Siddur Kol Koreh


A Shabbat siddur which includes a line-by-line transliteration of every prayer! Interlaced with commentaries, readings, songs, and friendly, here's-what-you-do-now directions, Siddur Kol Koreh is a joyful way to welcome both non-Hebrew-readers into the practice of Jewish prayer as well as those who have been walking this path for some time. Its loose-leaf format encourages resource-sharing, updating and "customizing" (e.g. it is compatible with Hashir V'ha-shevach, below). Siddur Kol Koreh is interactive, seeking feedback and suggestions to be incorporated into future editions and resource companions. Now with a clear plastic cover!


Siddur Kol Koreh Hebrew/English edition.

This Siddur is for those who already read Hebrew and want to focus on the meanings of the words. The English translations are printed directly alongside the Hebrew. The pagination is exactly the same as the transliterated edition. This allows both editions to be used simultaneously in the same setting. The translation is not always purely literal. In some cases, the sequence of phrases is adjusted to accommodate a more precise lining up of two texts.


Siddur Kol Koreh: Resource Companion

Introducing the second phase of ALEPH's siddur project, this resource companion comes in a beautiful, large loose leaf binder. It currently includes readings, updated pages for Kol Koreh, an Amidah for Shabbat afternoon, as well as complete Kol Nidre and weekday services.


Siddur Kol Koreh: Weekday Edition

This is the first complete weekday siddur in Jewish Renewal. It comes with a line-by-line transliteration and concludes with a version of the bedtime sh'ma as well as a completely renewed tachanun section.

Credo of a Modern Kabbalist

Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi with Rabbi Daniel Siegel

Using core concepts and the map provided by Kabbalah, Reb Zalman re-examines Jewish practice in light of contemporary insights about the nature of our world. In a conversational voice replete with personal anecdotes and beautiful Chassidic stories, he weaves a Jewish spirituality in harmony with tradition and open to the present.
This book is "print on demand," which means that it does not go out of print and there is no "remaindered" stock. This environmentally responsible way of printing carries a slightly higher cost per copy sold.

Integral Halachah: Transcending and Including

Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi with Rabbi Daniel Siegel

Reb Zalman turns his attention to the implications of his reworking of Jewish mysticism. He outlines the way this new mystical vision can be applied to the process we call Halachah, the expression of vision in the details of living.
