| Question | — |
Mamzer child of a Kohen What are the rules regarding a mamzer who is the child of a kohen (and a woman with whom the kohen could not enter into a proper marriage)? Could the child eat trumah? What aspects of the status of kohen would exist and which would not? I'm not (yet) asking about the effect it might have on the fa... (more) |

There are the "zeh omer ani" sections but I'm not sure if that's what I mean. I have to refine my thinking. (more) |

@JoelK yes, but there the word is adonei (יז) כִּי יְקֹוָק אֱלֹהֵיכֶם הוּא אֱלֹהֵי הָאֱלֹהִים וַאֲדֹנֵי הָאֲדֹנִים so I'm wondering if there is a rule that can be applied just to Hashem's name (the question of why there would be different grammar for the name then arises) (more) |

| Question | — |
Is there any davening unique to being said when alone? I know that there are parts of davening that one can only say, or be involved with saying, in the presence of a minyan, but I was wondering if there were pieces of davening that can only happen when one is NOT with a minyan (and the extension, when one is all by himself). I'm curious if there is anyt... (more) |

@JoelK would it be accurate to say "when the name is preceded by a patach, the two sounds become coalesced into one syllable (va/do)"? (more) |

@JoelK does the vowel under the first letter of Hashem's name change? (more) |
— | almost 4 years ago |
| Comment | Post #276972 |
@JoelK does it have to do with the vowel sound under the prefix (e.g. a patach would cause a combined syllable while a segol, because it is distinct from the opening vowel sound of A-do-nai, would create 2 separate syllables)?

| Question | — |
How is God's name pronounced when there is a prefix? The 4 letter name for Hashem is replaced with the word a/d-/nai (3 syllables). But my siddur doesn't put vowels under each instance, so I'm not sure how to say the word when it is preceded b a prefix lake a vav, a lamed or a beit. The word "e/l-/kei" becomes vei/l-/kei with the addition of the pre... (more) |

@manassehkatz that begs 2 questiona (assuming a time when sacrifices can be made): 1. If it extends in the absence of a korban, does it extend for another definite term or it just keeps going? 2. can all sacrifices be offered on any day of the year? Are there any days on the calendar when would NOT h... (more) |

The End of a Period of Nezirut Must a Nazir explicitly break the terms of his Nezirut on the day that his term of Nezirut ends (or the day after the last day)? If he doesn't is there any notion of his implicitly accepting another term or is the term over and if he happens not to do anything which is forbidden to a Nazir that do... (more) |

Avinu Malkeinu as part of Tachanun I know the following: 1. The word "considered" will surely invoke the response "by whom." I have no answer but want to know the breadth of opinions. 2. The question begs "what does it matter?" I have yet to figure out if it does at all matter (other than to clarify the order of prayers), but I'm ... (more) |

I don't think that any search engine can account for every single teaching but I'm also not sure what counts as "ethical" teaching as opposed to a non-ethical one.

when you look in your chumash at the 10 dibrot, you will see 2 sets of trop notation -- one for when you lain and one for when you study. To my eyes, this points to an expectation that even out of shul, you will use the trop. (more) |

I used to daven in a shul which had no talking at all. It simply wasn't tolerated. And the people who attended bought in to that and held fast to the rule. I took it on myself not to talk during davening, beginning to end. I don't always stick to that, but I do often. The absolute nature of the claim... (more) |

| Answer | — |
A: Should the repetition of the amidah be discontinued? The Rav (Joseph B. Soloveitchik) understood the Rambam's discussion of the repetition to point to a separate mitzvah of the public prayer as said with the congregation, one that would be lost if the repetition were ended. Additionally, there are certain parts (like the priestly blessing and kedusha) ... (more) |
