Announcing L’chu N’ran’nah! An Egalitarian Traditional bencher with an alternative edge
Edited by Barry Dov Walfish and Mark Frydenberg, the editors of Siddur Chaveirim Kol Yisraeil (Ktav 2000), Aviva Richman, and Ben Dreyfus
L’chu N’ran’nah is an egalitarian traditional bencher with an alternative edge: It is true to traditional Hebrew texts but ready to adjust language when necessary to address the diversity of contemporary Jewish life in matters of gender and belief. The book is fully egalitarian, with a gender-neutral translation and equal ritual status for men and women. It is rich in explanations, insightful commentary, and inclusive liturgical alternatives for celebration, thanks, and prayer.
