Question: What is meant by schach that is placed correctly? Rav Chisda: It means that the schach was placed there as a covering, for shade. If it was placed there to dry in the sun, the sukkah would not be kosher. Question: What is the beraisa’s intention with the extra words “any kind of sukkah ”? Response: Any kind includes another four sukkos, alluded to by the acronym Rakbash, as taught in a Beraisa: The sukkah of shepherds, reapers, guards, or watchmen ( Rakbash is an acronym for these four sukkos); any kind of sukkah is kosher as long as its schach was placed correctly. Question: What is meant by schach that is placed correctly? Rav Chisda: It means that the schach was placed there as a covering, for shade. If it was placed there to dry in the sun, the sukkah would not be kosher. Question: What is the beraisa’s intention with the extra words “any kind of sukkah ”? Response: Any kind includes another four sukkos, alluded to by the acronym Ganbach, as taught in the first Beraisa. The first beraisa intimates that ganbach is certainly kosher while rakbash is a chiddush, because ganbach are sturdier booths. The second beraisa intimates that rakbash is certainly kosher while ganbach is a chiddush, because rakbash was built by males who are obligated in sukkah. Mishna: An old sukkah is possul according to Beis Shammai and kosher¤ according to Beis Hillel. An old sukkah means one that was made more than 30 days before yom tov. However if the sukkah was built specifically for sukkos it is always kosher. This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
