Reflections and Readings for the High Holy Day Season Collected by:
Rabbi Tina Grimberg and
Rabbi Richard Hirsh

Darchei Noam’s booklet of “Supplementary Readings for the High Holy Days” will be available as usual for all attending services.

To reduce the amount of paper used for the booklet this year, we are offering links to selected articles, readings and poems to enhance your understanding and appreciation of the various themes and concepts we encounter at this important time of year. 

In order not to disturb others, and in order to preserve the kavanah of the High Holy Day prayers, please do not bring any portable electronic communication devices to services.  If you find any selections on our website that can enhance your High Holy Day experience, we ask that you print these out at home and bring the print-outs with you to synagogue for private reading and reflection during t’filot.
