Learn רש”י “ה”ג לגבי המזבח very well 

Question:

What was unique about the tenth step?

See “ערוך לנר דף נא: “הגיעו למעלה עשירית 

Clarify the two explanation Rashi presents to what שלש על גבי מזבח means

How does the Rambam explain על גבי מזבח?

Learn רמב״ם הלכות כלי המקדש פרק ז הלכה ה-ו 

Learn רמב״ם הלכות לולב פרק ז הלכה כא

Questions:

There seems to be a contradiction in the Rambam whether they sounded the shofar when they propped the aravah next to the mizbeich or when they did Nisuch Hamayim?

If they sounded the חצוצרות when they propped the aravah next to the mizbeich and when they did Nisuch Hamayim then seemingly there should be a total of 51 blasts and not 48?

Learn “ערוך לנר דף נד. “רש”י ה”ג לגבי המזבח 

Note: The Rambam says they sounded חצוצרות for the opening of the upper and lower gates on every רגל and not just on Sukkos. Rashi disagrees as Rashi says it was exclusive to Sukkos. 

Questions:

What is the source for the Rambam opinion? 

What is the source for the Simchas Beis Hashoava on Sukkos?

Sugya: Pausing כדי נשימה between שברים תרועה

Question:

Rebbe Yehuda and the Rabanan disagree whether we consider each set of tekios (tekia, Terra, tekia) as one or three. This seems to be just a technical argument: what halachic difference is there between Rabanan and Rebbe Yehuda?

See רש”י דף נג: “ולא כלום

Learn ריטב”א דף נד. “ואימא הכי נמי who learns a chidush in Hilchos Tekias shofar from our gemara in regards to pausing כדי נשימה between the three שברים and between שברים תרועה.

Note the disagreement between Rashi and the Ritva. 

Learn the “מאירי דף נג:-נד “יד למדים מסוגיא זו who argues on the Ritva. 

How do we conclude lhalacha in regards to pausing כדי נשימה between the three שברים and between שברים תרועה.

Learn שולחן ערוך או”ח ס’ תק”צ סעיף ד and the משנה ברורה

According to the opinion that one may pause כדי נשימה between שברים תרועה if the baal tokea blows them without a pause is the set still valid? 

See משנה ברורה ס”ק יז & כ

According to the opinion that there can be absolutely no break between שברים תרועה if the baal tokea pauses כדי נשימה is the set still valid? 

See משנה ברורה ס”ק יח and (הגהות חזון איש (או”ח ס’ קל”ו ס”ק א “ומה” who argues on the משנה ברורה

Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Gemara Shabbos: Starting Third Perek today יום שני Tu B’Av (08/19/24)

Mazel Tov on the siyum of the second Perek of Eruvin.  

We are starting the third perek of Gemara Shabbos today. 

The best method to learn the beginning of the third perek is to learn the first 2 1/2 blatt Gemara & Rashi in totality.  Afterwards to start from the beginning of the Perek and learn the gemara again with the Rishonim.  

There are 7 bochurim from Yeshiva Staten Island who are part of a Seed program in our Yeshiva.  They are available to learn with you in the morning. 

One of them will be giving my daily shiur at 12:15 learning through the Gemara with the chabura.
