Kaddish

Ancient Jewish prayer in praise of God, normally regarded as a prayer to be said by the bereaved on behalf of a deceased parent, although there is no mention of death or mourning in it. It is in Aramaic apart from the last sentence, which is in Hebrew.

A male mourner is traditionally required to chant the Kaddish at three services each day except the Sabbath for a period of 11 months. The words of the Christian doxology are derived from the Kaddish prayer.
