Description		    First edition of the comprehensive prayer book for the entire year with the Pesah Haggadah and a detailed kabbalistic commentary by R. Abraham ben Aaron Joseph. The title page of the siddur describes it as part one – part two follows without a title page but with separate foliation – as being according to the Shulhan Arukh and according to the Ari z”l, and with kavvanot ha-shemot and a explanation of the prayers to arouse a person’s heart to cleave to the Lord and to cause him to have devotion in prayers. In addition, the author has all the laws necessary related to prayers. It describes R. Abraham as also being the author of Divrei Avraham on Torah and the five Megillot. He was also, although not noted here, the author of Penei Avraham on tractate Shabbat, Rosh avraham on tractate Berakhot, Oneg Avraham on Shabbat and Pirkei Avot, and Simhat Avraham on festivals and the Haggadah. There are approbations from R. Joseph Hayyim Sonnenfeld and R. Abraham Isaac Kook, followed by the author’s introduction and inspirational material for prayer, laws of natilat yadiam, Tikkun Hazot, Tikkun Leah, and then the order of prayers with accompanying halakhot and commentary. The second part of Siddur Beit Avraham begins with preparing for Shabbat and includes festivals and the Haggadah commentary. The explanation accompanying prayers is detailed and comprehensive.
