Yes, specific prayers and readings are integral to a Jewish funeral service, including the recitation of the "Kaddish" (Mourner's Prayer), which affirms faith in God despite the loss. The service may also include readings from the Psalms and other Hebrew scriptures, offering comfort and reflection on the cycle of life and death. These elements are chosen to honor the deceased, provide solace to the mourners, and express the community's collective mourning and support.
