The story behind the HPLS Phonetic Transliterated Siddur

B"H"
Dear Friend,
The idea for the series came many years ago when I attended a Mincha minyan (quorum of 10 in a Jewish prayer group) and not one person among us could lead the service. This real need inspired me to transliterate a siddur (Hebrew prayer book) that everyone could use. The HPLS is the direct result of my personal quest for a tool to help me pray in Hebrew.

For many, particularly those without the benefit of formal Jewish education, HPLS helps break the Hebrew language barrier. Unlike a typical Hebrew course, where fluency comes only after months or years of study, HPLS users can say the complete Jewish prayer service right away by simply following the HPLS siddur!

Praying in Hebrew is easy using HPLS transliterations. Correct pronunciation is assured by the use of a unique phonetic spelling that I developed exclusively for the HPLS. To ensure accuracy and completeness, a renowned Jewish scholar has extensively edited all Hebrew text, translations, and transliterations.

For additional usability, the Hebrew letters, Hebrew-to-English transliteration and English translation are all together on each line of text. This closeness enables you to quickly switch between the Hebrew, English translation, and transliteration.

The HPLS siddur allows you to easily FOLLOW and LEAD the morning, afternoon, and evening prayer services for the weekdays, Shabbat, and the major Jewish holidays. The HPLS Series also provides the Grace after Meals, the Passover Seder, and various songs, blessings, and prayers.

If, like me, you have longed to participate more fully in the service, and find meaning in praying in the language of our forefathers, then I'm sure you'll be pleased with this series.

B'shalom,

Ephraim Linker
