Yishtabach ((ヘブライ語:ישתבח)) (Hebrew: "(God ) be praised") is a prayer in the final portion of the Pesukei Dezimra morning prayers of Judaism known as shacharit, recited before the second kaddish leading to the Shema prayers. The theme of the number "fifteen" plays a pivotal role in the blessing; there are fifteen expressions conveying praise in the beginning half of the paragraph and fifteen words in the concluding blessing (after "Blessed are You, God..."). The number fifteen is an allusion both to the Divine Name יה (whose gematria is fifteen) and to the fifteen Songs of Ascents composed by King David (Psalms 120–34). There are two themes of Yishtabach: God's power and might are deserving of our praise and adoration, and that one must continually praise God.〔Every person's guide to Jewish prayer By Ronald H. Isaacs, page 117〕 Since Baruch Sheamar and Yishtabach are both blessings, this gives the sense that Pesukei Dezimra is one single prayer.〔Talelei oros By Yiśakhar Dov ben Shaʼul Rubin, Gershon Robinson, page 458〕 Yishtabach is not recited unless Baruch Sheamar is recited, because Baruch Sheamar is the opening blessing, and Yishtabach is the closing blessing.〔To pray as a Jew: a guide to the prayer book and the synagogue service By Hayim Halevy Donin, page 171〕 Yishtabach is normally recited while standing. This is because Baruch Sheamar is recited while standing, and since Baruch Sheamar is the opening of Pesukei Dezimra and Yishtabach is the conclusion, they are both recited in the same manner.〔How does Jewish law work?: a rabbi analyzes 95 contemporary halachic questions By J.

Simcha Cohen, page 162〕 The author of Yishtabach is not known to this day. But with words 2-5 in the prayer spelling ''שׁלמה'' (''Shlomo''), this alludes to a reference to King Solomon.〔The JPS guide to Jewish traditions By Ronald L.
