[Avodah] 1960 de Sola Pool Edition of the RCA Siddur

[Aryeh Frimer]

I thank all those who answered my query.    Interestingly, there were two 1960 editions of the de Sola Pool Edition .   The First had the "son of God" translation for "bar E-lahin" in "Brikh Shmei".  This caused a bit of a ruckus.  Later that year, a second edition appeared in which the translation became “a created being”. It also included a introduction to the translation, though Brikh Shemei is not mentioned therein.   Most modern translations (Koren, Artscroll) use "angel", which is the meaning of "bar E-lahin"  in Sefer Daniel 3:25. [See also  the Mesorat HaRav Rosh Hashana Machzor p. 395 note 1, and Introductory material,  Hanhagot haRav, no. 57. p. Lv]
