Sukkah 55b Part 9/9

AI summary (may contain mistakes)

How are the loaves of the lechem hapanim divided between the mishmaros when Yom Tov falls next to Shabbos, and on an ordinary Shabbos? The Mishnah gives the stuck mishmar a share, and Rabbi Yehuda gives the incoming mishmar seven loaves to the outgoing one's five. The Gemara explains the extra two as payment for closing the doors. The Gemara also answers why the mishmaros do not simply waive the extra loaves for each other every week.

Key points

• When one day falls in between, the Mishnah gives the mishmar of the week ten loaves, the other two.
• Bilga, in the Mishnah, has three penalties: the south side, a sealed ring and a sealed window.
• The Gemara reads before Shabbos as Yom Tov ending Friday, and after as beginning Sunday.
• The Gemara explains Rabbi Yehuda's two extra loaves as pay to the incoming mishmar for closing the doors.
• The Gemara's saying baitzina tava mikara means a small gourd now beats a big one later.
