## Rosh Hashanah Daf 5a

###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:1
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:1)

מָה חַג הַמַּצּוֹת טָעוּן לִינָה — אַף חַג הַסּוּכּוֹת טָעוּן לִינָה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Just as the festival of Passover requires remaining** overnight in Jerusalem, and only on the following day may one return home, **so too, the festival of *Sukkot* requires remaining overnight** in Jerusalem before returning home.


###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:2
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:2)

וְהָתָם מְנָלַן? דִּכְתִיב: ״וּפָנִיתָ בַבֹּקֶר וְהָלַכְתָּ לְאֹהָלֶיךָ״.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: **And there,** with regard to Passover, **from where do we** derive this *halakha*? The Gemara explains: **As it is written** about the Paschal offering: “And you shall roast and eat it in the place which the Lord your God shall choose; **and you shall turn in the morning, and go to your tents”** (Deuteronomy 16:7).


###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:3
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:3)

וְתַנָּא קַמָּא וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן (בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר) — תַּשְׁלוּמִין לַעֲצֶרֶת מְנָא לְהוּ?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: **And the first *tanna*** of the *baraita* **and Rabbi Shimon,** who learn from the verse: “On the festival of Passover, and on the festival of *Shavuot*, and on the festival of *Sukkot*” (Deuteronomy 16:16), that one transgresses the prohibition against delaying only after three Festivals have passed, **from where do they** derive the *halakha* that **the *Shavuot*** offering **has redress** for seven days?


###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:4
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:4)

נָפְקָא לְהוּ מִדְּתָנֵי רַבָּה בַּר שְׁמוּאֵל. דְּתָנֵי רַבָּה בַּר שְׁמוּאֵל: אָמְרָה תּוֹרָה מְנֵה יָמִים וְקַדֵּשׁ חֹדֶשׁ, מְנֵה יָמִים וְקַדֵּשׁ עֲצֶרֶת. מָה חֹדֶשׁ לִמְנוּיָו — אַף עֲצֶרֶת לִמְנוּיָו.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara answers: **They derive it from** that **which Rabba bar Shmuel taught, as Rabba bar Shmuel taught: The Torah states to count** the **days,** as it is stated: “A month of days” (Numbers 11:20), **and** then **sanctify** a new **month** with offerings. **And** the Torah also said to **count** the **days** from Passover, as it is stated: “You shall count fifty days” (Leviticus 23:16), **and** then **sanctify** the festival of ***Shavuot*** with offerings. **Just as the** new **month is** sanctified **for** the unit of time **by which it is counted,** i.e., for one day, **so too, *Shavuot* is** sanctified **for** the unit of time **by which it is counted,** i.e., for one full week, as it is stated: “Seven complete weeks shall there be” (Leviticus 23:15).


###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:5
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:5)

אֵימָא עֲצֶרֶת חַד יוֹמָא? אָמַר רָבָא: אַטּוּ עֲצֶרֶת יוֹמֵי מָנִינַן, שָׁבוּעֵי לָא מָנִינַן? וְהָאָמַר מָר: מִצְוָה לְמִימְנֵי יוֹמֵי, וּמִצְוָה לְמִימְנֵי שָׁבוּעֵי. וְעוֹד: ״חַג שָׁבוּעוֹת״ כְּתִיב.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: But if so, **say** that the ***Shavuot*** offering may be redressed for only **one day,** as *Shavuot* is determined by a count of fifty days from Passover. How, then, is it known that the *Shavuot* offering has seven days for redress? **Rava said: Is that to say** that **we count** only **days until *Shavuot*,** but **we do not** also **count weeks? But didn’t the Master say:** It is **a mitzva to count** fifty **days, and** it is also **a mitzva to count** seven **weeks,** which teaches that the Festival peace-offering brought on ***Shavuot*** may be sacrificed for an entire week. **And further, it is written** in the verse: **“The festival of weeks [*Shavuot*],”** which teaches that it is a Festival that is established through a count of weeks.


###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:6
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:6)

וּפֶסַח בַּר מִיקְרַב בִּרְגָלִים הוּא? פֶּסַח זִימְנָא קְבִיעָא לֵיהּ, אִי אַקְרְבֵיהּ — אַקְרְבֵיהּ, וְאִי לָא אַקְרְבֵיהּ — אִידְּחִי לֵיהּ!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ It was taught in the *baraita* that one becomes liable for transgressing the prohibition against delaying if he delays bringing the Paschal lamb. The Gemara expresses its astonishment about this ruling: **But is the Paschal lamb fit to be sacrificed on the** other **Festivals? The Paschal lamb has a fixed time** to be brought, on the fourteenth of Nisan; **if one sacrificed it** then, **he has sacrificed it, but if he did not sacrifice it** then, **it is excluded** forever from any use.


###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:7
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:7)

אָמַר רַב חִסְדָּא: פֶּסַח כְּדִי נַסְבֵהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Ḥisda said: The Paschal lamb is cited** here **for no reason [*kedi*];** that is to say, the prohibition against delaying is not relevant to the Paschal lamb, and the latter was mentioned in the *baraita* only because firstborn offerings, animal tithes, and the Paschal lamb are often grouped together.


###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:8
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:8)

רַב שֵׁשֶׁת אָמַר: מַאי ״פֶּסַח״ — שַׁלְמֵי פֶסַח.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Sheshet said** a different explanation: **What is** meant here by **a Paschal lamb?** It is **the peace-offering** that is brought **in place of a Paschal lamb.** If a lamb that had been set aside to be sacrificed as a Paschal offering was lost, and its owner took another lamb and sacrificed that as his Paschal lamb, and afterward the first animal was found, it must now be brought as a peace-offering. This offering is subject to all the *halakhot* of the prohibition against delaying.


###### Rosh Hashanah 5a:9
[Rosh Hashanah 5a:9](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Rosh%20Hashanah/r/5a:9)

אִי הָכִי — הַיְינוּ שְׁלָמִים! תְּנָא שְׁלָמִים הַבָּאִין מֵחֲמַת פֶּסַח, וּתְנָא שְׁלָמִים הַבָּאִין מֵחֲמַת עַצְמָן. סָלְקָא דַּעְתָּךְ אָמֵינָא: הוֹאִיל וּמֵחֲמַת פֶּסַח קָאָתוּ,

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara asks: **If so, this is** the same as the **peace-offerings** listed earlier, and it is still redundant. The Gemara answers: The *baraita* **taught** the *halakha* with regard to **peace-offerings brought in place of a Paschal lamb, and it** also **taught** the *halakha* with regard to **peace-offerings brought independently.** The reason for this repetition is that **it might enter your mind to say: Since** the peace-offerings **are brought in place of a Paschal lamb,**
