Rav Schwab on Prayer

by Shimon Schwab, Moshe Schwab

Rabbi Shimon Schwab was officially "retired," but his mind and conscience never rested. Always a great thinker and teacher, he turned his attention to the Siddur, and drew his congregants along with him. A lifetime of learning, thought, piety, and perspective were poured into thesestimulating and inspiring lectures, which are now presented in this book.

It took me several years to read this book, but that's because the concepts are deep and I found it better to read just a little bit at a time. A nice bonus is that there is a short commentary about the Passover Haggadah at the end - which I read during Passover - and the book would be worth reading just for that. Dayeinu.

This is not a book that one finishes, but rereads over and over again to reinforce what one learns. As I do not have the same minhagim as the author, I read the chapters in a different order, but nevertheless, this book has helped me with my davening.
