A study of Jewish festivals and liturgy, The Cycle of the Jewish Year examines the structure of the Jewish calendar through its major holy days and through selected passages from prayer and religious tradition. Written as a work of Jewish studies and religious reference, the book connects the cycle of the year with the meaning of the festivals, their place in Jewish life, and the liturgical texts associated with them. It is aimed at readers interested in Judaism, the Jewish year, religious education, and books that approach holidays and prayer as part of a broader spiritual and cultural framework that continues to shape communal life.
