תלמוד על ברכות 5:3

And similarly, Amen Amen¹⁶⁸The expression Amen Amen appears as very positive expression twice in the Bible (Num. 5:22, Neh. 8:6); both times the two words are separated by pasek. In addition, 3 times one finds Amen, we-Amen. One has to conclude that the only act which is rejected here is if the word is repeated immediately, without hiatus. The same argument has to be applied to Modim Modim in the Mishnah., hear hear¹⁶⁹Not to give the impression that one has to hear instructions from two different deities.. An interpreter who stands in front of a Sage is permitted neither to change, nor to circumlocute, nor to add unless he was his father or his teacher. Rebbi Pedat¹⁷⁰The son of R. Eleazar ben Pedat. was the speaker of Rebbi Yasa. Things which he had heard from his father he referred to: so says my teacher in my father’s name. Things which he had not heard from his father he referred to: so says my teacher in Rebbi Eleazar’s name. Bar Yashita was the speaker of Rebbi Aḥa. Things which he had heard from his father he referred to: so says my teacher in my father’s name. Things which he had not heard from his father he referred to: so says my teacher in Rebbi Ḥinena’s name. When Rebbi Mana was instructing in a group, things which he had heard from his father in his house he referred to: so says my teacher in Rebbi Jonah’s name¹⁷¹This text is problematic. R. Mana II was R. Jonah’s son and R. Yose’s student.. Things which he had heard from his father in the Academy he referred to: so says Rebbi Jonah.
