We treasure our prayer rituals and the sacred word, but we don’t always understand what we say. In t’filah Hebrew we will attempt to understand the general meaning and intention of the prayer through the understanding of the literal Hebrew words. We will learn to identify reoccurring verbs, propositions and other grammatical rules that will help us navigate the Hebrew with better ease. Ability to read Hebrew is a prerequisite.
