משנה: אָמַר לוֹ רִבִּי עֲקִיבָה אִם אֵינוֹ תוֹקֵעַ לַמַּלְכִיּוֹת לָמָּה הוּא מַזְכִּיר. אֶלָּא אוֹמֵר אָבוֹת וּגְבוּרוֹת וּקְדוּשַּׁת הַשֵּׁם וְכוֹלֵל מַלְכִיּוֹת עִם קְדוּשַּׁת הַיּוֹם וְתוֹקֵעַ. זִכְרוֹנוֹת וְתוֹקֵעַ. שׁוֹפָרוֹת וְתוֹקֵעַ. וְאוֹמֵר עֲבוֹדָה וְהוֹדָייָה וּבִרְכַּת כֹּהֲנִים: אֵין פּוֹחֲתִין מֵעֲשָׂרָה מַלְכִיּוֹת מֵעֲשָׂרָה זִכְרוֹנוֹת מֵעֲשָׂרָה שׁוֹפָרוֹת. רִבִּי יוֹחָנָן בֶּן נוּרִי אוֹמֵר אִם אָֽמְרָן שָׁלשׁ שָׁלשׁ יָצָא. אֵין מַזְכִּירִין מַלְכוּת זִכָּרוֹן שׁוֹפָר שֶׁל פּוּרְעָנוּת. מַתְחִיל בַּתּוֹרָה וּמַשְׁלִים בַּנָּבִיא. רִבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר אִם הִשְׁלִים בַּתּוֹרָה יָצָא: MISHNAH: Rebbi Aqiba said to him, if he does not blow for Malkhiot, why does he recite? But one recites “fathers”, “mightiness”, and “Sanctification of the Name”, includes Malkhiot with “Sanctification of the Day” and blows, Zikhronot and blows, Shofarot and blows, and recites “Service”, “Thanks”, and Priestly Blessing50As the Halakhah notes, this is practice to be followed..
One does not reduce to less than ten verses of Kingdom, ten verses of Remembrance, ten verses of Shofar. Rebbi Joḥanan ben Nuri says, if he said three of each he fulfilled his obligation. One does not mention verses of Kingdom, Remembrance, or Shofar of calamity. One starts with Torah and ends with Prophets; Rebbi Yose says, if he finished with Torah he fulfilled his obligation64Therefore the general practice is to recite of each kind 3 verses from the Torah, followed by three of Hagiographs, followed by three of Prophets, and the tenth verse again from the Torah (as prescribed by R. Joḥanan in the Halakhah.).

HALAKHAH: “One does not reduce to less than ten verses of Kingdom,” corresponding to the ten praises which David formulated, Hallelujah, praise God in his Sanctuary, praise Him in His mighty heaven, etc., up to every soul praise Jah, hallelujah65Psalms.150">Ps.150. Babli 32a.. Ten verses of Remembrance, corresponding to the ten confessions formulated by Isaiah, wash, cleanse, remove, etc.,learn to do good, seek justice, etc. What is written after this? Come and let us argue, says the Eternal,66Isaiah.1.16-18">Is. 1:16–18. etc. Ten verses of Shofar, corresponding to the seven sheep, one ox, one ram, and one goat67The musaf sacrifices of the day..

This fits a description of the executive power of a king, appropriate for a prayer celebrating the Eternal as King of the universe. On the other hand, the word routinely means “God”, not specifically adapted to the intended meaning.. “Powers” and “kingdoms” are counted as two, the words of Rebbi Yose; Rebbi Jehudah says, they do not. Sing to God, sing; sing to our King, sing69Psalms.47.7">Ps. 47:7. Since R. Yose does not accept the invocation of “God” as a celebration of Kingdom, he has only one reference., are counted as two, the words of Rebbi Jehudah; Rebbi Yose says, they are not. Rebbi Ze`ira asked, do they disagree about it and the sequel, or do they disagree about this text itself70The question is whether the next verse, Because God is King of all the Earth, sing intelligently, is a separate statement or not.? Since it was stated, everybody agrees about God is King over nations71Psalms.47.9">Ps. 47:9: God is King over nations, God sits on His holy throne. There is only one mention of Kingdom. Babli 32b. that it is one, this implies that they disagree about it and the sequel. Lift, o gates, your heads, and be raised, eternal doors; etc., Lift, o gates, your heads, and rise, eternal doors, etc. The first is counted as one and the second as two, the words of Rebbi Jehudah; Rebbi Yose said, the first as two and the second as three72Psalms.24.7-10">Ps. 24:7–10. Here again, Psalms.24.7-8">vv. 7–8 are considered one unit, Psalms.24.9-10">vv. 9–10 the other. In Psalms.24.8">v. 8, R. Jehudah considers who is the King of Glory as question, not an assertion of God’s kingship. R. Yose counts the number of mentions of “King” which are 2 in Psalms.24.7-8">vv. 7–8, 3 in vv. 9–10. Babli 32b..
רִבִּי יוֹחָנָן בֶּן נוּרִי אוֹמֵר אִם אָֽמְרָן שָׁלשׁ יָצָא. הֲוִינָן סָֽבְרִין מֵימַר. שָׁלֹשׁ מִכָּל אֶחָד וְאֶחָד. אַשְׁכַּחַת תַּנֵּי. אֲפִילוּ שָָׁלֹשׁ מִכּוּלָּן יָצָא. “Rebbi Joḥanan ben Nuri says, if he said three he fulfilled his obligation.” We wanted to say, three of each kind. It was found stated, even with three of all of them he fulfilled his obligation73The question is whether R. Joḥanan ben Nuri requires at least 9 verses for each of the three categories, and his difference with the anonymous Tanna is only about the tenth verse, or whether he only requires 3 verses for Malkhiot, 3 for Zikhronot, 3 for Shofarot, with a total of 9 verses for all three sections together. The second version is accepted. Babli 32a..
אֵין מַזְכִּירִין זִכָּרוֹן וּמַלְכוּת וְשׁוֹפָר שֶׁלְּפּוּרְעָנוּת. זִכָּרוֹן דִּכְתִיב אוֹתָם זָכַ֣ר יְי וגו׳. מַלְכוּת דִּכְתִיב חַי־אָ֕נִי נְאֻ֖ם יי אֱלֹהִים אִם־לֹ֠א בְּיָ֨ד חֲזָקָ֜ה וגו׳. שׁוֹפָר דִּכְתִיב כִּ֣י ק֤וֹל שׁוֹפָר֙ שׁוֹמַעַת נַפְשִׁ֔י תְּרוּעַ֖ת מִלְחָמָֽה. “One does not mention verses of Remembrance, or Kingdom, or Shofar of calamity.” Remembrance as it is written, those the Eternal remembered74Jeremiah.44.21">Jer. 44:21. etc. Kingdom as it is written, by My Life, says the Master, the Eternal, if not witha Strong Hand,75Ezekiel.20.33">Ez. 20:33. Babli 32b. etc. Shofar as it is written, for my soul hears the sound of shofar, the shout of war76Jeremiah.4.19">Jer. 4:19..
מַתְחִיל בַּתּוֹרָה וּמַשְׁלִים בַּנָּבִיא. מַה. לְשֶׁעָבַר. הָא כַתְּחִילָּה לֹא. אָמַר רִבִּי יוֹחָנָן. כֵּינִי מַתְנִיתָא. רִבִּי יוֹסֵה אוֹמֵר. צָרִיךְ לְהַשְׁלִים בַּתּוֹרָה. “One starts with Torah and ends with Prophets.” What, in the past? Therefore not from the start77The question is not about the text quoted, but about R. Yose’s statement: “if he finished with Torah.” This seems to say that it is tolerated, but not desirable, contradicting practice. Babli 32b.? Rebbi Joḥanan said, so is the Mishnah: It is necessary that one finish with a verse from the Torah.
