Prayer: Baruch Sheamer And Yishtabach

1. it has come from passages for prayers but it has mostly come from from the Psalms. There are two prayers that we open and close with and they are Baruch Sheamer and Yishtabach. We usually do Pesukei Dezimra in the morning services.

2a. Three prayers are Barechu yotzer, Ohr ahaha rabbah and Kedushah.
b. We usually find this around chapter 145 of tehillim although before the original taken was from 145 to the end of tehillim.

3. It is to show how important it is to serve hashed and saying pesukei dezimra properly will help you get to a spiritual level and you will also feel the connection.

4a. 150 chapters in Tehillim.
b. It includes chapters 30,100 and 145-150

5. Hashem is the Creator Who brought all of creation into being with nothing
Mizmor Shir Chanukat haBayit (psalm 30). It is a psalm of thanksgiving, ascribed to King David upon the occasion of his temple.
a. Yes.

8. Ashrei psalm 145
a. We recite it everyday because it contains the entire alphabet as well as the verse “Poteach et yadecha” - which is the most important - the point of covering the entire alphabet is apparently to indicate that every possible praise is appropriate for God. “Proteach et yadecha” teaches us that God’s oversight extends to every single creature - implying that nobody is exempt from giving praise.

9. The prayer T has an alphabetical acrostic structure where the beginning of each sentence begins with a letter from the Hebrew alphabet. The second thing is almost all the sentences except one consist of two phrases joined by the conjunction “and”.

10a. Az Yashir is also known as the Song of the Sea it is from the Book Of Exodus.
b. Yes, the earliest versions of Pesukei Dezimra did not include any recital of Az Yashir, it is now included immediately before Yishtabach, because it contains fifteen mentionings of Hashem’s holy Name, thus corresponding to the fifteen praises of Hashem that are stated in
• Psalm 30 • Baruch Sheamar • Psalm 100 • Yehi Kivod • Hallel • Baruch Hashem L’Olam • Vayivarrech David • Ata Hu Hashem L’Vadecha • Az Yashir • Nishmat ) • Shochein Ad • Yishtabach

12a. The offering, Lavar is before.
b. Barachu includes, shame and amid is after

13. The main prayer added on shabbat is Nishmat, it is inserted between Az Yashir and Yishtabach.

14. They are both equally important. They both have different meanings and significance as part of the morning tefillah.

Bonus questions: • The letter "Nun" stands for the word "nefilah," which means "falling." This word has a negative connotation, since it is used regarding the fall of the Jewish people. • Mizmor Letoda is a daily praise to hashem recited standing up, we say it to thank hashem for the natural order of the world, it can be said with more concentration when unsure of whether to say Hagomel or not. • It is not said on Shabbat, Yom Tov, Chol Hamoed Pesach, Erev Pesach and Erev Yom
