HALLEL
On the following days (outside of Eretz Yisrael), Complete Hallel is recited: the first two days and nights of Pesach, the two days of Shavuot, the nine days of Sukkot (including Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah), and the eight days of Chanukah. On Rosh Chodesh and the last six days of Pesach, Half Hallel is recited (as indicated).
The chazzan recites the following blessing. When reciting Complete Hallel, the congregation responds אָמֵן as indicated and repeats the blessing. When reciting Half Hallel, only the chazzan recites the blessing,1 bearing in mind that he is reciting the blessing on behalf of the congregation. The congregation responds Amen as indicated, bearing in mind that the chazzan is reciting the blessing on their behalf.
Uttering any word—other than prayer—is prohibited from this point until after the concluding blessing of Hallel on page 311. (Regarding prayer responses, see chart inside back cover.)
On Sukkot, hold the lulav in the right hand during Hallel. The etrog should be held only when waving the lulav. On Hoshana Rabbah, the two rings on the upper section of the lulav are removed before reciting Hallel.
Stand while reciting Hallel.
