Question
"Adonai, s'fatai tiftach ufi yagid t'hilatecha" Opening line of the Amidah Is this line supposed to be recited every time we say the Amidah? Is it said at Shacharit, Musaf, Mincha, and Maariv? Is it a personal line said quietly or does the Cantor say it aloud? Is it said during the repetition of the Amidah? It seems that in my congregation it is only recited out loud periodically and with a special niggun. Thanks.

Question
How should one read Psalm 82:1? How does the grammar works in this case? 1. Is it that G-d will judge the elohim from the midst of the assembly of G-d? 2. Or is it that G-d takes a stand in the assembly, and there, from the midst of the elohim, He judges 3. Or is it that He will judge with the elohim?   So: Does G-d judge against, among or with the elohim (judges).
