(4a) [line 3] MALCHUYOS - the blessing which contains Pesukim that refer to
HaSh-m as the King in the Musaf Shemoneh Esreh on Rosh Hashanah
(4b) KEDUSHAS HA'YOM - the blessing which talks about the sanctity of the
day. We include this Berachah as part of the Berachah of Malchuyos.
(5) ZICHRONOS - the blessing which contains Pesukin that affirm that Hashem
remembers all actions, in which we relate how, in the past, HaSh-m
remembered our deeds and protected us and in which we beseech HaSh-m to

the people
3) [line 9] RACHMANA AMAR IDKAR - the Torah said to mention it
4) [line 10] ISHTENI - since it has been made different (from Zichronos and
Shofaros, since you say not to blow the Shofar in this blessing), you should
say that it has also been made different to say only nine Pesukim
5) [line 11] BENEI ELIM - sons of the powerful (the Patriarchs who were
powerful in their faith); alt. sons of rams (the Patriarchs allowed
themeselves to be slaughtered like animals for HaSh-m's sake, particularly
Yitzchak who was prepared to allow himself to be sacrificed by Avraham
(MIDRASH SHOCHER TOV); according to the Midrash (Bereishis Rabah 56:10) this
could be read as Ilmim (mute), because the Patriarchs remained silent and
uncomplaining when they were tested by Hashem

(i.e. He will storm) the south [of Eretz Yisrael - according to some
opinions this refers to the ancient Greeks and according to others it refers
to the future, to the remnant of the Roman Empire]
17) [line 12] "ZACHRENI HASH-M BI'RTZON AMECHA [PAKDENI B'YSHU'ASECHA]" -
"Remember me, HaSh-m, when You show Your nation favor; [recall me with Your
salvation]" (Tehilim 106:4)
18) [line 12] PIKDONOS HEREI HEN K'ZICHRONOS - Pesukim in which remembrances

22) [line 37] HA'SHENI MASKI'A - the second Chazan tells the one who blows
the Shofar to blow

Shevus refers to actions that the Rabanan prohibited on Shabbos. The Torah
states "uva'Yom ha'Shevi'i Tishbos" ("and you shall rest on the seventh
day") (Shemos 23:12). The Rabanan learn that this applies even to things
that are not Melachos, and as a result they prohibited actions that were
permitted mid'Oraisa (see Shabbos 114b).
