What is the name of the ancient Jewish liturgical prayer?
Which one? There are lots of them. The Amidah (the standing prayer) is the central prayer of every Jewish service. It is clearly ancient. The various Kaddishes that punctuate organized Jewish worship, serving as doxologies, are ancient. The Shema (Hear oh Israel ...) is even more ancient, as is the Baruch Shem Kavod (Praise the Holy Name) response to the Shema. Another candidate is the Priestly Benediction (May the Lord bless you and keep you ...).
Why is the amidah called the 18th prayer when it really is the 19th prayer?
The Amidah has 19 prayers today but back in the day, it had 18 prayers and the name just stuck with it and didn't change even though a 19th prayer was added.
