The Patriarch Abraham - vignette from illuminated manuscript


The Siddur is the traditional Jewish prayer book.  "Transliterated" means that the Hebrew sounds are spelled out using the English alphabet.  This enables anyone to follow along with the liturgy and to sing along with the congregation.

The Transliterated Siddur uses color to indicate which words are usually sung by the Cantor, which by the congregation, and which are recited silently.  

Music has been important to Judaism since the times of the Temple.  In addition to presenting the words of each prayer, some of the pages will, on request, play the tunes that are popular with most congregations.

The Transliterated Siddur is intended to help Jews who are learning to recite the traditional prayers.  Permission is granted to individuals to print or download pages for private study and for insertion into the corresponding pages of their Hebrew-English Siddur.  

Synagogue services on Friday nights and Saturday mornings are Sabbath services.  The Transliterated Siddur includes these worship services in their entirety.  It also includes the daily blessings said over mitzvot, and on arising.  

It does not yet include all the synagogue services for less frequent occasions.  The weekday services are being added and are partly on-line.  Zemirot (Sabbath table songs) are also underway. To be notified by e-mail whenever our contents are expanded, join our announcment list.
