This straightforward post presents the Reform tradition<\/a> for the Havdalah ceremony that concludes Shabbat, including an audio recording<\/a> that uses Jewish American singer-songwriter\u00a0Debbie Friedman<\/a>‘s popular melody and the full Hebrew, English and transliterated texts of the blessing. The Reform Havdalah ceremony contains only the four central blessings of the ceremony, without any preceding verses. This resource from ReformJudaism.org<\/a>, the official website of the Reform movement, is a helpful resource for anyone looking to learn a shorter version of the Havdalah ceremony.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
