אַחֵֽינוּ | Aḥeinu (Our siblings)

Contributed on: 26 Oct 2023 by Anonymous (translation) | Unknown Author(s) | Aharon N. Varady (editing/transcription) |

“Aḥeinu” is the final prayer in a set of supplications recited on Mondays and Thursdays as the Torah scroll is being prepared to be returned to the Aron. The prayer is first found with variations in wording in the surviving manuscripts of the Seder Rav Amram Gaon (ca. 9th c.). . . .


רָנּוּ שָׁמַֽיִם | Ronnu shamayim, a piyyut celebrating the Decalogue by Elyaqim

Contributed on: 03 Jun 2022 by Stephen Belsky | Anonymous (translation) | Elyaqim haPayyetan | Ḳaraite Jews of America | Aharon N. Varady (editing/transcription) |

This piyyut is signed “Elyaqim Ḥazaq.” Alas, we do not know who this Elyaqim was or even whether he was a rabbinic or Karaite Jew. The piyyut has been preserved for us in the Karaite cycle (Vilna printing press, 1852, Vol. IV, p. 135.) and there are several other piyyutim signed with his name. . . .
