Siddur Offenbach, 1806. With Psalms


Siddur Offenbach - "Prayer services with parshiyot,  ma'aravot,  yotzrot and selichot, the service for Yom Kippur Kattan, Shir HaYichud and Psalms." Offenbach, 1806. Thick siddur for the entire year with instructions in Yiddish and Psalms with a Yiddish commentary.


Siddur per the custom of Eastern Germany (Polish custom) with parshiyot,  hoshanot and hymns: ma'aravot,  yotzrot, for special Shabbats and zulatot per the custom in Germany, as well as additional hymns,  krovetz for Tisha B'Av,  Shir HaYichud and Shir HaKavod,  Seder Techinot in Yiddish and more. The siddur additionally contains the Book of Psalms at the end, with a Yiddish translation in Tze'enah U'Re'enah letters. The Tehillim has a dedicated title page.


The siddur states at its beginning, in Hebrew, "Pillar of service with some laws of prayer" and "Laws of prayer, tzitzit and tefilin" in Yiddish. The siddur's title page bears Tzvi Hirsch Segal Shpitz's printer's device.
