Two questions were raised this evening about the Modim D'Rabbanan recited
by the kehillah during the repetition of the Amidah.<br><br>
(1) As in many shuls, on the wall hangs a poster of the Modim D'Rabbanan.
However, the text of the poster differs by one word from the text in all
of the siddurim. Where the siddurim read
"us-kay-me-nu"/"ut-kay-me-nu" the poster reads
"us-cha-ne-nu"/"ut-cha-ne-nu." The issue came up, in
part, because apparently the Daf Yomi just learned Daf Mem, Amud Alef of
Sotah, where this prayer is discussed--and the text of the Gemara is the
text of the poster and not the siddurim. So, does anyone know why our
siddurim differ from the posters and the Gemara, and how this came
about? Alan<br> <br></div></blockquote><div><br>parallels:<br>Just as YOU [G-d} did X and Y<br>
So should YOU {G-d} do X and Z <br><br>Does that make literary sense<br><br>
So here is how Ashkenaz reads:<br><br>al shehechiyasanu vkiyamtanu<br>Kine Techayenu usekaymeinu <br> </div><div>The paralells are X & Y twice and This is a form of the bracah shehecheyanu. Techaneinu looks to be a lacuna.<br>
