TB M'Gillah 25a on Avot in the Amidah - Monkeying with our Ancestors

Originally published 4/6/11, 10:38 am.
Liberals have altered, revised, and changed the Avot to include the Imahot

A quick glance at TB M'gillah 25a will find that the praises in Avot are specifically designated. "just so"

«If Moses had not written them in the Torah, and the Men of the Great Assembly not come and established them [THEN ] we would not recite them». [Tr. Schottenstein]

These praises in the Amidah are seen as needing to conform to Talmudic Norms. No ersatz praises need apply.

Aderabbah, they are a mosif that is a gorei'a. Which is ironic since the Left frequently disputes the Right of adding on to the Torah in such a way as to degrade it. Yet here they do so with gusto! <LOL>


Shalom,
RRW
