Tafsiran yang Mengutip untuk Yehezkiel 45:18

לכסדרן – to the order of the Haftarot/prophetic portions, for until here, we recite Haftarot that are an abstract of/a reflection of the four [special] Torah portions: The portion of Shekalim – “At years of age” (II Kings 12:1); the portion of Zakhor: “…I am exacting the penalty for what Amalek did to Israel…”(I Samuel 15:2 – though many customs today have the community read the entire chapter); the portion of Parah: “And I will sprinkle upon you purifying waters” (Ezekiel 36:15); the portion of HaHodesh: “On the first day of the first month” (Ezekiel 45:18). From here and onwards, he returns to recite the prophetic portion that is a reflection of the [Torah] portion of that day.

ואת הבשר ואת העור, “and both the meat and the skin, etc;” Rashi explains here that there is no other occasion when the blood of the sin offering is burnt outside the Tabernacle, except in this instance and on the preceding seven days. (when Moses officiated.) If you were to question that we find that the blood of the second bull offered by the Levites in Numbers 8,8-15 was also offered before the Levites entered the Tabernacle, and that in the Book of Ezra chapter 8,35, we encounter something similar, a) these were consecration offerings prior to the second Temple beginning to function, and b) Ezekiel had already predicted in Ezekiel 45,18-20, that in the new Temple the ritual involving all these sin offerings would take place outside the doorposts of Temple itself. What Rashi meant when he commented on our verse refers to every place when the consecration rites of the Tabernacle in the desert had been discussed, as well as when the consecration rites in the days of Ezra were discussed and when the prophet prophesied about the consecration rites of the third Temple, hopefully in our own days. The answer given to the question raised above in the first chapter of the Talmud, tractate Horiyot, is that what was done in the days of Ezra was an emergency measure, one from which no conclusions may be drawn for normal times.

Since we normally blow trumpets every month [Numbers 10:10], this day is called a remembrance of sounding the horn . Elsewhere it is called “a day of sounding the horn” [Numbers 29:1], because on this day (as on Yom Kippur of the jubilee year [25:9]) there is a separate commandment to blow the ram’s horn. Attend carefully now, and perhaps you shall understand the mysteries which I now reveal. The Exegetes have said that Rosh HaShana is the Day of Judgment, and that the ram’s horn reminds us of God’s majesty. Although every new month is heralded by the blowing of trumpets, the month of Nisan is preeminent over them all. On the first of Nisan the Tabernacle was erected; so it will also be in the future, as Ezekiel says: “in the first month, on the first day of the month” [Ezekiel 45:18]. He also says, “and so shall you do on the seventh day of the month” [Ezekiel 45:20] and on that day the sun and the moon are at right angles to one another. The festival on the fifteenth of Nisan occurs when the sun and the moon are directly opposite one another. The seventh day of the festival occurs when the sun and moon are again at right angles to one another. Accordingly, Rosh HaShana is the most important day of the year. Although it is a Day of Judgment, one may not fast on it, as Ezra showed us [Nehemiah 8:10]. Yom Kippur comes next, when the Moon is in conjunction with Aquarius, and then comes Sukkot, which is just like Passover except it has eight days instead of seven. Thus the mystery of the festivals and the mystery of the Sabbath are now clarified [not quite — Translator].
