Each prayer its own world. With its own Torah to teach us. Most Friday night services move through fifteen prayers in one sitting. Shabbat Unbound asks a different question: what if we took just one prayer and really stayed with it? Over eight episodes, we give one prayer our full, undivided attention. Its history. Its language. Its music. The arguments it has sparked, the comfort it has given, and the questions it refuses to resolve.

Episode 3: Ana B'Koach
Welcome to Shabbat Unbound, the world's longest Friday night Sabbath service, stretching over eight episodes. Instead of rushing through all the Friday night Shabbat prayers in one sitting, like we might in a classical synagogue environment, we're taking our time diving deep into one prayer each episode through song study and sacred conversation. It's the most original and traditional way to engage in the transition into Shabbat, taking each prayer as its own world with its own Torah to teach us. Miriam Terlinchamp, Lex Rofeberg and an incredible group of musicians invite you to discover what happens when Shabbat slows down. The third episode focuses on Ana B'Koach.
