Hineni: Prayerbook Hebrew for Adults

In 136 clear, concise pages, Hineni: Prayerbook Hebrew for Adults prepares adult learners for full participation in Shabbat morning services. Adults acquire synagogue skills--and gain confidence! --as they learn how to:

• Recite the Shabbat morning prayers as well as blessings for home rituals. (Blessings over candles, wine, and hallah at Shabbat dinner, ritual food items at Passover seder)
• Actively participate in the prayer service. (When we stand and when we sit during the service, why we rise up on our toes three times during the K'dushah)
• Understand the meaning of the prayers. (How is the Sh'ma like a pledge of allegiance? Why do mourners recite the Kaddish, even though it does not mention death?)
• Recognize 200 important prayer words and 20 key roots.
