Dear Friends,

We’re so looking forward to celebrating and observing the High Holidays together. There’s nothing like hearing the music to prepare you and get you in the right frame of mind. I’ll be leading a workshop next Wednesday 9/6 at 7:00 in the library to review old and new congregational melodies. Whether it’s your first time or your 50th, I’ll be glad to have you join us in song. Mac, new in our office, has been kind enough to prepare a playlist of recordings that you can listen to on the TJC SoundCloud ahead of time and throughout the holidays. You’ll be able to see the words in both English transliteration, and in Hebrew. I’ll love hearing which melodies you love for the High Holidays as well. Please join me!

L’Shanah Tovah!

You Sustain the living through love

מְכַלְכֵּל חַיִּים בְּחֶֽסֶד 
מְחַיֵּה מֵתִים בְּרַחֲמִים רַבִּים 
סוֹמֵךְ נוֹפְ֒לִים וְרוֹפֵא חוֹלִים 
וּמַתִּיר אֲסוּרִים 
וּמְקַיֵּם אֱמוּנָתוֹ לִישֵׁנֵי עָפָר
מִי כָמֽוֹךָ בַּֽעַל גְּבוּרוֹת 
וּמִי דּֽוֹמֶה לָּךְ 
מֶֽלֶךְ מֵמִית וּמְחַיֶּה 
וּמַצְמִֽיחַ יְשׁוּעָה

Sound the Shofar on our feast day, On the new moon, when it is hidden. For it is Israel’s law, a decree of the God of Jacob

Tik’u va’chodesh Shofar
Bakeseh l’yom chageinu
Ki Chokl l’yisrael hu 
Mishpat l’elohei Ya’akov 

תִּקְעוּ בַחֹֽדֶשׁ שׁוֹפָר 
בַּכֶּֽסֶה לְיוֹם חַגֵּֽנוּ
כִּי חֹק לְיִשְׂרָאֵל הוּא 
מִשְׁפָּט לֵאלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב
