The Seyder Tkhines, translated from its original Yiddish by noted tkhines scholar, Devra Kay, and centerpiece of this groundbreaking work, was a standard Yiddish prayer book for women. It first appeared in Amsterdam in 1648, and continued to be published for the next three generations, usually inside the Hebrew synagogue prayer book. A product of an age when mysticism pervaded mainstream Judaism, the Seyder Tkhines provided women with newly composed, alternative daily prayers that were more specific to their needs. Included in this volume is a unique Yiddish manuscript dating from the 17th century a collection of prayers written specifically for a rich, pregnant woman, which Kay discovered among the rare books of the Bodleian Library in Oxford, England.Now, for the first time, these prayers have been skillfully translated and brought to public view. In addition to her translations, Kay presents her own extensive commentary, providing a deeper understanding of the historic, religious, and cultural background of this period in Jewish history. This unparalleled book will have special appeal to those interested in the social, literary, and religious history of women, as well as the history of the Yiddish language and literature. The interest in these forgotten prayers and their significance to the lives of women has now been revived, and these tkhines are ready to be rediscovered by a modern readership.

I had high hopes for this book, but it came with a dent on the cover. The prayers are great, but I was disappointed with the packaging. I still use it, but I wish it had arrived in better shape.

Wonderful Resource for Jewish Women
This prayer book is exactly what I needed. It's so empowering to have a prayer book focused on the needs of Jewish women. The language is accessible, and the layout is simple to follow. Highly recommend to anyone looking for spiritual connection!

Thoughtful Content, but a Bit Small
The Forgotten Book of Common Prayer is really well put together and has some great prayers. However, I found the book to be a little smaller than expected. It’s not super easy to read if you have eye strain like I do!

Great Gift for My Daughter
I gifted this book to my daughter for her Bat Mitzvah, and she really appreciates having a personalized prayer book. The prayers are thoughtfully chosen, and she finds it easy to use. A lovely addition to her spiritual journey!

A Beautiful Addition to My Prayer Routine
I bought the Seyder Tkhinés for my wife, and she absolutely loves it! The prayers are beautifully laid out, and having a dedicated book for Jewish women is such a thoughtful touch. It's become a cherished part of her daily practice.
