Hayom Yom 18 Tishrei - Customs for saying Hoshanos


Listen Later

אוֹמְרִים אוֹם אֲנִי חוֹמָה וְגַם אָדוֹן הַמּוֹשִׁיעַ

[On this day, Sunday,] we recite both the hymn beginning Hoshana om ani chomah and the hymn beginning Hoshana Adon HaMoshia, 

אֲבָל אֵין מַקִּיפִים אֶלָּא פַּעַם אַחַת

but we circle [the reader’s dais] only once.

אוֹמְרִים תֵּיבַת "הוֹשַׁעֲנָא", הֵן בְּרֹאשׁ וְהֵן בְּסוֹף

[Every day,] we add the word Hoshana at the beginning and end

בְּאוֹתָם הָאוֹתִיּוֹת שֶׁאוֹמְרָם הַשְּׁלִיחַ צִבּוּר בְּקוֹל רָם

[Every day,] we add the word Hoshana at the beginning and end of each of the phrases that the sheliach tzibbur chants aloud.

בְּהַשְּׁאָר אוֹמְרִים רַק פַּעַם אַחַת

For the other phrases, the word Hoshana is said only once.

"מִנְהָגֵנוּ לְהַתְחִיל בְּקוֹל רָם מֵאוֹת "ס" אוֹ "ע

According to our custom, the sheliach tzibbur begins to chant aloud from the phrases that begin with the letter samech or ayin.

"מְדַיְּקִים לַעֲשׂוֹת הֶקֵּף שָׁלֵם וּמַשְׁלִימִים בְּאוֹת “ת

One should make a point of fully circling [the reader’s dais], completing the circuit as one reaches the phrase that begins with the [last] letter, taf.
