Aharon N. Varady (digital imaging and document preparation)

Aharon Varady, founding director of the Open Siddur Project, is a copyright researcher and amateur book scanner. He prepares digital images and new digital editions of prayer books and related works in the Public Domain in order to make their constituent parts (prayers, translations, annotations, etc.) publicly accessible for collaborative transcription by project volunteers. (In some cases, he finds existing digital editions prepared by others that require correction and reformatting.) If you appreciate his efforts, please send him a kind note or contribute to his patreon account.

📖 מַחֲזוֹר לְראֹשׁ הַשָׁנָה (מנהג הספרדים) | Majzor leRosh haShanah (Libro de Oraciones para el Año Nuevo Hebreo), a bilingual Hebrew-Spanish maḥzor compiled and translated by Rabbi Meir Matsliaḥ Melamed (1976)

Contributed by: Aharon N. Varady (digital imaging and document preparation), Meir Matsliaḥ Melamed

מַחֲזוֹר לְראֹשׁ השנה Majzor leRosh Hashanah (1976) is the first edition of a bilingual Hebrew-Spanish nusaḥ Sefaradi Rosh haShanah prayerbook compiled and translated by Rabbi Meir Matsliaḥ Melamed (1920-1989). Rabbi Melamed had in 1971 been installed at the pulpit of the Cuban Sephardic Hebrew Congregation, after having served previously in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil where his 1966 Hebrew-Portuguese siddur Tefilat Masliaḥ was first published. For both prayerbooks, as no Hebrew type with vocalization and cantillation marks was available to Rabbi Melamed, liturgy was reproduced from images of older siddurim. Rabbi Melamed’s translation appears to the sides of these images and his commentary underneath.

מחזור לראש השנה The Form of Prayers for the New Year According to the Custom of the German & Polish Jews was translated by Isaac Levi in 1807, ostensibly as a “revision” of a 1795 maḥzor compiled, translated, and published by David Levi (no relation). This later printing of Isaac Levi’s translation, made by the printer H. Abrahams (“Tsvi bar Michael” in Hebrew) in 1848, mistakenly credits “David Levy” instead of Isaac Levi. I’ve provided both editions so that their contents can more easily be compared with one another. –Aharon Varady
