The main part of the Exodus occurred during the day, when the Jewish people left Egypt. Therefore, the primary obligation of adjoining redemption to prayer is in Shacharit<\/i>. Nevertheless, because the redemption began at night, there is also a mitzvah to adjoin redemption to prayer at night. Yet, we are not as meticulous in adjoining redemption to prayer in Ma\u2019ariv<\/i> as we are in Shacharit<\/i>. Therefore, the Chachamim<\/i> instituted Birkat<\/i> Hashkiveinu<\/i> after Birkat<\/i> Ga\u2019al Yisrael<\/i> and considered it a continuation of Birkat<\/i> Ga\u2019al Yisrael<\/i>, for in Birkat<\/i> Ga\u2019al Yisrael<\/i> the blessing concerns the redemption of all Jews as a collective whole, while in Hashkiveinu<\/i> we request the redemption of the individual from the dangers of the night. Were we to be strict about adjoining redemption to prayer, it would be impossible to say Birkat<\/i> Hashkiveinu<\/i> after the blessing regarding the redemption.<\/p>\n

Similarly, Half-Kaddish<\/i> is recited between Birkot Keriat Shema<\/i> and the Amidah<\/i>, for that is the order of the prayer; at every transition point from one stage to another in the prayer service, Chazal<\/i> established saying Kaddish<\/i>. Although in Shacharit<\/i>, Kaddish<\/i> is not recited immediately before the Amidah<\/i> because of the great importance of not interrupting between redemption and prayer, in Ma\u2019ariv<\/i>, in which there is no need to be as meticulous in adjoining redemption to prayer, Kaddish<\/i> is recited between Birkot Keriat Shema<\/i> and the Amidah<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The custom in many places on Rosh Chodesh<\/i> night is that the gabbai<\/i> announces the words \u201cYa\u2019aleh V\u2019Yavo<\/i>\u201d before the Amidah<\/i> prayer, and on the night of the seventh of Cheshvan, when we begin to ask for rain, the gabbai<\/i> declares, \u201cTal U\u2019Matar<\/i>.\u201d In Shacharit<\/i>, we cannot interrupt with speech; instead, the gabbai<\/i> or chazan<\/i> reminds the congregation that there is something different in this Amidah<\/i> by pounding on the pulpit. Yet, in Ma\u2019ariv<\/i>, we are lenient and express this reminder verbally (Shulchan Aruch<\/i> 236:2; Mishnah Berurah<\/i> 7). Still, there are those who pound on the pulpit in Ma\u2019ariv<\/i> as well, so as not to interrupt with speech (see Kaf HaChaim<\/i> 336:17; Piskei Teshuvot <\/i>236:6).<\/p>\n

One who arrives late, when the congregation is about to start praying the Amidah<\/i>, should recite the Amidah<\/i> with the minyan<\/i>, and then make up Birkot Keriat Shema<\/i> afterwards. In Shacharit<\/i>, the halachah is that he must recite the prayers in order because adjoining redemption to prayer is more important than praying in a minyan<\/i>. However, in Ma\u2019ariv<\/i>, prayer in a minyan<\/i> takes precedence, and therefore he prays with the congregation and afterwards makes up Birkot Keriat Shema<\/i> (Shulchan Aruch<\/i> 236:3).[2]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

[2]<\/a>. Although Kaf HaChaim<\/i> 111:12 writes that according to the Kabbalah, even in Ma\u2019ariv<\/i> it is forbidden to switch the order of the prayers in the service, nevertheless, the Mishnah Berurah<\/i> rules like the Shulchan Aruch<\/i>, as do Yalkut Yosef<\/i>, part 3, p. 661 and Rabbi Chaim Palaggi<\/i>.<\/p>\n

There is an old custom to recite Birkat<\/i> Yir\u2019u Eineinu<\/i> after Hashkiveinu<\/i>, for it contains eighteen verses; see Mishnah Berurah<\/i> 236:5 where he writes that its recital was instituted to replace the Shemoneh Esrei<\/i>. There are Rishonim<\/i> who maintain that there was no authority to institute its recital after the time of the completion of the Talmud, and therefore it is not to be recited (Meiri<\/i>). Even so, many do have the custom to recite it. Talmidei Rabbeinu Yonah<\/i> write that the recital of Yir\u2019u Eineinu<\/i> was instituted instead of the Ma\u2019ariv<\/i> prayer which is optional, and even after people accepted Ma\u2019ariv <\/i>as an obligation, the custom to recite Yir\u2019u Eineinu<\/i> was not cancelled. There are poskim<\/i> who prove from the custom of reciting Yir\u2019u Eineinu<\/i> that there is no need to adjoin redemption to prayer in Ma\u2019ariv<\/i>. That is also the opinion of Rav Amram Gaon<\/i>. Hence, Kaddish<\/i> is also recited after Birkot Keriat Shema<\/i>. Nevertheless, the Ramban<\/i> and the Rashbam<\/i> did not recite Yir\u2019u Eineninu<\/i> or Kaddish<\/i>, so as not to interrupt between redemption and prayer.<\/p>\n

Already from the end of the time of the Rishonim<\/i>, it had become customary not to recite Birkat<\/i> Yir\u2019u Eineinu<\/i> in Sephardic congregations, although there were Ashkenazim<\/i> who still recited it. Nowadays, in Israel it is not customary to recite it (see Kaf HaChaim<\/i> 236:12 and Piskei Teshuvot<\/i> 7). However, Kaddish<\/i> is recited by all. Although it is the opinion of many Rishonim<\/i> not to recite this Kaddish<\/i>, so as not to interrupt the adjoining of redemption to prayer; nonetheless, all are accustomed to reciting it. The explanation of this is as I wrote above. Aruch HaShulchan<\/i> 236:8 writes that Kaddish<\/i> is a sort of redemption, so that the respect of Heaven will be revealed in the world, and therefore it is not considered as much of an interruption. See Beirur Halachah<\/i>, Berachot<\/i> 4b.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
