A great book that I highly reccomend. 459221@blogcritics.org Wed, 18 Oct 2006 16:06:35 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2006/10/18/072300.php#comment-459094 Very nice job... I have a suggestion and a question. Not all of us would know that the term "layning" means chanting the Torah at the altar. You might want to also explain a bit what certain prayers are, like the blessings recited in the morning that include thanking G-d for "not making me a woman" or "according to His will." Finally, I have a question. Did the author of the book deal with Sephardi or MizraHi customs at all? 459094@blogcritics.org Wed, 18 Oct 2006 10:39:19 EDT
