ng> Israeli women of faith have reached out to God from the depths of their experiences.
In both English and Hebrew side-by-side, Az Nashir - We Will Sing Again: Women's Prayers for Our Time of Need is an anthology of the artistic expression of Torah scholars, teachers, spiritual leaders, activists, poets, writers, and masters of creativity, who found the language and visual medium to express their heartfelt responses to life in Israel at this tenuous and challenging time. This
collection of prayers: tefillot, techinot, and piyutim joins a long tradition of Jewish women dialoguing with the Divine about their immediate experiences, in their mother tongues, as they seek hope and redemption for themselves and the people of Israel.
Including prayers:
On the challenges of Shabbat during wartime
On the experiences of families of soldiers during the war
On losing a child or spouse in battle
For the hostages to return home
On rebuilding and protecting the borders of Israel
On finding the words to pray when God seems distant or hidden
For personal needs, women's mitzvot, and motherhood in a time of national crisis
For peace, redemption, and an end to terror and war
