Talmud su Salmi 145:1

תְּהִלָּ֗ה לְדָ֫וִ֥ד אֲרוֹמִמְךָ֣ אֱלוֹהַ֣י הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ וַאֲבָרֲכָ֥ה שִׁ֝מְךָ֗ לְעוֹלָ֥ם וָעֶֽד׃

[Un salmo di] lode; di David. Ti esalterò, mio ​​Dio, o re; E benedirò il tuo nome per sempre.

Jerusalem Talmud Berakhot

Rebbi Zeïra and Rebbi Yehudah12Since he is mentioned after Rebbi Zeïra, he must be Rebbi Yehudah Neśia, Patriarch and grandson of Rebbi. in the name of Rav13In the Babli (40b), Rav is reported to have said that no benediction is valid without mention of the Name (YHWH), and Rebbi Yoḥanan notes that, in addition, the Kingdom must be mentioned. [The formula for the Kingdom: “our God, King of the Universe,” probably was introduced to counter Christian ideas that God’s kingdom is not of this world.] In addition, Abbaye notes in the Babli that Rav will not require R. Yoḥanan’s addition. The formulation of the Yerushalmi shows that in Galilee, they interpreted the statement of Rav that one is required to say “You” to mean that one has to say “You, o Eternal,” since in adressing somebody in the second person one must specify the adressee. Hence, the statement of R. Yoḥanan in the Babli was meant as clarification of Rav’s statement, not a new requirement; it does not have to be mentioned since Rebbi Yoḥanan would disclaim any originality. Only in Babylonia they adopted a narrow interpretation of Rav’s words. [In practice, reference to the Kingdom is required only for benedictions that either stand alone or start a series of benedictions.]: Any benediction without mention of the Kingdom is no benediction. Rebbi Tanḥuma said, I shall give the reason (Ps. 145:1): “I shall elevate You, my God, o King!” Rav said, one has to say “You,” but Samuel said, one does not have to say “You14A practical reminder of Samuel’s opinion is the formula of Grace for people who are too ignorant to pray in Hebrew: “Praised be the All-merciful, Owner of this bread.”.”
