Study Guide Sukkah 55 Today’s daf is sponsored by David Tannor in honor of his wife, Naomi Shamah Esses. “I am so proud of you for having started and staying with daf yomi. B”H may we merit to share many more anniversaries together, ever increasing our study of Torah and basking in its light.” And for the yahrzeit of Yisrael Meir ben Aryeh Zev ha-Kohen, Rabbi Yisrael Meir ha-Kohen Kagan Chofetz Chaim which will be tomorrow.The gemara raises three questions against Rabbi Acha Bar Hanina’s position, that when there are several additional sacrifices, nine blasts are blown for each one. One is resolved, however the others remain difficult. But if Rabbi Acha relied on a verse and a braita, then how can one say that his opinion is difficult? The braita must be understood in a different manner. What do you say in the prayer abroad on the intermediary days of the holiday as it is unclear which day it actually is? Three opinions are presented in the Gemara - either skipping the second day or the seventh day or saying two every day. How was the sacrificial work on Sukkot divided into shifts by the mishmarot kehuna, the priestly groups? Every day the division was different because the number of bull offerings dropped every day by one. Rebbi and the rabbis disagree about the lottery for the bull on Shemini Atzeret - is it clear that the mishna holds by Rebbi or can it also be explained according to the rabbis? The seventy bulls sacrificed on the Sukkot are representative of the seventy nations and the one bull on Shmini Atzeret is representative of the Jewish people - and the Gemara brings a parable foo this idea. What priestly gifts were distributed to each shift on holidays and which gifts were intended only for that week’s shift? Where is this learned from?
