The Beurei Hatefila Institute was established to provide teachers in Jewish schools the resources necessary to create courses in Tefila, Jewish Prayer. Here you can view materials explaining the sources for the words and structure of the Jewish Prayer book, the Siddur.

A Gift From A Famous Father To His Famous Son

The materials include newsletters covering the daily prayers, Rosh Chodesh, Shabbat, Yomim Tovim, Rosh Hashonah and Yom Kippur; articles written by Abe Katz and others; digitized books on Tefila and recordings of on line classes presented by Abe.

The inspiration for Abe’s work was the years spent by Abe studying Beurei Hatefila with Rabbi Isaiah Wohlgemuth, z”l at Maimonides School, Brookline, MA, the school established by Rabbi Joseph Soloveitchik, z”l.
