The Gemara presents three answers as to why Aravos (Hoshanos) are only taken one day זכר למקדש even though in the Beis Hamikdash aravos were taken all seven days of Sukkos.
Questions:
In the first proposed answer does Rava believe that indeed there is a Mitzvah to take aravos all seven days of Sukkos זכר למקדש?
In the final answer of the Gemara why does the fact that there is no Mitzvah from the Torah to take aravos outside of the Beis Hamikdash affect the decision of instituting a mitzvah of Aravah all seven days זכר למקדש as was done in the Beis Hamikdash?

Question on halacha אין צריכין ליגע – side posts do not need to extend until the top crossbeam.
Why not?
See משנה ברורה שס”ב ס”ק סב which says the reason is because of גוד אסיק
Major Question:
In the Sugya of כיפה in the case of a doorframe which is an arched on top. The gemara says if the side posts are ten tefachim tall everyone agrees it’s considered a צורת הפתח. Rashi says this is a proof that the side posts do not need to extend to touch the top cross beam.
How could this be considered a צורת הפתח through גוד אסיק , there is solid material separating the top of the side posts and the cross beam?
See אבני נזר או”ח ס’ רס”ד which asks the rule of גוד אסיק is universal, why does רב ששת say צריכים ליגע?
Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Gemara Eruvin: First Perek, יום שלישי Tamuz 8, Daf 11b (06/27/23)
Conclusion of סוגיא צורת הפתח – כיפה – arch
Question:
Why is an arched door frame which starts to arch from the bottom of the side posts not obligated in mezuzah?
Is it only when lacking width of 4 tefachim with a minimum height of 3 tefachim or is it because a door frame needs to have straight side posts and a flat lintel?
Is a doorframe which is wider than four tefachim that begins to arch from bottom of the side posts considered a צורת הפתח ?
