Excerpt from Dr. David Einhorn's ???olat Tamid: Book of Prayers for Jewish Congregations This translation pretends to be nothing more than what the word implies. Inspection will show the departures from the original to have been few The changes introduced were suggested by the desire to adapt the book more readily to its'practical uses. For this reason, in Part II, the full text of the hymns has been added. The hymns are partly original by the translator, partly they are adaptations and trans. Lations from the German, made by him; a few have been taken from the translator's scrap-book, and are from the pen of anonymous 'contributors to period ical literature. It will also be noticed that many of the Hebrew poems which in the German edition are rendered in rhymed prose, are here presented in a metrical form. For this, the translator, too, is responsible. He trusts that his attempts in this direction will not be found too much below the high plane of their surroundings. It may have been a hazardous venture on his part, to add a few prayers not found in the original. This was done in order to meet the demand expressed by some of the colleagues of varying occasionally the text of the prayers read. These additional prayers will be found to be recasts, largely, of thoughts expressed by Einhorn, and to follow his own method of utiliz ing Biblical passages. The week-day Service, as here given, is also an enlargement of the formula contained in the German edition. In some of thecongregations using Einhorn's ritual, the vveek-day (sunday) Service has become a permanent institu tion; and it was with a view of meeting this circum stance that the translator made hold to introduce what changes he has. The order of Taking out the Scroll differs also from that in the German. The reasons which prompted this rev1s1on are plain. To make the choral features a more prominent part seemed desirable. The responses assigned to the choir, have been, as far as possible, rendered in the rhythm of the German original so that the music written for the German text can be used also for the English.
