Question
Hello Rabbi, A person praying with the chazzan during the repetition of the Amidah because he arrived late, got confused in Modim Anachnu Lach, and said the Modim of the repetition — and realized this while saying Modim — how should he continue?
Answer
Hello Rabbi
If he has not finished, he should return to the beginning of the blessing and say it properly.
If he has already completed the blessing correctly and said 'Baruch Ata Hashem HaTov Shimcha, etc.', he has fulfilled his obligation, as he has said the essence of the blessing properly.
