<p style="text-indent: 2em">The Maamar Mordechai 52:4, however, rejects the Pri Chadash on the grounds that Elokai Nishama is unrelated to Mechayeh HaMeytim. Elokai Nishama is a praise for Hashem returning one’s soul rejuvenated each day, while Mechayeh HaMeytim is an affirmation of the fact that in the future Hashem will bring the dead back to life. Nonetheless, in order to avoid any question one should make sure to say it before Shemona Esrei even if one is late.<ref>Many poskim side with the Pri Chadash including the Chaye Adam 8:8, Kitzur S”A 7:6, Derech HaChaim 33:2, Kaf HaChaim 52:5, and Yabia Omer O.C. 4:7:5. Most interestingly, even though the Maamar Mordechai writes that there’s no doubt in his mind that the Pri Chadash is incorrect, he concludes that once was unable to say Elokai Neshama before Shemona Esrei and he decided to follow the Pri Chadash.</ref> After the fact, if one didn’t say it before [[davening]], there is what to rely upon to say it afterwards, but many poskim side with the Pri Chadash, who holds that one should not say it.<ref> | <p style="text-indent: 2em">The Maamar Mordechai 52:4, however, rejects the Pri Chadash on the grounds that Elokai Nishama is unrelated to Mechayeh HaMeytim.
