וְלֵית הִלְכְתָא כְּווֹתֵיהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
However, the Gemara states: **And** the ***halakha*** is **not in accordance with** that opinion. Instead, the *halakha* is in accordance with the opinion of Shmuel.

[Pesachim 104b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/104b:2)

עוּלָּא אִיקְּלַע לְפוּמְבְּדִיתָא, אֲמַר לֵיהּ רַב יְהוּדָה לְרַב יִצְחָק בְּרֵיהּ: זִיל אַמְטִי לֵיהּ כַּלְכַּלָּה דְפֵירֵי, וַחֲזִי הֵיכִי אַבְדֵּיל. לָא אֲזַל, שַׁדַּר לֵיהּ לְאַבָּיֵי. כִּי אֲתָא אַבָּיֵי, אֲמַר לֵיהּ: הֵיכִי אָמַר? אֲמַר לֵיהּ: ״בָּרוּךְ הַמַּבְדִּיל בֵּין קוֹדֶשׁ לְחוֹל״ אָמַר, וְתוּ לָא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara relates: **Ulla happened** to come **to Pumbedita. Rav Yehuda said to his son, Rav Yitzḥak: Go** and **bring him a basket of fruit** as a gift, **and** while you are there, **observe how he recites *havdala*.** Rav Yitzḥak himself **did not go.** In his place, **he sent to him Abaye,** who was a young student at the time. **When Abaye came** back, Rav Yitzḥak **said to him: How did** Ulla **recite** the blessing of *havdala*? Abaye **said to him** that Ulla **said: Blessed is He Who distinguishes between sacred and profane, but** he did **not** say anything **further.**


###### Pesachim 104b:3
[Pesachim 104b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/104b:3)

אֲתָא לְקַמֵּיהּ דַּאֲבוּהּ, אֲמַר לֵיהּ: הֵיכִי אָמַר? אֲמַר לֵיהּ: אֲנָא לָא אֲזַלִי, אֲנָא שַׁדְּרִיתֵיהּ לְאַבָּיֵי, וַאֲמַר לִי ״הַמַּבְדִּיל בֵּין קוֹדֶשׁ לְחוֹל״. אֲמַר לֵיהּ: רַבְרְבָנוּתֵיהּ דְּמָר, וּסְרָרוּתֵיהּ דְּמָר, גְּרַמָא לֵיהּ לְמָר דְּלָא תֵּימָא שְׁמַעְתֵּיהּ מִפּוּמֵּיהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Rav Yitzḥak **came before his father,** Rav Yehuda, who **said to him: How did** Ulla **recite** *havdala*? **He said to him: I** myself **did not go.** Instead, **I sent Abaye, who said to me** that Ulla recited: **Who distinguishes between sacred and profane.** Rav Yehuda grew angry and **said to him: The Master’s haughtiness and the Master’s pride caused the Master** to act in a way that ensured **that** the ***halakha* will not be said in his name.** In other words, had you gone yourself, this *halakha* would have been attributed to you, but due to your haughtiness and pride, it will be transmitted in the name of Abaye.


###### Pesachim 104b:4
[Pesachim 104b:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/104b:4)

מֵיתִיבִי: כׇּל הַבְּרָכוֹת כּוּלָּן פּוֹתֵחַ בְּבָרוּךְ וְחוֹתֵם בָּהֶן בְּבָרוּךְ, חוּץ מִבִּרְכַּת מִצְוֹת וּבִרְכַּת הַפֵּירוֹת וּבְרָכָה הַסְּמוּכָה לַחֲבֶירְתָּהּ וּבְרָכָה אַחֲרוֹנָה שֶׁבִּקְרִיַּת שְׁמַע,

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara **raises an objection** to Ulla’s practice from a *baraita*: With regard to **all blessings,** one **begins** their recitation **with: Blessed, and concludes** reciting **them with: Blessed, except for blessings over mitzvot, blessings over fruit, a blessing that is juxtaposed to another** blessing in the order of prayer, e.g., during the *Amida* prayer, **and the final blessing after *Shema*.**


###### Pesachim 104b:5
[Pesachim 104b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Pesachim/r/104b:5)

שֶׁיֵּשׁ מֵהֶן פּוֹתֵחַ (בָּהֶן) בְּבָרוּךְ וְאֵין חוֹתֵם בְּבָרוּךְ, וְיֵשׁ מֵהֶן שֶׁחוֹתֵם בְּבָרוּךְ וְאֵין פּוֹתֵחַ בְּבָרוּךְ. וְ״הַטּוֹב וְהַמֵּטִיב״ פּוֹתֵחַ בְּבָרוּךְ וְאֵינוֹ חוֹתֵם בְּבָרוּךְ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The *baraita* elaborates: These blessings are different, **as some of them begin with: Blessed, and do not conclude with: Blessed,** e.g., blessings over mitzvot and before eating, **and some of them conclude with: Blessed, and do not begin with: Blessed,** such as a blessing that is juxtaposed to another blessing. **And** the blessing: **He Who is good and does good,** is exceptional, as it is a blessing that is juxtaposed to another blessing, and yet it **begins with: Blessed, and does not conclude with: Blessed.**
