Description

Study Guide Chagigah 7 Today’s daf is sponsored by the Hadran Zoom family in loving memory of Malcolm Minsk, father of their dear friend, Elisa Hartstein. “In the virtual Hadran Zoom room, you brought your father to life for us as you shared the beautiful story of his tireless activity on behalf of the Jewish community in Atlanta, and all with a charming Southern accent. His memory should be a comfort to you." Today’s daf is sponsored by Rachel Lopatin in honor of Shayna Lopatin. “With lots of love, Eema and Abba.” Today's daf is sponsored by the Levi family for a refuah shleima for Miriam bat Chana. There are five things that have no requisite amount: peah, bikkurim, “appearing” at the temple, acts of loving-kindness, and Torah study. It is unclear from this Mishna if there is a maximum amount but there is a minimum and if there is no requisite amount for  “appearance” means simply showing up at the Temple (particularly after the first day of the holiday) or if it means offering a sacrifice at the time of each “appearance.”  Reish Lakish, who at first believes you have to offer a sacrifice each time your return to the Temple throughout the holiday challenges Rabbi Yochanan (who believes that showing up is enough) with three sources that seem to indicate that you need to offer a sacrifice. Rabbi Yochanan suggests that each of these sources relates to the first day of the holiday only. After Rabbi Yochanan raises a question against Reish Lakish, the Gemara reformulates its understanding of the debate between them: All agree that one can come to the Temple as many times as one wishes throughout the holiday, even without bringing a sacrifice. The debate is whether or not one is allowed to bring as many sacrifices (olot reiya - burnt offerings of appearance) as one wants or is one only able to bring one. Rabbi Yochanan raises a difficulty against Reish Lakish according to this understanding but it is resolved. The Gemara concludes by attempting to define what the braita meant by “the people cannot appear partially.” Some sacrifices (olot, burnt offerings) on the holidays must be purchased with unconsecrated money, while others (like shelamim, peace offerings) can be acquired with maaser sheni money. In an attempt to understand the nuances of which sacrifices can be brought on festivals, and which have to be purchased with unconsecrated money, the Gemara rereads (add words to) the Mishna, to make it comprehensible. The Mishna brings a debate between Beit Shamai and Beit Hillel regarding the sacrifice on the first day of Pesach - why is that day unique?
