tag: Reform Jewry Sorted Chronologically (old to new). Sort most recent first? “Auf, auf, den Herrn zu loben” is a hymn by the Lutheran composer of hymns, Johann Franck (1618-1677). The first two stanzas were translated by Rabbi James Koppel Gutheim and published as “Ein gottergehener sinn (Pious Resignation.)” in his Hymns, for Divine Service in the Temple Emanu-El (1871) as hymn №4, pp. 8-9. The use of these two stanzas in a Jewish context can be found in Gebet- und Gesangbuch für die sabbathe und Feste des Jahres: eingefuehrt in der israelitischen Gemeinde zu Coblenz (1850), hymn №18, p. 117. The source of the text from a Christian hymnal is that of Schatzkästlein von hundert und fünfzig geistreichen Liedern älterer Zeit (Samuel Christian Gottfried Küster, 1821) where it is hymn №6, p. 10. The original printing of the hymn is found in the first volume of Franck’s collected hymns Teutsche Gedichte, enthaltend geistliches Zion samt Vaterunserharfe nebst irdischem Helicon oder Lob-, Lieb-, Leidgedichte, etc (Guben, 1674), pp. 212-214. . . .

The first, fourth, and sixth stanzas were translated by Rabbi James Koppel Gutheim and published as “Der Sabbath (The Sabbath)” in his Hymns, for Divine Service in the Temple Emanu-El (1871) as hymn №1, pp. 2-3. The hymn also appears as the preface to Gotthold Salomon’s sermon “Der Segen des Sabbathtages” in Der berg des Herrn: Kanzel-vorträge über den Decalog (1846), p. 32 lending me to think that the hymn was at the very least appreciated by him, and possibly also written by him. –Aharon Varady . . .

This prayer-leaflet was primarily intended for a group of Hebrew Union College students who met every sabbath afternoon for extra-curricular (noncredit) Torah study with Rabbi Dr. Jakob Petuchowki in the mid-1960s. Their service was conducted entirely in Hebrew and in the traditional nusaḥ with some minor but interesting Liberal innovations. Petuchowki writes, “We have omitted only the various repetitions as well as the prayer for the restoration of the sacrificial service. (But we have retained the place of Zion as the symbol of the messianic hope.) In the ‘Alenu prayer, we have preferred a positive formulation of the “Election of Israel” to the traditional negative one.” . . .
