The earliest parts of the Siddur prayer book are the Shema Yisrael ("Hear O Israel") (Deuteronomy 6:4 et seq), and the Priestly Blessing (Numbers 6:24-26), which are in the Torah. A set of eighteen (currently nineteen) blessings called the Shemoneh Esreh or the Amidah (Hebrew, "standing prayer"), is traditionally ascribed to the Great Assembly in the time of Ezra, at the end of the Biblical period. This Jewish Siddur Prayer Book contains the Morning, Afternoon, and Evening Services for Sabbath, the New Moon, Chanukah, Purim, and the Mourner's Kaddish in additional to other blessings and prayers.
