Halakhah sa Ezekiel 3:12: Mishneh Torah, Prayer and the Priestly Blessing, Shulchan Arukh, Orach Chayim & Tur

The order of the prayers is as follows. In the morning, on arising, a person recites the blessings mentioned above; then reads the Psalms—reciting the appropriate blessings before and after them. Then he reads the Shema, reciting the blessings before and after it, omitting the Kedusha^*Sanctification (Isaiah 6:3, Ezekiel 3.12). from the former of the two blessings before the Shema, this not being recited by an individual in his private devotions. When he has concluded the blessing after the Shema, which closes with the phrase, "Who redeemedst Israel" he immediately rises, so that the reference to the Redemption may be connected with the Amidah prayer, which, as already stated by us, is recited standing. When this prayer is concluded, he sits down, bows his head, offers up supplications, raises his head and still seated, offers further supplications. Then he reads "The Psalm of David" (Psalm 145), offers according to his ability, more supplications, after which he proceeds to his affairs.

How is public worship conducted? One person recites the prayers aloud, and all the rest listen. This is not done, if there are less than ten adult men present, the Reader being counted in the number. Even if some of them have already said their prayers and thus discharged their obligation, they help to complete the quorum of ten, provided that the majority have not yet said their prayers. So too, the Kedushah^*Isaiah 6:3; Ezekiel 3:12; Psalms 146:10. is not recited, nor is the Torah recited with the blessing before and after the reading, nor the lesson from the prophets read [with its blessings], unless a quorum of ten is present.

After he has completed reciting the whole Amidah, he seats himself, bows his head, inclines slightly sideways; all the congregants doing the same. In this attitude, he offers up supplications. He then sits up and raises his head, the rest of the people doing the same; and, while seated, offers supplications aloud. The reader then rises alone and recites the Kaddish a second time, the Congregation making the responses as on the first occasion. He then recites, "And He, being merciful, forgiveth iniquity, etc.," then, the Psalm of David—(Psalm 145). The reader in the meanwhile stands; the congregation remains seated and recites with him. He then recites, "And a redeemer shall come unto Zion, etc. And as for me, this is my covenant, etc. But Thou art holy, etc. And one cried unto another, Holy, etc." He completes the Kedushah. The congregants respond, "Holy, holy, holy" three times. He then reads the Kedushah in the Aramaic version. Then he recites the text, "Then a wind lifted me up, etc." He reads this also again in the Aramaic version. Then he recites, "The Lord shall reign for ever and ever." This he also repeats in Aramaic, so that the people may understand.
