ALEPH Canada is dedicated to reclaiming the Jewish people’s sacred purpose of partnership with the Divine in the inseparable tasks of healing the world and healing our hearts.
Reb Zalman recites Psalms translated into a heartful pray-able English.
From Reb Zalman's introduction:
"There are enough translations of the psalms available. Why bother to translate them again and in this manner?
In my work with liturgy I found that when a version was overly faithful to the Hebrew it was good for studying. If it was sonorous and high sounding it was good for ceremonial and high ritual. But to render the psalms as prayers a more direct and more heart connected version would be better."
You will find many of these translations of Psalms in Siddur Kol Koreh and other Jewish Renewal publications and prayerbooks as well as in a dedicated book.
This was a 2 CD set and you should receive it as two zip files, each containing the contents of one of the original cds.
