Akdamus Millin
''Akdamut'', or ''Akdamus'' or ''Akdamut Milin'', or ''Akdomus Milin'' (Aramaic: אַקְדָמוּת מִלִּין, "In Introduction to the Words," i.e. to the ''Aseret ha-dibrot,'' the Ten Commandments), is a prominent piyyut ("liturgical poem") recited annually on the Jewish holiday of Shavuot by Ashkenazi Jews written in Aramaic. It was penned by Rabbi Meir bar Yitzchak (''Nehorai'') of Orléans, who was a cantor (prayer leader) in Worms, Germany, (died ca. 1095). ''Akdamut'' consists of praise for God, His Torah, and His people. ''Akdamut'' is read in almost all Ashkenazi synagogues on the first day of Shavuot during the Torah reading.

Mill (grinding)
A mill is a device, often a structure, machine or kitchen appliance, that breaks solid materials into smaller pieces by grinding, crushing, or cutting. Such comminution is an important unit operation in many processes. There are many different types of mills and many types of materials processed in them.

Milling also refers to the process of breaking down, separating, sizing, or classifying aggregate material (e.g. mining ore). For instance rock crushing or grinding to produce uniform aggregate size for construction purp ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
