Sukkah 49b Part 1/4

AI summary (may contain mistakes)

Why were the shitin plugged when wine was poured on the Mizbeach? The Gemara reads shechar as drinking, satiation and drunkenness, so the backed-up wine showed the Mizbeach filled. Rava's drasha on the footsteps of Klal Yisrael going up for the regel follows. Divrei Torah are hidden like a thigh, and the Arizal finds chasurei mechsera in the word chamukei, so Mishnah still needs a Rebbe.

Key points

• Satiation from drinking is felt in the throat, not the stomach, so large gulps fill.
• Rava took large gulps from the kos shel bracha to show he was satiated.
• Rava reads bas nadiv as the daughter of Avraham Avinu, who is called a nadiv.
• A commentary links aliyah l'regel to Avraham Avinu, first to bring a karban, at the Akeidah.
• One sefer explains Avraham gave conversion, Yitzchak being born Jewish, Yaakov the inability to leave.
