After which phrase in Yishtabach should one respond 'Amen'?
Synopsis
The blessing of Yishtabach has an extended conclusion. The debate is whether 'Amen' is answered after the phrase 'melekh mehulal batishbahot' (or 'El melekh gadol batishbahot' in Ashkenazic nusach) or only after the true ending of the blessing, 'chai ha'olamim'.
