Magsalita ka sa mga anak ni Israel, na nagsasabi: Sa ikapitong buwan, sa unang araw ng buwan, ay magkakaroon kayo ng isang araw ng ganap na pamamahinga, isang pag-alaala sa pamamagitan ng pagpapatunog ng hudyat, isang banal na pagtitipon.

HALAKHAH: From where years158That the Pentateuch counts years from the Fall equinox.? One verse says159Ex. 23:16., the festival of gathering at the end of the year, and another verse says160Ex. 34.22., the festival of gathering at the turn of the year. Which month contains a festival, and a turning point, and the year starts from it? Which one is this? It is Tishre. If you would say Ṭevet, there is a turning point161The winter solstice. but neither festival nor gathering. If you would say Nisan, there is a turning point162The spring equinox. and a festival, but no gathering. If you would say Tamuz, there is a turning163The summer solstice. point and gathering but no festival. So which one is this? It is Tishre. The colleagues said before Rebbi Jonah: should it not be Tamuz? He told them, it is written, in the seventh month164Num. 28:24., and your are saying so? They said to him, should it not be Tamuz165Maybe the month of the fall equinox should be called “Tamuz”.? He said to them, from here on you are quarrelling with me about names of months? As Rebbi Ḥanina said, the names of the months ascended with them from Babylonia. Originally, in the month of Ethanim1661K. 8:2., in which the Patriarchs were born, and the Patriarchs died, and the Mothers were remembered167One cannot say that Sarah and Rebecca became pregnant in Tishre, this would contradict the statement that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were born in Tishre. So one has to say that in that month the Divine decree was passed that the mothers should become pregnant. The language is taken from Gen. 21:1. Babli Berakhot29a.. Originally, in the month of Bul1681K. 6:37., where the leaves are falling, and the earth is made into lumps; where one mixes for domestic animals in the house169Because in November there is little food to be found in the fields.. Originally, in the month of Ziw1701K. 6:2, misquoted., which is the splendor of the world, when plants are recognized and trees recognized171In Nisan the growth on newly sown fields is recognizable and fruit trees are blossoming.. From then onwards172After the Babylonian exile., it was in the month of Nisan of year twenty173Neh. 2:1.; it was in the month of Kislew of year twenty174Neh. 1:1.; in the tenth month, this is the month of Ṭevet175Esth.2:16.. Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish said, also the names of angels were in their hands from Babylonia. Originally, there flew to me one of the Seraphim176Is. 6:6.; Seraphim standing over Him177Is. 6:2.. From then on, but the man Gabriel178Dan. 9:21.; but your lord Michael179Dan. 10:21..

HALAKHAH: I am the Eternal, your God, these are Malkhiot. Remembrance of trumpet sounds, these are Zikhronot. The shofar of trumpet sound, these are Shofarot. So far New Year’s Day62On the Day of Atonement of the Jubilee year also the musaf prayer is supposed to consist of 9 benedictions and after each of the three middle ones one blows the shofar (Mishnah 4:6–7).. “The Jubilee? You shall convey the shofar of sounds in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month, on the Day of Atonement. The verse did not have to say, in the seventh month. Why did the verse say, in the seventh month? Only that everything you are doing on New Year’s Day do on the Tenth of the Month. Since here there are Malkhiot, Zikhronot, and Shofarot, also there are Malkhiot, Zikhronot, and Shofarot.63Sifra Behar Parashah2(3), even though there the rules for the Day of Atonement of the Jubilee are taken for granted and those for New Year’s Day are derived. The argument is that the determination of the date in Lev. 25:9 is unnecessarily complicated since everybody knows that the day of Atonement is the 10th of the 7th month. Therefore it is implied that the 7th month only is mentioned to indicate that the rules for all shofar blowings in the 7th month must be equal.”

HALAKHAH: “On Pentecost, seven weeks.” There are Tannaim who state, in the third month117Ex. Chapters 19–20. While Pharisaic and Sadducee traditions differ about the date of Pentecost, both are in agreement that the holiday celebrates the anniversary of the theophany of Sinai and the giving of the Ten Commandments, the theme of these Chapters. Tosephta 3:5. “And on New Year’s Day, and in the Seventh month118In this version the reading is Num. 29:1–5..” There are Tannaim who state, and the Eternal counted Sarah119Gen. Chapter 21. The reading is appropriate because v. 21:17 states that a person is judged only by his state at the moment of judgment; if he is repentant then his prior misdeeds are disregarded; a proper reading for the Day of Judgment. Tosephta 3:6 For the Babylonian rite, Babli 31a.. “On the Day of Atonement, after the death. On the first day of Tabernacles one reads the section about holidays in Leviticus; on the remaining days about the sacrifices of the holiday.” Rebbi Jacob bar Aḥa in the name of Rebbi Yasa, to teach you that the world only exists by the sacrifices.
