Hallel
Made Simple
HALLEL IS six of our ancestor’s prayers
known as Teheilim/Psalms (#'s113–118), which are recited as a unit in
Synagouge in the morning, on joyous occasions including the Three Pilgrimage Festivals mentioned in the Torah (Passover (Pesach), Shavuot, and Sukkot,) as well as at Hanukkah and Rosh Chodesh (beginning of the new month). It is also recited in the Passover
seder, the first two psalms before the 2nd
cup of wine and the rest after Birkat Hamazon.
Most of it is sung to happy melodies.
Here’s
one Psalm that is part of Hallel in Haggadah- Psalm #114, “Bitzeyt Yisrael /Mah lecha Hayam”, from a bunch
of different times and melodies. Think
of three words you would use to describe each one.
