In the first and the קדשים.קדשי What took its place in the second בית המקדש and where were its entrances according to?תנא קמא (A the Answers: Two פרוכת which were separated by an.אמה The entrance to the outer פרוכת was on the southern side. The entrance to the inner פרוכת was on the northern side.?רבי יוסי (B Answer: A single פרוכת with its entrance on the northern side. 2. What was יוסי s רבי reasoning for his opinion, and why did the תנא קמא disagree? Answer: רבי יוסי modeled the פרוכת of the בית שני after the פרוכת in the.משכן We see from the ונתתה את הפרכת תחת הקרסים והבאת שמה מבית לפרכת את ארון העדות והבדילה הפרכת לכם פסוק תנא The.פרכת there was only a single משכן that in the בין הקדש ובין קדש הקדשים )שמות כו:לג ) אמה טרקסין inherently agreed with this, but because he was in doubt whether the space of the קמא only had the קדושה of the היכל or the full קדושה of the קדשים,קדשי he required two separate which area definitely had,קדושת קדשי קדשים so it would be clear which area definitely had פרוכות for תוס ' See seems to be explaining. רש '' י and which area was in doubt. This is what קדושת ההיכל an alternate explanation.?בית המקדש in the second אמה טרקסין 3. Why didn t they use the Answer: The second בית המקדש was built taller than the first. It had a height אמות of 100 (or according to others 40). Structurally, it was not possible to make an אמה thick wall that high. Page 1 of 5

2 4. From south to north the היכל had the southern wall, the,מנורה the inner,מזבח the,שלחן the היכל through the קטורת took when bringing the כהן גדול northern wall. Describe the path the into the קדשי קדשים and the reasoning for the path according to?רבי יהודה (A Answer: רבי יהודה said that he walked between the מזבח and the.מנורה This follows the opinion of.פרוכת had to get to the southern entrance of the outer כהן גדול that the משנה of our תנא קמא the מנורה because the smoke from the מנורה He didn t want to go between the southern wall and the blackened the wall and would dirty the גדול s כהן clothing.?רבי מאיר (B Answer: רבי מאיר said that he walked between the שולחן and the.מזבח This follows the opinion of The.פרוכת (single) had to get to the northern entrance of the כהן גדול that the משנה of our רבי יוסי One.מנורה offers two possible reasons why he didn t go between the northern wall and the גמרא possibility was because רבי מאיר was of the opinion that the ten tables that שלמה המלך added in the went from north to south (in two rows of five). This blocked the area between the northern היכל wall and the.שולחן Another possibility was that it was a lack of respect to walk directly towards the north. opposite the open entrance on the קדשי קדשים?יש אומרים (C the Answer: The יש אומרים say that the כהן גדול walked between the שולחן and the northern wall of the רב חסדא.היכל says that the יש אומרים is רבי יוסי of our.משנה Therefore the כהן גדול needs to שלמה המלך that שולחנות He holds that the ten.פרוכת get to the entrance at the northern end of the added to the היכל go from east to west and would not block the גדול.כהן He also does not קדשי קדשים subscribe to the opinion that walking directly across from the northern entrance to the is inappropriate because of Hashem s deep love for ישראל,כלל He does not require such a formal.רבינו חננאל etiquette. See an alternate explanation in 5. According to the conclusion of our,גמרא what is the distance between the inner eastern wall of?קדשי קדשים and the inner western wall the היכל the.אמות Answer: 61 Page 2 of 5
