The death of a loved one is one of life's most devastating events,
often leaving survivors with more questions than answers. On
Comforting Wings draws on the customs, practices, and liturgy of
Judaism's traditions, guiding the reader through the challenges via
an understanding of the rituals, theology, and psychology of the
mourning practices. The reader is first introduced to the basics of
what it is to be a mourner, preparations to be made, guidelines
concerning the casket, and viewing the body. Additionally, the
dynamics of the funeral and burial services are explained, as are
the customs and ceremonies of the mourning period. Further, the
erection of a monument, cementery visitations, and theological and
psychological components of the mourning period are examined.
Outlines of both the funeral and burial services from Judaism's two
major traditions are presented, along with specific prayers the
mourners may choose in order to have the services both rooted in
tradition and meaningful.
