Re: Megilah 022: Half Pesukim

hargrove stenmetz asked:
>>Can we learn from the issur on reciting half psukim something I once heard in 
>>the name of a Chassidishe Rebbe, "Mir zogt nisht a halbe pasuk," that is to 
>>say, one, in one's own daily conversations should not recite just half a 
>>pasuk but should always say the whole pasuk?

The Kollel replied:
>>The Chayei Adam (Klal 5, #2) says that one is permitted to say half a Pasuk - 
>>even if that half contains the Shem ha'Shem - unless it is Derech Keri'ah.  
>>Therefore, Pesukim that we quote in our speech or that we include in our 
>>writing don't have to be quoted in full.  It also means that Pasukim that are 
>>included in the Seder ha'Tefilah don't have to be quoted in full.  For 
>>example, at Hagba'ah the Tzibur says "Al Pi ha'Shem b'Yad Moshe" which is not 
>>a full Pasuk.  According to the Chayei Adam, it even means that if one makes 
>>a mistake in the Neginah or Ta'amim of a Pasuk during Keri'as ha'Torah, one 
>>can repeat part of the Pasuk because it is only being done to complete a 
>>Pasuk that was already read in full (as opposed to making a mistake in the 
>>the words of the Pasuk).

Hargrove responded:

Rabbi Sigler:

In that case, what does one do, when in saying Psukei DZimrah, skips a word of 
a pasuk OR sentence and says haShem, should he say Baruch Kvod?

--------------------------
The Kollel replies*:

I would not say Baruch Shem Kevod because maybe it is not necessary in which 
case it would be a Hefsek in Pesukei d'Zimra.  In fact, it probably is not 
necessary because reciting the Pesukim of Pesukei d'Zimra is not what the 
Chayei Adam refers to as "Derech Keri'ah" rather it is Derech Tefilah and 
Bakashah, where saying half a Pasuk is not a problem.  Even in Keri'as ha'Torah 
which is "Derech Keri'ah", if a person were to make a mistake in a Pasuk that 
had Hashem's name I don't think he would say Baruch Shem Kevod.  Baruch Shem 
Kevod seems to be reserved for making a Berachah l'Vatalah or a Berachah 
she'Einah Tzerichah.  Therefore I would simply repeat the Pasuk with the proper 
wording.

Kol Tuv,
Yonasan Sigler
