Primal Prayers: Spiritual Responses to a Real World

"Rabbi Creditor is a poet of the soul. These prayer/poems will break your heart open, shining a light that runs from the core of the world through the depths of our pain to the heights of our joy. The book is a portal; it's author, a visionary." Rabbi Dr. Bradley Shavit Artson Dean, Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies, American Jewish University “Rabbi Menachem Creditor has given us all a gift. This book of prayers is here to accompany us though the joys and challenges of our daily lives. These are prayers we can relate to, prayers that heal our hearts and revive our souls.” Rabbi Naomi Levy Author of Talking to God “These powerful prayers offer the words we need to respond to the difficult, the beautiful, and the painful, to link our spiritual lives with our actions in the world.” Rabbi Jill Jacobs Executive Director, T'ruah: The Rabbinic Call for Human Rights "Once again, Rabbi Menachem Creditor grasps ancient Jewish ideas and translates them compassionately, soulfully, and brilliantly for the contemporary soul. This is a treasure for our Jewish liturgy, a gift of the old renewed in our time." Rabbi Michael Adam Latz Shir Tikvah Congregation, Minneapolis
