reading for Parashat b’Midbar, in English translation, transtropilated. Categories: Tags: 21st century C.E., 58th century A.M., Cantillated readings in English, English Translation, הפטרות haftarot, transtropilation Contributor(s): | ||
