Machzor for the Family: An Abridged Messianic Machzor for Yom Teruah (Rosh HaShanah) and Yom Kippur: Honoring Yeshua the Messiah in the poems, prayers and songs of the machzor
The same author who brought you the Messiah's Alphabet and Messiah's Calendar workbook series now offers a Messianic machzor! This machzor (a book containing the order of the worship service and its prayers, hymns, and poems) honors Yeshua as Messiah (Jesus as Christ) and is designed for the beginner who has never observed the biblical holy days of Yom Teruah ("Day of Trumpets," aka Rosh HaShanah, "Head of the Year") or Yom Kippur ("Day of Atonement")--but would like to learn how. This beginner-friendly, English-friendly machzor is perfect for the Jewish person who wasn't raised in an observant home or synagogue, or for the Christian who wants to begin to honor God by observing His holy days, but has no earthly idea how to go about it. This book is equally suitable for Jewish families, Messianic home groups, and Christian small groups, as no prior knowledge of Hebrew (or any of the prayers or songs) is needed. A brief "beginner's introduction" to each biblical holy day is provided in a dedicated chapter preceding each "order of service," so that the reader can participate in worship while having a solid spiritual understanding. All narration is provided for the leader of the service, so no prior experience in leading services is required. Margins contain helpful historical background information on the ancient liturgy, as well as any Scripture references related to its content. All liturgy is presented in both Hebrew and English, along with complete transliterations (pronunciations that are written using the letters of the English alphabet). Don't know how the melodies are supposed to go? Not a problem! Any of the liturgies that are traditionally sung are also shown with musical notation. Additional contemporary Messianic (Yeshua-honoring) liturgy is provided throughout, making each worship service complete in the fullness of both TaNaCH and B'rit Chadashah (Old and New Testaments). This machzor makes clear the prophetic connections between the appointed times of the Lord and their fulfillment through the life and ministry of Yeshua, the Messiah. (Note: Unlike most traditional machzorim having right-to-left page order, this machzor has been designed to read from left to right in the usual manner of English books, to ease the approach for the novice.)
