Description

Part seven of the series on tefillah discusses the format, structure and basic halachot of Shemoneh Esrei, the amidah, which is the "tefillah" in Jewish lore. Why? What are the most important parts? Why are there so many requests? Why do we bow at various junctures? And how do we struggle with Kavanah? This is the first part of a two part analysis of the Amidah. Sponsored by Becky and Avi Katz l'iluy nishmat Yonah ben Harav Aryeh Leib a"h.
