I think I remember reading about that...<BR/>Yes, I love Balaam's answer "No" at the end, too.

Our congregation had a similar issue with an "amen" at the end of a particular prayer where you're not supposed to have one--but for some reason it appeared there about 20 years ago, and never left. Finally the rabbis decided to set things straight, but habits are hard to break. It took quite some time, but eventually we got the idea when the hazzan began to hold the last word of the prayer for a very... long... time.<BR/><BR/>--aa.alto artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07101176587462737940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10494827.post-84393659194412058902008-07-08T03:21:00.000-04:002008-07-08T03:21:00.000-04:00Everybody singing along with the last few words of...Everybody singing along with the last few words of the parsha is technically a problem. If you haven't heard the reading from the ba'al(at) koreh, you haven't fulfilled your obligation. I have been to a few synagogues where the ba'al koreh solved this problem by waiting and then finishing the reading "solo". The congregation soon got the point.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13169109978694892927noreply@blogger.com
