God assigns
structure and order
to the night. Our
fear of darkness is
allayed by
knowing that God
ordains it; night
must be as safe as
the day. Thus we
do not connect
darkness to chaos,
but rather
understand it as
part of Gods plan.
We praise You, Eternal our God, Ruler of the universe, who makes light and creates darkness, who ordains peace and fashions all
things. With compassion You give light to the earth and all who dwell there; with goodness You renew the work of creation
continually, day by day. How manifold are Your works, Adonai; in wisdom You have made them all. The earth in all its fullness
is Yours. Beyond praise is the work of Your hands; beyond expression the wonder of Your light.
We praise You, Adonai, the Maker of light.

You have loved Israel Your people with an eternal love. You have taught us Torah and Commandments, laws and
judgments. Therefore, O God, when we lie down and rise up, we will discuss Your laws and rejoice in the words of
Your Torah and Commandments forever and ever. For they are our life and length of our days; we will meditate on
them day and night. Do not remove Your love from us ever! Blessed are You, God, Lover of the people Israel.




The premier
declaration of faith
in Judaism, Shma
proclaims Gods
unity and eternality.
We cover our eyes to

concentration.

Hear, O Israel: the Eternal One is our God, the Eternal God alone! (Deuteronomy 6:4)
Blessed is Gods glorious majesty forever and ever!
All are seated


We declare our
loyalty and love for
God with this Torah
text, a concrete
example of Gods
love for us as
mentioned in Ahavat
Olam. We love God
with everything
heart, soul, body,
good and bad
inclinations, and
with more strength
than we think we
possess. We pray
that there not be a
moment in our lives
that we do not show
God this love. We
also hearken to our
experience as slaves
in Egypt and
remember that we
could find freedom.

You shall love your Eternal God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.
And all these words which I command you on this day shall be upon your heart.
And you shall teach them diligently to your children.
And you shall speak of them when you sit in your house,
when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
And you shall bind them for a sign upon your hand. And they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and upon your gates.
So that you will remember and do all My commandments and be holy to your God.
I am your Eternal God who led you out of Egypt to be your God. I am your Eternal God
(Deuteronomy 6:5-9, Numbers 15:40-41).

Mi Chamocha Redemption: Just as we were redeemed
from slavery, may redemption come for those enslaved today.

After freedom
from slavery, our
people sang these
words at the Sea of
Reeds (Red Sea) to
celebrate their
freedom (Exodus
15). Today, we
sing them to
conjure images of
our own future
Redemption and
freedom. We
imagine a day
when the world
will be perfected.
Who is like You, Adonai, among the gods? Who is like You, Who is majestic in
holiness, awesome in splendor, Who does wonders? (Exodus 15:11)

Cause us to rest peacefully, O Adonai our God, and let us rise invigorated, our Ruler; spread upon us a Sukkah
of peace. Let us be partners with good counsel before You, and save us for the sake of Your name. Protect us
and remove the threat of enemies, pestilence and the sword, hunger and sorrow from us, and keep adversaries
away from in front and behind us. Conceal us in the shadow of Your wings, for You are a God Which protects
and saves us. You are a gracious and compassionate God. Guard our going and our coming, for life and for
peace, now and forever. Blessed are You, Adonai, Who guards the people Israel forever.

Serving to break
up sections of the
service, Chatzi
Kaddish declares
Gods sovereignty
and authority over
the world.
Sometimes called
the Half (Chatzi)
Kaddish because it
is shorter than
other Kaddish
prayers, it is led
responsively by
the prayer leader,
hence its name.
Every Kaddish is a
doxology, or a
statement of praise
to God. We butter
up God before the
Amidah, the
quintessential
prayer.
May Gods great name be extolled and sanctified in the world that God created at will. May Gods authority
rule in our lives and days and in the life of all Israel, now and in coming times, and let us say: Amen.
May Gods great name be praised forever and ever.
May the name of the Holy One, Blessed be God, be blessed, praised, honored, elevated, carried high, glorified,
raised, and rejoiced, Who is above all the blessings and songs, praises and adorations that we utter in the world.
And let us say: Amen.

ancestors, through
whom we hope to
be seen as worthy
of good things as
well. 4

You grace humanity with knowledge and teach human beings understanding. You graced us with knowledge of
Your Torah and taught us to perform Your willful laws. Discern, O Adonai our God, between holy and
ordinary, between light and darkness, between Israel and the nations, between the seventh day and the six days
of creation. Our Father Our Ruler, commence upon us the days coming, to greet us with peace. May they be
free of all sin and clear of iniquity, and may we be cleaved in awe of You. Grace us with knowledge,
understanding and insight. Blessed are You Adonai, the Bestower of knowledge.

Be favorable, Adonai our God, toward Your people Israel, and receive their prayers with love. May the
worship of Israel Your people always be acceptable. God is near to all who call out. Turn to Your servants and
be gracious to us. Pour out Your spirit upon us.

Blessings 17 - 19
are found in every
Amidah. Avodah
shows how our
prayer replaced the
sacrificial system
in the Temple.
Priests at the end
of their sacrifice
would ask God to
accept their labors;
so too we pray for
acceptance of our
prayer

occurs on a new moon,
we offer a special prayer
that just as the moon
reappears out of the
darkness, may God
reappear in our lives

memory of all Your people Israel, for goodness, grace, kindness and compassion, for life and for peace on this New
Moon.
Remember us today, Adonai our God, for well-being. Amen.

We express our
gratefulness here
for our lives, daily
miracles, and all
the gifts bestowed
upon us. Just as a
subject bows to a
ruler before taking
leave of his or her
presence, so do we
bow in reverence,
once at the
beginning and
once at the end of
this blessing.
We acknowledge You, for You are our God and the God of our ancestors forever and ever. You are the Rock of
our life, the Protector of our salvation for each and every generation. We are thankful to You and sing Your
praises; for our lives, which are delivered into Your hands, for our souls, which are under Your auspices, and
for Your miraculous activities which are with us daily, and for your wonders and acts of goodness of every
time, evening morning and afternoon. The Good One, for your compassion never ceases. The Compassionate
One, for your kindness never fails. We have hoped for you eternally.

The Talmud
teaches that we
end our prayers
with a blessing for
peace. In the
evening, we recite
Shalom Rav, but in
the morning, and
among some
traditional Jews,
always, we recite
Sim Shalom. As
Reform Jews, we
interpret the prayer
to call for
universal peace.
Put forth an abundance of peace upon Israel, your people; You are Ruler and Master of all the peace. May it
be good in your eyes to bless Your people Israel (and all peoples) at all times and every hour with Your peace.
Blessed are You, Adonai, Who blesses Israel with peace.

As with the
introductory
sentence to the
Amidah, we now
return to the
singular in our
prayer. While we
make our prayers
communal, there is
a place in our
prayers for
individual
communications
with God. This
can be a moment
to meditate on
ones own life.
O God, keep my tongue from evil and my lips from deceit. Help me to be silent in the face of derision, humble
in the presence of all. Open my heart to Your Torah, that I may hasten to do Your Mitzvot. Save me with Your
power; in time of trouble be my answer, that those who love You may rejoice (based on Brachot 18a by Mar
ben Rabina).

S e we
originally ask that
G open our lips
and help us to
express our
prayers, we now
hope that wh
have said is
acceptable. Yet
another prayer f

at we
or
peace follows.
We acknowledge
Israels distinct
position in the
world. The Jewish
people accept the
one God, Creator
of all. We look to
share this quality
with all peoples of
the world who will
one day recognize
the redemptive
qualities of
believing in the
one God. It is our duty to praise the Master of all, to offer greatness to the fashioner of creation, Who has not made us
like the nations of the land and Who has not placed us like the families of the earth, Who has not placed our
portion with them, nor our lot with all their multitudes. We bow and prostrate and acknowledge the Ruler,
Ruler of Rulers, the Holy One, Blessed be God!

God stretches out the heavens and establishes the earth (Isaiah 51:13); You are our God; there is none else. In
truth You alone are our Sovereign God, as it is written in the Torah: Know this day and place it in your heart
that Adonai is God in the heavens above and on the earth below; there is none else (Deuteronomy 4:39). And it
has been said: Adonai be Ruler over all the earth; On that day Adonai shall be One and Gods name shall be
One (Zechariah 14:9).

This prayer assures
mourners that
death is not the
end. God remains
a source of
strength even
one struggles
through difficul
times. Kaddish
entails inter
between mourners
and community,
reminding them
not to retreat from
society due to
emotional distress.
as
t
action
Kaddish takes the
form of a
doxology, a
liturgical praise of
God.
Let the glory of God be extolled, let Gods great name be hallowed in the world whose creation God willed.
May God rule in our own day, in our own lives, and in the life of all Israel, and let us say: Amen. Let Gods
great name be praised for ever and ever. Beyond all praises, songs, and adorations that we can utter is the Holy
One, the Blessed One, whom yet we glorify, honor and exalt. And let us say: Amen. For us and for all Israel,
may the blessing of peace and the promise of life come true, and let us say: Amen. May the One who causes
peace to reign in the high heavens, let peace descend on us, on all Israel, and all the world and let us say: Amen.

May the Source of peace send peace to all who mourn,
and comfort to all who are bereaved. Amen.
