Rashi on I Kings
And seven [more] days. Of Succos.40The Rabbis in Maseches Mo’ed Katan 9a, deduce from the redundancy of this phrase [“seven days and seven more days”], that one is not permitted to combine one שמחה with another, e.g., one is not allowed to celebrate a wedding on Chol Hamoed. It is found that they ate and drank on Yom Kippur.41See Maseches Mo’ed Katan 9a and Rashi there.42They began to celebrate on the eighth of Tishrei and continued for the next fourteen days. Thus, the third day of the dedication was Yom Kippur, the tenth of Tishrei.
