idag tager jeg jer med til jerusalem til det buchariske kvarter for at lytte til 'selichot' - nogen helt særlige bønner om tilgivelse, der der traditionen tro skal siges mellem midnat og solopgang i 40 dage op til yom kipur
engang havde de natlige 'selichot'-bønner en helt særlig familiekarakter i dette kvarter, der blev grundlagt i 1880’erne af jøder fra iran, uzbekistan og afhganistan, den tradition der er nu tæt ved at dø
taking a walk through the bucharian quater of jerusalem to listen to the 'selichot' prayers traditionally being read for 40 nights leading up the yom kipur holiday
once the bucharian quarter - founded by jews of iran, afghanistan and uzbekistan in the 1880'ies - was a place of dusins of small synagogues and here was a very special family aura around the 'selichot' prayers - that tradition is about to die
