A fragment from a complete version of the Rosh ha-Shanah services, including the text of regular blessings.
The fragment starts at the end of the Morning ʹAmidah, from the sixth blessing מדור לדור נודה to the end, followed by the prayer Avinu Malkenu (18 verses), similar to the version found in Siddur Rav Amram Gaon (Seder Rav Amram Gaʾon. Warsaw, 1865, p. 45) with a few minor variants and four additional verses.
Instructions on the Torah reading (first day) and Shofar blowing follow, in 11 lines of Judeo-Arabic, in a smaller, more cursive hand.
Under the headline עלות מוסף ראש השנה is the beginning of the Musaf service. The fragment reaches the High Holiday supplements to the third blessing, up to משיחך במרה בימינו.
Forms part of: Cairo Genizah Collection.
