It is well known that ancient piyyut replaced parts of the prayer or was added to it, but the liturgical and poetic implications of this fact have barely been discussed. One such implication has to do with destabilization in various forms that are inherent to the curious position of the supplement. It was Jacques Derrida who first explored the dangerous riches of supplementarity and its "illogical logic," and some of his central observations serve here as guiding lights to a new understanding of the relation between prayer and poetry in the synagogue. The first part of the article introduces this view of piyyut through a critique o...

Later in history, those same poems crossed boundaries of time and custom. Instead of remaining fastened to their original timing, some of the poems changed their temporal setting several times, acquiring a new liturgical and temporal context. In this essay, I confess my love to both gestures: to the attachment of a poem to its time, and to its recurrent uprooting and recontextualization. To love poems this way means one must adhere to the most traditional philological procedure of reconstructing an original context for a poem, just so one could bear witness to the loss of these origins, and to the unique, perhaps utopian possibility that such loss reveals. One corners these poems, simply to watch them thrive elsewhere. Through personal scenes from my upbringing and through brief readings in the words of ancient sages, medieval poets, and continental philosophers, I wish to think through this passion for the time and counter-time of poetry.
