Sukkah 54: Calendar Combinations and the Mishnah's Responsibility
from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
More on the daily shofar blasts in the Temple: the case of Rosh Hashanah that falls out on Shabbat. This is not the case the mishnah uses, but why not? Shouldn't the mishnah be including all the possible cases? This daf suggests otherwise. Also, where Yom Kippur falls out in Erev Shabbat (yes, in the time of the Gemara, it could happen) - how did those shofar blasts work out? Plus, a discussion over how unanimous the p'sak here is (as in, unanimous or just R. Akiva). [We thought we'd conquered the audio issues, but there are 2 unexpected places of wonkiness. We're nearly there though, and we thank you for sticking with us.]
