I’m looking for peirushim on the Kaddish said at a levaya and at a siyum. I’m particularly looking for peirushim on it in the context of a siyum, and maybe for one that deals with why this Kaddish is said at a siyum and a levaya.
I have a pshat I want to say, but I would very much like to see if there are any meforshim that talk about this Kaddish.
If anyone knows anywhere I can look, please let me know
There is an Atrtscroll Sepher in English on topic of Kaddish which you can procure.
This elongated Kaddish which you are inquiring about is said at funeral & Siyum, both representing the conclusion of a chapter of life, be it someone who just passed away, or the life of a specific tractate. Hence the 1st part of Kaddish being the same for these 2 occasions, albeit on no Tachnun days such as today Yom ha’Atzma’ut this elongated Kaddish is relegated to a regular Kaddish, whereas by a Siyum this elongated version is still recited.
