Machzor Workshop
May 10, 3-5pm

Machzor Workshop with Student Rabbi Joe Hample. We will (1) discuss Yom Kippur liturgy, and (2) share recommended updates for the Days of Awe Supplement. Presently we are working on index systems, literal translations, interpretative / LGBT translations, determining what's transliterated but not translated in the supplement, proofreading Hebrew and transliteration for correctness for the Supplement. Also prayers in the supplement being focused on are V'ahavta, U-n'tanneh Tokef, Avinu Malkenu, Ha-yom Harat Olam, Areshet S'fateinu and
Aleinuon. Student Rabbi Joe Hample and the BCC scholars welcome others to join in on the update and transformation of the Days of Awe Supplement. If you have questions, please contact Student Rabbi Joe at 323 931 7023 extension 251.
