What it is
Reb David Wolfe-Blank’s Meta-Siddur is a Jewish Renewal prayer book of hand-made pages of meditations, charts, diagrams, translations, and “meta-translations” that open the prayers from the inside.
This edition keeps each page as Reb David made it, at the center of the screen, and builds margins around it, so the book can be read, searched, and studied.
