Description
   Only edition of on the clarity of prayer by R. Levi Yerahmi’el Klatsko. The title page describes Erekh Tefilah as being in two parts. The first is Ma’arkhei ha-Lashon, which is addresses the essence of prayer, the source of prayers, and its language. The second part, Erekhet Sifata’im on the clarity of prayer, the various rites, and other related issues. The introduction is followed by approbations from R. Abraham Baruch Klatsko, father of the author and R. Mordecai Plongian, both approbations written as personal letters. The text of both Ma’arkhei ha-Lashon and of Erekhet Sifta’im are set in square letters with detailed annotations at the bottom of the page in rabbinic letters. The last part of the book which explains individual prayers in the daily and Shabbat service is entirely in rabbinic letters.
