I am very happy I found this page with jewish videos for Deaf people. Are there more videos of prayers in ASL? Thanks, Hadasah. Reply

I have Googled "ASL Shema". A couple of places change the meaning of the first word in the Shema.

Each word in the Torah is very important.

What we really need is a תפילה for all people with special needs, so that no one will any longer have any special needs. Reply

in response to David - Sarota:

What?! Are you saying that Deaf people have special needs!? This is definitely not true, Deaf people can do anything and hearing people can do except hear. Reply
