Pirkei Avot 2:5. [4] – Leviticus 19:18 [5] – Second paragraph of Alaynu. Alaynu is attributed either to Joshua ben Nun (Scherman, Rabbi Nosson, et al. ArtScroll Transliterated Linear Siddur, Weekday. New York: Mesorah Heritage Foundation, 1998, page 256.) or Rav, a Babylonian rabbi of the third century C.E. Some scholars believe Alaynu was part of Second Temple rituals. Others say it was introduced later time into Rosh HaShanah liturgy. Alaynu appears to have become part of daily Jewish worship during the middle ages. (Siddur Sim Shalom for Weekdays.
