91. Berachot 29A-29B | Structure/History of Amidah | When Can You Shorten the Amidah? In this shiur we study Gemara Masechet Brachot 29A–29B and trace how the structure of the Amidah was derived, when and why extra blessings are added, and practical halachic consequences when one forgets insertions. Topics covered: Why the weekday Amidah has 18 brachot (and the origin of the 19th) How Psalm (Tehillim) chapter 29 serves as a model (18 names of God, seven "kolot") Correspondences behind 7-bracha prayers (Shabbat/Yom Tov), 9-bracha Musaf (Rosh Hashanah) and 24-bracha special prayers (fasts / special communal need) The Mishnah’s dispute (Rabban Gamliel vs. Rabbi Yeshua vs. Rabbi Akiva) about saying the full Amidah vs. an abridged version Two abridgement approaches and the text of Havinenu (Shmuel’s condensed formula) Strong opposition to routine use of Havinenu (Abaye’s stance) and when a shortened text is permitted (travel, illness, extenuating circumstances) Practical problems with using Havinenu on Motza’ei Shabbat / Yom Tov and in winter months because of Havdalah and the request for rain (veten tal u’matar) The Gemara’s discussions on how and when you can remedy omissions: repeating the Amidah vs. adding the phrase later in Shema Koleinu or on the cup (Havdalah) Halachic distinctions between Ashkenazi and Sephardi practice around Baruchenu / Baruch alenu and how that affects what to do when one forgets Examples from Tanach (Hannah, Samuel; Solomon’s 24 expressions) and practical classroom Q&A from the shiur
