Bobbing, Weaving & Davening…..

On 13th December, Sinai Synagogue- the Reform synagogue in Leeds- will be holding a Library minyan. It will be led by Rabbi Ian Morris who describes it thus:

This Library Minyan will be largely traditional in form, however it will contain an “explanatory” element which explores the traditional “choreography” of Jewish prayer.Where do the various bows, shuffles, standings and other twitches fit into the service? And why are they there? Ever wondered why at one point in the service some people go up on their toes, while others bow down? So have I. So please consider coming to this Library Minyan and explaining it to me…..
