My People's Prayer Book is a momentous eight-volume series that opens up the traditional Jewish prayer book (the siddur) as a spiritual resource. Commentaries by respected teachers from all perspectives of the Jewish world provide the spiritual images that make up the siddur. The seventh volume in the series explores the typical Ashkenazi-style table liturgy for Shabbat, along with a broad range of z'mirot (table songs) that reflect the rich diversity of Jewish practice. It illuminates the meanings behind the traditional blessings for ushering in Shabbat, as well as the rituals and ceremony for concluding the holy day. My People's Prayer Book: Volume 7-Shabbat at Home features the traditional Hebrew text with a new translation that lets people know exactly what the prayers say. Introductions explain what to look for in the prayers, and how to use the commentaries to find meaning in the prayer book. Commentaries from eminent scholars and teachers from all movements of Judaism examine Shabbat at home from the viewpoints of ancient Rabbis and modern theologians, as well as a myriad of other perspectives.
