Our shul has, up on the front wall, a framed copy of Modim
d'Rabbanan. I've seen this particular one all over the
place. There's a note on the bottom that says it was donated by the
Shlomofs, if I'm not mistaken.
My question is this. Every siddur I've ever seen says "...al
she'hecheyitanu v'kiyamtanu, ken t'chayenu u-tekaymanu..."
(...because You have kept us in life and kept us going, may You keep
us in life and keep us going..." But this wall copy says "...al
she'hecheyitanu v'kiyamtanu, ken t'chonenu u-tekaymanu..."
(...because You have kept us in life and kept us going, may You be
gracious to us and keep us going..."
I asked the rabbi and the gabbai about this, and they both had the
same reaction. They'd never noticed it. And they had no idea if it
was problematic.
So I figured I'd ask the brilliant folks here. (a) Have you noticed
this? (b) Is this problematic?
