The design follows that of the Koren Siddur, using the same specially developed font, the unique "poetry-line" format, which facilitates correct punctuation and better comprehension. The various mistakes and inexactitudes which have slipped into the texts over time have been corrected based on the outstanding 30 year long research by Daniel Goldschmidt. Certian parts of hymns which were omitted in the Middle Ages by gentile censors or removed by rabbis because of internal sectarian necessities have been reprinted in full. Sections not usually included in present day services are printed on a grey background, so as to make public prayers easier to follow. Torah readings and second days of Festivals celebrated outside Israel are printed on a grey background. A short commentary on the hymns by Daniel Goldschmidt appears on the bottom of each page. All the Machzorim were edited by Yona Frankel. This setof three is beautifully slip cased. Nusach Ashkenaz.
