Conducting a Jewish Funeral 1
Shalom, this video is meant for people have appeared funeral program do you have guide if you are in funeral. Now, there is two possibilities one would be their will be a chapel service and then a grieve sider just a grieve side. I hope you explain both and this meant with the orthodox funeral this is my average funeral that we do a lot of what we do especially more. Either way you begin with a Sam now it is good you have the Sam past out.
So people going to read you, read them with you if you want Sam 23 the lord is my shepherd is a good 1, Sam 15 rabbis in God’s, there are both commonly done. There is a women then we ask do Proverb 31 or instead we do Proverb 31 a women of valley. Then you do eulogy now it is very important to get the name right? Find out the Hebrew name if you can, interview family, every meeting and invite everybody to come and any friends one to possibly and find out the biographical details make sure you get everybody who you supposed to says morn by who prentices him or her siblings or spouse possibly any one else name them all, get the name right.
Now then their history where will they born, the story of their child and their special interest were they are married. How they got married, how long were they married most the married like were they like to do together. Children, what kind of father or mother were they, grandparent, and sibling? Were they do for living, how they like the work and story about the work, hobbies interest, anything g special about it, special saying, their personality.
Did they ask specifically because sometimes people mentioned and do you ask, do they like to exercise, do they like to garden, to read, do they like music, theater, play, shopping. They really had particular kind of cooking, dress all those issues. Then you wave like a passive picture and just give it back to her and I think you really need the person and you want obviously the goals the comfort their mothers and I am trying to picked up something from the torah portion or they how they coming up to read of the bit of the Jews name in there, would definitely help you with that if you have any questions.
Okay after that you do define an English with reading that will be appropriate and then do every raise and do the Alma Herra Memorial Prayer which we will train you to do if you only here to now. Now, before you do all this I customarily do the Krea which is the tearing of a ribbon of the immediate mourners aware. Now, the immediate mourners are the husband, wife mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter, but their so many blended feel in this situation I am not tough on there. If somebody wear ribbon like a daughter in law or grandchild even though technically that I am immediate mourner I do not worry about it, it is up to you or the rabbi that you are working with of course. And when you cut the ribbon or you tear is they can cross tear clothing but how anyone ever does anymore. You say you have not say Baraca Hina malahalom apatelian hemet, bless thy the righteous kings, then you say I do not in that time I do not [Foreign Language] even though given the lord is taking away praise with the name of the lord.
Okay, then you do after you do the Alma relakamim, if it is just job or service basic need can you just go to the grieve side. If it is a grieve side two only then you do so a little bit different order give them and video number two.
