Description

This fact-filled volume explains 1050 Jewish customs, their reasons, and sources. Why do we make hand matzos round? Why do we eat dairy foods on Shavuos? Why do we stand with our feet together when we recite Shemoneh Esreh? These and hundreds of other practices are explained in this English edition of Otzar Ta'amei ha-Minhagim.
