Live right
You are right one only raises him or herself by kaddosh and not at the end of shemoneh esrei.
Thank Hashem for English translations of the Chumash otherwise some people would never know what really happened to Dina, or how Avimelech knew that yitzchak and rivka were married or the whole story of Yehuda and Tamar. Its ridiculous how the Torah could say it but the Rabbeim may not translate and tell us simple stories in Chumash. They wasted great opportunities of teaching us about these matters in a Kosher way as opposed to how most kids learn about these things.
