publication of scholarly books of high quality regardless of sales potential.

editions that present Hebrew or Yiddish texts along with their English
translations.Address all editorial inquiries to Professor Michael A. Meyer, chair, Publications Committee, or Barbara Selya, managing editor. E-mail address: hucpress@huc.edu. The cover of this catalogue is taken from a women's prayer book in Hebrew and Yiddish by Moses Coutinho, Amsterdam, 1704. The illustration depicts the observance of laws relating to the lighting of Sabbath candles, the taking of challah, and the observance of niddah (marital separation during periods of uterine bleeding). These laws are often referred to as the "three women's commandments."
