Product Information

The Reconstructionist movement‘s prayerbooks for weekdays, Shabbat and holidays form a matched set under one title, Kol Haneshamah (“every creature” or “all that breathes,” from the last verse of Psalms). These siddurim showcase the Reconstructionist movement’s innovative approach to liturgy–traditionalist in form, but radical in ideology. Far more is rewritten than in the Conservative siddur, though a full Hebrew text is given for every standard prayer. These siddurim are rather bulky.
