חיברתי בעקבות המלחמה תוספת ל”אבינו מלכנו” המיועדת להיות נישאת לאחר נוסח “אבינו מלכנו” הרגיל, הנאמר בבתי כנסת רבים עתה בימי המלחמה. בתי התוספת כוללים נושאים שאינם מוזכרים מפורשות בתפילה המסורתית. למעשה, אפשר גם לומר אותם בנפרד, בלי אמירת “אבינו מלכנו”.
I composed an addendum to “Avinu Malkeinu”, which is intended for recitation following the traditional version, which is said in many synagogues now during the “Ḥarvot Barzel” war. The additional stanzas include topics that are not explicitly mentioned in the traditional prayer. It is also possible to say them as an independent prayer.

The Open Siddur Project is a volunteer-driven, non-profit, non-commercial, non-denominational, non-prescriptive, gratis & libre Open Access archive of contemplative praxes, liturgical readings, and Jewish prayer literature (historic and contemporary, familiar and obscure) composed in every era, region, and language Jews have ever prayed. Our goal is to provide a platform for sharing open-source resources, tools, and content for individuals and communities crafting their own prayerbook (siddur). Through this we hope to empower personal autonomy, preserve customs, and foster creativity in religious culture.
