Mourner's Kaddish (a.k.a. Kaddish Yatom)

This prayer is recited as part of Jewish mourning rituals. It is written in Aramaic, not Hebrew (except for the last line, Oseh Shalom, a Hebrew prayer for peace). Even though this prayer is associated with death and mourning, it does not actually mention death. It's rhythmic recitation of praises can bring comfort to mourners.

Thank you, this was one of the very few Kaddish I found that did not hurt my ears.......

[@jgjgjgjg9654]

I thought this was very neatly done. Yashar Kochech, I've passed it on on a couple of occasions.

Dear Rabbi, thank you so much for posting this. I am preparing for my granmothers funeral and your voice is clear and wonderful. Is it possible to do another version without the text being flipped, which is making it hard to learn, as the text is flipping around while you are still reading? Scrolled in some way, or just change phrases after a pause, leaving the text static would be really helpful. Thank you, Clare

[@TheUTubeRabbi]

Hi Clare. I am so sorry for your loss. I am taking your suggestion into account for future videos. If you or anyone else wants to avoid the flipping, you could play the audio of this clip and look at the words here: reformjudaism.org/practice/prayers-blessings/mourners-kaddish
