Siddur Illuminated by Chassidus - Weekday Shacharis 7 X 10

Has that fantastic, new book smell.
For those familiar with the Chabad publisher, the book is to be iconic in layout and construction; both of which are astounding for the price. The book itself is simply pleasing to look at, and expands beautifully the weekday prayers. The translation is accurate, and as with any Chassidus text, quite illuminating. My only complaint is that the front, title page (right after the orange dedication section) was crumpled on arrival. This could easily be, and is most likely, attributed to Amazon shipping - which is good, given the scale of their operation.

Finally - the meaning behind the prayers easily read
Really quite fantastic. It's one thing to daven, its quite another to have...right at your fingertips...insights into the deeper meanings of the prayers. Even for those who recite the blessings in english, it's all right there: The translations and the meaning behind the words. This is also available for Friday evening service. Never again will someone need to complain "I don;t understand, so I don't do".Every single Jewish home, regardless of the level of observance, should have this book to read, display and use everyday!

Like Learning at the Knee of a Great Chassidic Master
Fabulous resource for those of ANY age who daven Nusach HaAri/Chabad, and want a deeper understanding of the sources and significance of every weekday (&Sunday) morning's prayer service. Just Deliciously close to having a translated version of The Alter Rebbe's magnificent Siddur Ohr Chaim--like being able to learn from The Alter Rebbe himself. Thrills me to my soul!

It's ok - not too practical to use.
It's ok. But with about 2/3 of each page being the commentary, it's not a very practical siddur to use. On the other hand, being extensive commentary, the siddur part proves a bit too limiting in forcing them to shorten the interesting chassidic commentary.Kind of limitations from trying to play both roles.The format is nice though.

... the Davening book by Rabbi David Sterne is a superior book but this commentary is ok
