Publisher Description: The design of this volume follows that of the Koren Siddur, using the specially developed font, and the unique 'poetry-line' format, which facilitates correct punctuation and better comprehension. The various mistakes and inexactitudes which have slipped into the texts over time have been corrected based on the outstanding thirty-year-long research by Daniel Goldschmidt. Certian hymns which were omitted in the Middle Ages have been reprinted in full. Sections not usually included in present day services are printed on a grey background, so as to make following public prayers easier to follow. The Torah reading for thte second days of the Festivals celebrated outside Israel are alos printed on a grey background. A short commentary on the hymns by Daniel Goldschmidt appears on the bottom of each page. All Machzorim were edited by Yona Frankel. |
