Major Question:
See Chidushei Rebbe Akiva Eiger who asks; The melacha of carrying on Shabbos needs three components – Akira, Hotzoa Mreshus lreshus, and Hanacha. At the moment of the Akira the person had not yet performed the mitzvah of daled minim so that segment even if he fulfilled the mitzvah before carrying them out of the house the person should still be exempt from the korban as he was involved in the mitzvah at the time of the akira?
Learn the רש”ש דף מב (first half – until the brackets) who answers Rebbe Akiva Eiger question with a major chidush as to the minimum act required to fulfill the mitzvah of Daled Minim.
The Ritva & Rashba clearly established the case of our gemara is where the diagonal line from the wall of the Mavui to the Korah is three tefachim or more.
Is there a possible explanation as to why both concepts of חבוט and לבוד are needed to connect the Korah to the walls of the Mavui even when the diagonal is less than three?
Learn ח’ ר’ חיים ה’ סוכה פרק ה הלכה כא (attached in this email – starting from paragraph on bottom of right column)
Note how Reb Chaim explains
1) Why Chavut and Lavud is needed even though the diagnol line between the Korah and the walls of the Mavui is less then three?
2) A new answer to question of Tosfos as to why the Korah can not be higher then three tefachim as Chavut is not limited to within three tefachim.
3) Whether the shapes of the pegs holding up the Korah make a difference

The משנה ברורה ס”ק א quotes the פרי מגדים who says a person should also not hold items in his hand during krias shema and pesukei dzimra.
Perhaps this is a special halacha in shemoneh esreh. How does the pri megadim extrapolate this halacha to other parts of davening?
See תוספת דף לט “עובר (towards the end of Tosfos) who learns from our gemara that one can make a bracha on the Daled Minim as long as it was still in ones hands.
Additional maareh mekomos on Sugya: How much is one required to pay to perform a Mitzvah
Chakirah:
What’s the למדות why one doesn’t need to spend more than 20% of his assets to perform a מצות עשה?
A) Because he’s considered an אונס, or
B) Because one is not obligated in the mitzvah but not the Torah doesn’t obligate him to spend such a large percentage of his money.
See אגרות משה יורה דעה סימן קמה starting from paragraph “והנה”
The Gemara קידושין דף כט says that if person has only 5 coins he must use it for the mitzvah of pidyon haben. This Gemara seems to contradict the Gemara Bava Kama that there is a maximum a person had to spend in order to perform a Mitzvah?

The Gemara says we see from the fact that Raban Gamliel spent 1,000 zuz to purchase Daled Minim how beloved mitzvos were עליהן – to them – in plural form. If only Raban Gamliel purchased the Daled Minim how do we see the mitzvos were beloved for the other tanaaim?

Questions:
Why do we need both concepts of חבוט and לבוד to connect the Korah to the walls of the Mavui. Why can’t we consider the Korah connected through לבוד alone?
