Sort most recent first? The Ḳaddish d’Rabbanan in Aramaic with its German translation by Franz Rosenzweig. . . . Categories: Tags: 20th century C.E., 57th century A.M., German Jewry, German translation, קדיש דרבנן Ḳaddish D'Rabanan Contributor(s): A paraliturgical reading of an abridged mourner’s ḳaddish by Rabbi Daniel Brenner set side-by-side with the (amended) Aramaic text. . . . Categories: Tags: 21st century C.E., 58th century A.M., interpretive translation, North America, paraliturgical ḳaddish Contributor(s): Jews use the Kaddish to mourn the dead, though it has in it only one word — “nechamata,” consolations – which hints at mourning. And this word itself is used in a puzzling way, once we look at it with care. As we will see below, it may be especially appropriate in time of war. The interpretive English translation below may also be appropriate for prayers of mourning and hope in wartime by other spiritual and religious communities. In this version, changes in the traditional last line of the Hebrew text specifically include not only peace for the people Israel (as in the traditional version) but also for the children of Abraham and Hagar through Ishmael (Arabs and Muslims) and for all the life-forms who dwell upon this planet. . . . Categories: Tags: 21st century C.E., 58th century A.M., Abrahamic, Aleph, ecumenical prayers, interpretive translation, קדיש יתום Mourner's Ḳaddish, Paraliturgical Mourner's Kaddish, Renewal Contributor(s): What the Rabbis taught about teaching and learning was that all Torah study should begin and end with blessings, just as eating does. Often, in liberal Jewish circles today, these blessings are not done. But without them, it is easier for Torah study to feel like a mere academic discussion, devoid of spirit. And where the blessings are said but only by rote, it is easier for Torah study to feel merely antiquarian and automatic. In Jewish-renewal style, how can we bring new kavvanah — spiritual meaning, intention, focus, intensity — to these blessings — and therefore to the process of Torah study itself? . . .

Categories: Tags: 21st century C.E., 58th century A.M., ecumenical prayers, English vernacular prayer, קדיש יתום Mourner's Ḳaddish, North America, Northampton, prayers of orphans Contributor(s): A meditation on living through the lens of dying. . . . Categories: Tags: 21st century C.E., 58th century A.M., English vernacular prayer, Gratitude, Paraliturgical Mourner's Kaddish Contributor(s): This text takes the basic idea of the Baladi-rite ‘Brikh Shmeh d’Kudsha Brikh Hu’ and adapts it for the Askenazi nusach of the Kaddish. It can be used when praying alone wherever a minyan would say the entire Kaddish. It could also be recited by a community in unison out loud when it can’t make a minyan, to show that even if we don’t have a full minyan, we still welcome mourners as part of our community. . . .

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.
ויהי נעם אדני אלהינו עלינו ומעשה ידינו כוננה עלינו ומעשה ידינו כוננהו "May the pleasantness of אדֹני our elo’ah be upon us; may our handiwork be established for us — our handiwork, may it be established." –Psalms 90:17
