with commentary WITH ASARAH MA\'AMAROTHEBREWVG CONDITION, HARDCOVERAkdamut, or Akdamus or Akdamut Milin, or Akdomus Milin ( \"In Introduction to the Words,\" i.e. to the Aseret ha-dibrot, the Ten Commandments), is a prominent Aramaic liturgical poem recited annually on the Jewish holiday of Shavuos by Ashkenazi Jews. It was penned by Rabbi Meir bar Yitzchak (\"Nehorai\") of Orléans, who was either a cantor or prayer leader in Worms, Germany, (died ca. 1095). Akdamut consists of praise for God, His Torah, and His people.Akdamut is read on the first day of Shavuos during the Torah service. The original practice was for it to be recited after the reading of the first verse of the lection (Exodus 19:1), but in the past few centuries, the practice has developed in many congregations (mainly Eastern European ones) that the poem is read after the kohen has been called to the Torah reading, but before he has made the blessing. The reason for the original practice was that, from Biblical times to well into medieval times, each verse of the Torah reading in Hebrew would be followed by its interpretation into Aramaic, and therefore it would be appropriate, after the first Hebrew verse was read, for another reader to provide an Aramaic gloss including this \"introduction\". However, when the simultaneous Aramaic interpretation fell into disuse, the recitation of Akdamut remained between the first and second Hebrew verses, where it no longer seemed an appropriate interruption, so it was relocated to before the commencement of the Torah reading.[1] In most synagogues it is read responsively: the ba\'al korei singing two verses, and the congregation responding with the next two verses. Although it is considered \"Judaism\'s best-known and most beloved piyut\",[2] there are some synagogues where it is not recited.[3]Its adoption into the regular liturgy took some time; it is not mentioned as part of the Shavuos liturgy until the first decade of the 15th century and the earliest prayerbook to contain it was published in 1557.[4] Apparently it replaced an earlier piyyut, Arkin Moshe, which was a folkloric poem describing the excitement among the angels when God brought Moses up to Heaven to receive the Ten Commandments.[5] The adoption of Akdamut into the liturgy may have been assisted by a folktale that connected its composition with a miraculous event involving the defeat of an evil sorceror monk who was using magic to kill countless Jews
