2 e 2 Eruvin: Rabbinic enactments concerning some Shabbos laws. Pesachim: Pas ssover Many laws governing the Korban Pesach the offering brought to the Holy Temple on the evee of Passover. The mitzvos concerning matzah and the prohibitions against chametz (leaven). Laws and traditions of the Seder night. משנה מסכת פסחים פרק י משנה ה אלו בפסח לא יצא ידי חובתו ואלו הן פסח מצה ומרור אמר שלשה דברים גמליאל היה אומר כל שלא [ה] רבן מרור על שום שנגאלו אבותינו במצרים בתי אבותינו במצרים מצה על שום פסח על שום שפסח המקום על חייב אדם לראות את עצמו כאילו הוא יצא ממצרים המצריים את חיי אבותינו במצרים בכל דור ודור שמררו לי בצאתי ממצרים לפיכך אנחנו חייבין זה עשה ה' ביום ההוא לאמר בעבור שנאמר ) (שמות יג) והגדת לבנך להדר לברך לעלה ולקלס למי שעשה לאבותינו ולנו את כל הניסים האלו להודות ללהלל לשבח לפאר לרומם מעבדות לחירות מיגון לשמחה ומאבל ליום טוב ומאפילה לאור גדול ומשעבוד לגאולה ונאמר לפניו הוציאנו הללויה: Rabban Gamliel would say one who has not said the following three things at the Pesach (seder) has not fulfilled his obligation. Pesach, Matzah, and Marror. Pesach, because the Omnipresent passed over (posach) our ancestorss homes in Egypt (during the plague of the firstborn). Matzah, becausee our ancestors were redeemed from Egypt. Maror (bitter herbs), because the Egyptians embittered our ancestors lives in Egypt. In every generation one must see himself as if he left Egypt as it says: And you shall tell your son on that day, it is because of this, because of what G d did for me when I left Egypt. Therefore we must thank, prais, laud, glorify, exalt, honor, bless, extol, acclaim He who has done for our ancestors and for us all of these miracles. He took us out of bondage to freedom, from distresss to joy, from mourning to a happy day, from darkness to a great light, and from slavery to redemption and let us say before Him Hallelukah (Praised be G d). Shekalim: Collection of the half Shekelas well as the expenses and expenditure of the Bais Hamikdash. משנה מסכת שקלים פרק ג בי"ת גימ"ל רבי ישמעאל אומר של שלש ששלש סאין תורמין את הלשכה וכתוב בהן אל"ף משנה ב: בשלש קופות ולא בתפילין ולא ולא במנעל ולא בסנדל בית"א גמל "א אין התורם נכנס לא בפרגוד חפות יונית כתוב בהן אלפ"א לפי שאדם צריך הלשכה העשיר יעשיר ויאמרו מתרומת שמא יעני ויאמרו מעון הלשכה העני או שמא בקמיע שנאמר (במדבר ל"ב) והייתם נקיים מה' ומישראל ואומר לצאת ידי המקום לצאת ידי הבריות כדרך שצריך ומצא חן ושכל טוב בעיני אלהים ואדם: (משלי ג')

3 e 3 With three baskets, each holding three se ah they would remove the Terumah from the (treasury) chamber. They were marked, Alef, Beis, Gimmel. R Yishmael says thery were marked in Greek: Alpha, Beta, Gamma. The one who withdrew the funds may not enter the chamber wearing a hemmed garment, shoes, sandals, tefillin, or amulets (in which he might conceal coins). Lest people say became poor that it was because he sinned and embezzled from the treasury. And lest people say if he became wealthy that his wealth came from Temple funds. Because one must be free of blame beforee society as before G d as it states (Numbers 32): and you shall be clean before G d and Israel. And (Proverbs 3) and you shall find favor and good understanding in the eyes of G d and Man. Yoma: Yom Kippur The special servicee of the Kohen Gadol (High Priest) in the Holy Temple.

Kings and brides may wash their faces and a new mother may wear shoes according to R Eliezer, the Sages forbid it. One who eats the volume of a large date, along with its pit or drinks (the amount that could fill) his cheeks is liable (for punishment) All foods combine to make up the volume of a date and all drinks combine for the volume of a cheekful, food and drink however, do not combine. Sukkah: The eight day holiday of Sukkos. Laws governing the Sukkah structure and the four species. פרק א משנה מסכת סוכה משנה א למעלה מעשרים אמה פפסולה רבי יהודה מכשיר ושאינה גבוהה עשרה טפחים ושאין לה [א] סוכה שהיא גבוהה בית שמאי פוסלין ובית הלל מכשירין ואיזו היא סוכה שלשה דפנות ושחמתה מרובה מצילתה פסולה סוכה ישנה השנה כשרה: מתחלת לשם חג אפילו ישנה כל שעשאה קודם לחג שלשים יום אבל אם עשאה
