This is the anthology of teḥinot, Devotional Exercises for the Use of Jewish Women on Public and Domestic Occasions (1852), translated by Miriam Wertheimer from Taḥnunei bat Yehudah (1846) by Meïr Letteris. On the title page and the preface, the author of the work translated by Wertheimer was somehow misidentified as Wolfgang Wessely. Categories: Tags: 19th century C.E., 57th century A.M., English Jewry, English Translation, English vernacular prayer, Jewish Women's Prayers, תחינות teḥinot Contributor(s): “Gebet einer Frau, wenn Seuchen oder epidemische Krankheiten herrschen” was written by Meïr haLevi Letteris and published in תָּחֲנוּנֵי בַּת יְהוּדָה (Taḥnunei bat Yehudah): Andachtsbuch für Israelitische Frauenzimmer (1846), pp. 110-112. In 1852, this teḥinah was translated into English (with a short prayer added for children) by Miriam Wertheimer under the title “Prayer when epidemic diseases prevail” in Devotional Exercises for the Use of Jewish Women on Public and Domestic Occasions (1852), pp. 70-71. The sad inspiration for this prayer was likely the 1846-1860 Cholera Pandemic.
