The High Holy Days: A Commentary on the Prayerbook of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur

Rabbi Kievals magnum opus on the High Holy Days is published here in its entirety for the first time (Part 2 was never published until now). It is the first full-length English commentary to the Mahzor of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Intended for both laypeople and scholars, it explains all of the important prayers of the High Holy Days from a liturgical, historical and philosophical point of view. The footnotes refer the reader to a wide range of scholarly literature.
