American Reform Movement —⟶ tag: American Reform Movement Sorted Chronologically (old to new). Sort most recent first? Rabbi David Einhorn’s (1809-1878) prayer book `Olat Tamid (lit. the perpetual sacrifice)…first penned in Germany, served as the model for the Union Prayer Book,….the prayer book of the American Reform movement for almost eight decades. It reflected what is now called “classical Reform,” eliminating prayers for the restoration of Zion, mentions of the messiah, and bodily resurrection of the dead, while diminishing mentions of Jewish chosenness and the like.

Leonard Levy (1865-1917). It went through six editions during his lifetime, with a seventh posthumous reprint of the sixth edition published in 1922. There were major revisions to the second edition, and more minor adjustments subsequently. Here are the first three editions and the seventh edition, all courtesy of Dr. Ruth Langer.

Categories: Tags: Contributor(s): A prayerbook compiled for Rodeph Shalom, a Reform movement congregation in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Categories: Tags: Contributor(s): The Children’s Service for Use in Religious Schools (1902) is Rabbi J. Leonard Levy’s prayerbook compiled for the religious school at Congregation Rodeph Shalom, a Reform movement synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The siddur is comprised of four children’s services and twenty supplemental services for special days on the calendar. A hymnal comprises a third section. This is the second revised edition of the prayerbook, printed in 1904, containing additional services and hymns. This Reform movement catechism by Rabbi J. Leonard Levy was first published as “Our Creed” in The Children’s Service for Use in Religious Schools (1902). In the second edition from 1904, it is found on page 207. There, Rabbi Levy’s verse is described as a “translation,” which from the credit of the melody to “Leoni” (Meyer Lyon, 1751-1797) might lead one to consider it a revised Reform movement adaptation of some setting of Thomas Oliver’s “God of Abraham” (ca. 1771, itself a Christian adaptation of Daniel ben Yehudah Dayyan’s “Yigdal”). A cross-comparison however reveals this is not the case. Over at the Hymnology Archive, Chris Fenner uncovered a rhymed English derivation of Yigdal by Newton Mann (1836-1926) made at the request of Rabbi Max Landsberg (1845-1927). A “provisional edition” of the Reform movement’s Union Prayer Book for six morning services (containing additional material) for Reform Synagogues with daily morning services.
