"Around
the Family Table" is a practical and inspiring prayer book for the Jewish
household. Many of the uplifting and ancient Jewish traditions are rooted in the
home and celebrated with the family. This prayer book is intended to serve as a
guide for meaningful expressions of the Jewish experience at home. Inspiring
stories and personal commentary by Rabbi Shlomo Riskin supplement the text
throughout.
Blessings and songs celebrating the entire year of Jewish festivals and
Sabbaths, in Hebrew, with English instructions and translations, make this work
of fundamental value to every Jewish home. Birth celebrations for boys as well
as for girls, the marriage ceremony, prayers for inaugurating a new house, and
other momentous life cycle occasions are marked with traditional praise and holy
words.
