Lalu datanglah Amalek dan memerangi Israel di Rafidim.
Jerusalem Talmud Taanit
HALAKHAH: 141This Halakhah is repeated in Megillah 4:2. Rav Ḥuna said, three people reading in the Torah shall not do less than ten verses142Each one may not read less than three verses but one has to read at least 4. Babli Megillah21b.. Ḥizqiah said, corresponding to the Ten Commandments143Babli Megillah 21b, as one of two explanations.. But did we not state, “on Sunday, In the Beginning and there shall be a spread”? And these are only eight! Rebbi Idi said, Cahana and Assi disagreed144In Babli Megillah 22a, disagreement of Rav and Samuel.. One said, he repeats. But the other said, he splits. He who says that he repeats, he repeats two verses. He who says he splits, he splits it was evening, it was morning, as a separate verse145He splits it off from v. 5 and reads it as separate sentence. In contrast to the Babli which prescribes only one sentence to be repeated, the Yerushalmi has the three readers reading a total of 10 verses as required by Rav Ḥuna.. But did we not state, “on Monday, there shall be a spread and the waters shall come together”? One said, he repeats. But the other said, he splits. He who says that he repeats, he repeats two verses. He who says he splits, he could not split146Since “it was evening, it was morning, the third day” already is a separate verse.. Rebbi Philippos ben Perita objected before Rebbi Ze`ira, is there not the paragraph about Amalek? He said to him, there is a difference since this is the topic of the day147The reading for Purim, for which three readers are called on a weekday, is Ex.17:8–16. The reading is not connected to the text before or after, it cannot be augmented. Since there are 9 verses and the Mishnaic requirement can be satisfied without problems, there is no need to change anything to satisfy the additional Amoraic rule. Tosaphot Megillah 21b s.v. אין.. Rebbi Eleazar from Merom asked before Rebbi Jonah; was it not stated, the one who reads the conclusion from Prophets should not do less than 21 verses148Babli Megillah 23a. The question would be that since we require that one reader at least read 4 verses, should there not be at least 22 verses? The question needs no answer since there is no reading from Prophets on weekdays; the number 21 refers to the seven people called to read on a Sabbath; cf. Megillah 4:2 Note 74.?
Jerusalem Talmud Megillah
MISHNAH: On Ḥanukkah, about the princes121Num. 7:12–59 (-89), on each day of Ḥanukkah one reads the princes’ offerings for that day of the dedication of the Tabernacle.. On Purim, Amaleq came122Ex. 17:8–16.. On New Moons, on the start of your months123Num. 28:11–15.. For the bystanders, the Creation124On each day of the week one reads the corresponding day of Creation; Gen. 1:1–2:3.. On fast days, blessings and curses125Either Lev. 26:3–46 or Deut. Chapter 28.. One does not interrupt curses, but one person reads them entirely. On Monday, Thursday, and Sabbath afternoon one reads regularly but they may not count it in the series126One reads the start of the portion to be read on the next Sabbath; this has no influence on the text to be read on the Sabbath., as it is said127Lev. 23:44., Moses spoke to the Children of Israel about the holidays of the Eternal; the obligation is that each one be read in its time.
