Seder Hosha'anot.

£2,250 · Offered by Shapero Rare Books · No longer available

The Hosha'anot prayers are recited every day during the holiday of Sukkot, as a reminder of the holiday ceremonies that were performed in the days of the Temple. Instead of circling the altar raising willow branches (the willow being one of the Four Species of Sukkot), the worshipers circle around the 'bimah' in the synagogue, while holding the Four Species and reciting the Hosha'anot. The Torah Scrolls are taken out from the ark and also carried around the 'bimah' during the ceremony. Hebrew manuscript on paper (27.8 x 20.6 cm), rebacked contemporary blind-tooled calf; [17] ll., (last leaf blank).
