Kol Nidre

rdfs:comment

Kol Nidre was a flag on the Midnight Ocean. It was founded on August 22, 2005. Kol Nidre or Kol Nidrei or Kal Nidre (Aramaic: כָּל נִדְרֵי) is an Aramaic declaration recited in the synagogue before the beginning of the evening service on erev Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. Though not a prayer, this dry legal formula and its ceremonial accompaniment have been charged with emotional undertones since the medieval period, creating a dramatic introduction to Yom Kippur on what is often dubbed "Kol Nidrei night". It is written in Aramaic, not Hebrew. Its name is taken from the opening words, meaning "all vows". The prayer Kol Nidre, which translates as "all vows", oaths or promises, is repeated three times during the evening prayers which begin Yom Kippur. Because of the tight association of this prayer with the services on the evening (Erev) of Yom Kippur, the services are sometimes called Kol Nidre services. To come: more about the history and reasons for this prayer.

Kol Nidre or Kol Nidrei or Kal Nidre (Aramaic: כָּל נִדְרֵי) is an Aramaic declaration recited in the synagogue before the beginning of the evening service on erev Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. Though not a prayer, this dry legal formula and its ceremonial accompaniment have been charged with emotional undertones since the medieval period, creating a dramatic introduction to Yom Kippur on what is often dubbed "Kol Nidrei night". It is written in Aramaic, not Hebrew. Its name is taken from the opening words, meaning "all vows". Kol Nidrei has had an eventful history, both in itself and in its influence on the legal status of the Jews. Introduced into the liturgy despite the opposition of some rabbinic authorities, attacked in the course of time by some rabbis, and in the nineteenth century expunged from the prayer-book by many communities of western Europe, Kol Nidrei has often been employed out of context by some to claim that Jews cannot be trusted. The term Kol Nidrei refers not only to the actual declaration, but is also popularly used as a name for the entire Yom Kippur evening service. The prayer Kol Nidre, which translates as "all vows", oaths or promises, is repeated three times during the evening prayers which begin Yom Kippur. Because of the tight association of this prayer with the services on the evening (Erev) of Yom Kippur, the services are sometimes called Kol Nidre services. One of the reasons why the Yom Kippur Evening prayer is often called Kol Nidre Service is that it is so very different from the typical night services. It is the only time when men wear Talitoth (Taleisim) and when a lengthy Selichoth service is added, followed by Avinu Malkenu. Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik (z'l) even went as far to say that it would be a misnomer to call this service Maariv, and that Kol Nidrei Service (aka Kolnidre Gebet) is the proper name for it. To come: more about the history and reasons for this prayer. Kol Nidre was a flag on the Midnight Ocean. It was founded on August 22, 2005.
