tag: אהבה רבה ahavah rabbah Sorted Chronologically (old to new). Sort most recent first? This Chinese translation of an Ashkenazi nusaḥ of the Birkat Ahavah (“Ahavah Rabah”) prayer before the Shema in Shaḥarit is found on pages 12 of the liner notes for the Chinese edition of Richard Collis’s album We Sing We Stay Together: Shabbat Morning Service Prayers (Wǒmen gēchàng, wǒmen xiāngjù — Ānxírì chén dǎo qídǎo). Categories: Tags: acrostic, אהבה רבה ahavah rabbah, Alphabetic Acrostic, blessings prior to the shema, Chinese translation, פיוטים piyyuṭim Contributor(s): This ahavah piyyut, likely by the paytan Yitsḥaq ben Reuven Albargeloni (the acrostic signature is ambiguous), is a longing love song between Israel, the “amazing one,” and God, the “Mighty One.” As an ahavah, it is recited prior to the final line of the guf and the ḥatima of the Ahavah Rabba blessing. An original rhyming translation of the ahavah piyyut for Shabbat ‘Éqev, a poem by Yehuda haLevi that discusses the halakhot of making and wearing tefillin in honor of the fact that tefillin are mentioned in the parashah. Categories: Tags: 12th century C.E., 49th century A.M., Acrostic signature, אהבה רבה ahavah rabbah, פיוטים piyyuṭim, rhyming translation, תפלין tefillin, יוצרות yotsrot Contributor(s): An ahava piyyut for Shabbat Vayera, recited in the old Nusaḥ Polin (Eastern Ashkenazi) rite, written (according to Davidson) by R. Shmuel bar Avraham haLevi. Shmuel bar Avraham haLevi (1165-1216, according to Graetz) was a poet and scholar of the ibn Ḥasdai family of Barcelona, and the father of the noted Maimonidean translator Avraham bar Shmuel ibn Ḥasdai. This piyyuṭ takes God’s fateful instruction to Abraham — “Take, please, your son, your only one, whom you love,” and, in a shocking bit of poetic ḥutzpah, reframes it a request that God takes back Israel! A paraliturgical reflection of the second blessing prior to the Shema, the Birkat Ahavah, for a shame resilience practice. The blessing recited prior to the Shema, in the wording of Michal Talya. Categories: Tags: 21st century C.E., 58th century A.M., אהבה רבה ahavah rabbah, blessings prior to the shema, love, paraliturgical birkat ahavah Contributor(s): An ahavah for Pesaḥ Sheni. An acrostic spelling out “Yitsḥaq son of Avraham, the priest, ḥazaq,” with a refrain derived from Mishnah Pesaḥim 9:1. Categories: Tags: 21st century C.E., 58th century A.M., acrostic, Acrostic signature, אהבה רבה ahavah rabbah, פיוטים piyyuṭim, יוצרות yotsrot Contributor(s): | ||
