This book illustrates some examples of this historical composite characteristics of the Jewish liturgy in a unique visual manner. Major examples of the prayers are presented in the first part of the book using distinct colored type to help vividly show the era of their historical origins.

Following that discussion, this book illuminates the polyphonic nature of the contents of the prayers. It shows how the prayers not only derive from distinct periods of history but also that they convey a polyphony of distinctive melodic themes, sung by different distinctive personalities and yet joined together into a complex composite liturgical symphony.
