55b to 56a · The Mishmaros Share Equally on the Regalim

AI summary (may contain mistakes)

Why were all 24 mishmaros equal three times a year? The Mishnah gives them an equal share in the korbanos of the regalim and in the lechem hapanim, while the mishmar of that week keeps its weekday korbanos. The Gemara learns the shared avodah from the pasuk of the Levi who comes with the desire of his soul, read as the time all Yisrael come to one city. Rashi notes that in 24 places Levi means Kohen.

Key points

  • The Mishnah's equal share in emurei regalim really means every Kohen gets the chance to bring the korban.
  • On Shavuos falling on Shabbos, each Kohen got both chametz shtei halechem and matzah lechem hapanim.
  • In the Mishnah, the mishmar of that week still brings the temidim, nedarim and nedavos.
  • The Gemara reads the pasuk's one of your gates as all Yisrael coming through one gate, on the regalim.
  • The Gemara refers the pasuk of eating portion like portion to the lechem hapanim, food divided without any avodah.
