tag: 15th century C.E. Sorted Chronologically (old to new). Sort most recent first? The text of the piyyut Ein Keloheinu from a 1483 Judeo-Italian translation of the siddur (British Library Or. 2443), along with a transcription into Italian script, a normative Italian modernization, and the Hebrew and English. Categories: Tags: 15th century C.E., 53rd century A.M., addenda, אין כאלהינו Ein kEloheinu, Italian Jewry, Italian vernacular prayer, Nusaḥ Italḳi, פיוטים piyyuṭim, Roman minhag Contributor(s): From the Morning Blessings (Birkhot ha-Shaḥar) of the Seder tefilot be-targum le-Shuʾadit [סדר תפילות בתרגום לשואדית], a translation of the Siddur into Judaeo-Provençal dating from the 14th-15th century providing the following blessing for women. Categories: Tags: Contributor(s): This is the piyyut “Eyumah Nikhtrah (Lo, the Mighty Nation…)” by Isaac ben Meshulam for maariv (after the shema) on the second night of Shavuot, was first published in Adler and Davis’s Maḥzor for Shavuot, Avodat Ḥag ha-Shavuot (1909), pp. 178-179. Categories: Tags: 15th century C.E., 52nd century A.M., acrostic, Alphabetic Acrostic, מערבות maaravot, פיוטים piyyuṭim, rhyming translation Contributor(s): An early printing of the 42 divine name letter acrostic piyyut, Ana b’Khoaḥ. Elijah began saying: The Italian Jewish community is one of the oldest continuous Jewish communities on the planet, dating back to the Roman empire at the latest.The Italian Jewish nusaḥ preserves several archaic practices that Ashkenazi and Sephardi rites no longer follow, many of which were found in gaonic siddurim and preserved only among the Italians. One fascinating custom of the Italian Jews is the recitation of what Ashkenazim and Sephardim call “Kol Nidrei” not in Aramaic, but in Hebrew, under the name “Kol N’darim.” This custom, also found among the Romaniotes of Greece, is elsewhere only found in the siddur of Rav Amram Gaon. The text included here is transcribed, niqqud and all, directly from a 1469 Italian-rite siddur found in the British Library. The scribe uses several non-standard vocalizations, which have been marked in editors’ notes. Categories: Tags: Contributor(s): This is the philosophical-creed-as-piyyut, Yigdal, by Daniel ben Judah Dayyan. Yigdal means “Magnify [O Living God]” and is based on the 13 Articles of Faith formulated by Maimonides (1135-1204). Daniel ben Judah spent eight years improving his piyyut, completing Yigdal in 1404. This was not the only metrical presentment of the 13 Articles of Faith; but it has outlived all others, whether in Hebrew or in the vernacular. The rhymed English translation by Jacob Waley (1818-1873) was published posthumously by his daughter, Julia Matilda Cohen, in The children’s Psalm-book, a selection of Psalms with explanatory comments, together with a prayer-book for home use in Jewish families (1907), pp. 300-303. The philosophical-creed-as-piyyut, Yigdal, in Hebrew with an English translation. This is Rev. Newton Mann’s rhymed English translation of Daniel ben Yehudah Dayyan’s “Yigdal” as first published in Rabbi Max Landsberg’s Ritual for Jewish Worship (1884), pp. 13-14. Categories: Tags: 15th century C.E., 53rd century A.M., doctrinal, פיוטים piyyuṭim, rhyming translation, statements of belief, יגדל yigdal, זמירות zemirot Contributor(s): The philosophical-creed-as-piyyut, Yigdal, in Hebrew with a rhyming English translation by Alice Lucas first published in 1894. This is the philosophical-creed-as-piyyut, Yigdal, by Daniel ben Judah Dayyan. Yigdal means “Magnify [O Living God]” and is based on the 13 Articles of Faith formulated by Maimonides (1135-1204). Daniel ben Judah spent eight years improving his piyyut, completing Yigdal in 1404. This was not the only metrical presentment of the 13 Articles of Faith; but it has outlived all others, whether in Hebrew or in the vernacular. The English translation here by Israel Zangwill was transcribed from Arthur Davis & Herbert Adler’s מַחֲזוֹר עֲבֹדַת אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד: עֲבֹדַת חַג הַכִּפּוּרִים Maḥzor Avodat Ohel Moed: Avodat Yom haKippurim Part II: Morning Service (1904), p. 2. This is Rev. William Channing Gannett’s rhymed English translation of Daniel ben Yehudah Dayyan’s “Yigdal” made at the request of Rabbi Max Landsberg and published in Gannett’s Unity hymns and chorals (1911), pp. 2-3.

Categories: Tags: 15th century C.E., 53rd century A.M., doctrinal, interpretive translation, פיוטים piyyuṭim, rhyming translation, statements of belief, יגדל yigdal, זמירות zemirot Contributor(s): A 15th century Ḥanukkah vs. Shabbat rap battle. Technically it’s not a rap battle–just a piyyut introducing “Mi Khamokha” in the blessing after the Shema on the Shabbat morning of Ḥanukkah . Categories: Tags: 15th century C.E., 53rd century A.M., blessings following the shema, Byzantium, מי כמוך Mi Khamokha, פיוטים piyyuṭim, rap battles Contributor(s): A personal petition in rhymed prose from the introduction to Vat. Ross. 499, an Italian-rite maḥzor from the year 1446 with a lot of very cool liturgical content in it. Frankly, the title drew me in. The Megillat Saragossa (also known as the Megillat Syracusa) in Hebrew and English, named after the tale of rescue and reversal of fortune in the cultural memory of some Sepharadi communities, to be read on the 17th of Shəvat. Categories: Tags: 15th century C.E., 17 Shəvat, 52nd century A.M., local communal deliverance commemorations, medieval megillot, romanticism, second Purims Contributor(s): The Italian rite, unique among Jewish rites, has preserved up until very recently the custom recorded in the Talmud, Masekhet Tagnanith, for communally declared fast days. In this rite, sometimes referred to as the Twenty-Four Blessings, six more blessings are added to the liturgy — the Zikhronot and Shofrot portions more commonly recited on Rosh haShanah, and four different psalms, all interspaced with a poetic litany on behalf of the ancestors’ merit and shofar blasts. I had previously transcribed the version of this liturgy as found in the Goldschmidt Mahzor Roma. But this version below is different, including a more complex variation in the ancestors’ merit passages, as well as relevant Biblical passages for each one. It is found in Vat. Ross. 499, a 1446 manuscript of the Italian rite with a lot of very interesting liturgical content in it.
