  • Contemporary, gender-inclusive English
  • Theological and stylistic diversity
  • Extensive commentaries, source notes and usage guides

  • Choice of transliterated and non-transliterated editions
  • Innovative design in two-page spreads (additional Shabbat services
    in linear style also included)
  • Two-color printing enhances usability
