Sukkah 54a Part 4/5

AI summary (may contain mistakes)

Why does the Mishnah give Erev Shabbos in Succos as its case of 48 tekios, and not Rosh Hashanah on Shabbos? The Gemara answers tana v'shayar, and since a Tana never leaves out only one case, it looks for the second omission. Erev Pesach alone fails according to Rabbi Yehuda. So the Gemara settles on Erev Pesach falling on Erev Shabbos, where six tekios come out and six go in.

Key points

• Rosh Hashanah on Shabbos has three musafim, so 21 daily plus 27 makes 48 tekios.
• By the Gemara's rule, a Tana who leaves out a case always leaves out at least two.
• Rabbi Yehuda holds the small third group never reached Ahavti, so Erev Pesach falls short of 48.
• Perhaps our Tana follows Rabbi Yehuda on Ahavti but counts tekia, teruah, tekia as three, the Gemara suggests.
• Rebbe left things out of the Mishnah so it would still be learned from a rebbe.
