Rosh Hashanah 32: The Splendor of the King Is in the Multitudes
Talking Talmud - A podcast by Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
Categories:
A 5-mishnah daf. Opening with the structure of the Amidah for Musaf on Rosh Hashanah, including the shofar-blowing that takes place interspersed during this prayer. Also, the configuration of each section for Rosh Hashanah (malkhiyot, zikhronot, shofarot) - and the obligation for each. Also, the verses of these sections do not mention punishment, by design. Also, moving on from the content of Musaf to the way it unfolds in shul - with the shaliach tzibur and the person blowing shofar. Plus, how the non-Jewish authority prevented shofar-blowing (or tried). Plus, why we don't say Hallel on Rosh Hashanah. Also, prioritizing shofar-blowing... Or not quite. Also, why blowing shofar doesn't take precedence over other mitzvot, particularly the violation of melakhah for the sake of the shofar (ie, we don't do it).
