<div>Shalom All,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Just some issues that have bothered me for the past few Yomim Noroim.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1) Isn't saying Shir HaMaalos MiMamakim a hefsek between Yishtabach and
Borchu?</div></font></div></blockquote><div><br>YES. But a hefsek is OK to anounce a request for a Beis Din to convene. IOW, that is the time used to plead one's case for justice in front of the congregation. That is porbably the opening [pesach] used to permit this. Personally, the Yekkes don't do it and I feel better about skipping them myself.

<div>2) Where did the paragraphs of Maaseh Enosh enter into the Piyut of Maaseh
Elokaynu? In the Roedelheim Machzor they don't appear.</div></font></div></blockquote><div><br>The original piyyut alternated between Ma'aseh Elokeinu and Mas'seh Enosh and was cut down. Roedelheim omitted "enosh" 100% and other minhaggim kept 2 strophes before the last Ma'aseh Elokeinu I thnk Birnbaum discusses this a bit, maybe Artscroll, too.

<div>3) The recital of L'Dovid Mizmor posuk by posuk on the evening of RH and
YK, how come?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>4) Isn't blowing Tekios during the Kaddish Sholeim following Musaf RH a
hefsek? Couldn't they be blown afterwards?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you in advance!<br></div></font></div><br></blockquote></div>The last 2 area alein to the German Minhag. I don't know how they started.<br>FWIW #3 is according to [ at least 1 opninion in] Artrscroll a prayer for parnassah.
