| ZEVACHIM 54 - Two weeks of study material have been dedicated by Mrs. Estanne Abraham Fawer to honor the eleventh Yahrzeit of her father, Rav Mordechai ben Eliezer Zvi (Rabbi Morton Weiner) Z'L, who passed away on 18 Teves 5760. May the merit of supporting and advancing Dafyomi study -- which was so important to him -- during the weeks of his Yahrzeit serve as an Iluy for his Neshamah. |
1)
(a) The Beraisa describes the Avodah of the Olas ha'Of. How did the Kohen perform the Matnas Dam on the Mizbe'ach?
(b) By which Keren did he perform the Avodah of the Olas ha'Of?
(c) What problem does this create, seeing as, as we just explained, the south-eastern Keren had no Y'sod?
(d) Why can we not answer that the blood would anyway fall on to the Soveiv, which is where he was standing when he performed the Mitzuy?

(a) What condition does Rav Nachman bar Yitzchak therefore present which the Chachamim therefore must have made?
(b) How does this answer the Kashya, seeing as the blood would drip down on to the floor, which was Yehudah's domain?
(c) Rav learns that apart from the one Amah in the east and the south, those two sides had no Y'sod (as we have understood until now). What does Levi say?
(d) If Rav quotes the Targum of "ba'Boker Yochal Ad" as 'be'Achsanteih Yisbanei Madb'cha (in his portion the Mizbe'ach will be built)', what is Levi's version?

(a) What was the length of ...
1. ... the ramp?
2. ... the Mizbe'ach?
(b) To reconcile this with the Beraisa, which gives the combined length as sixty-two Amos, we answer 'Nimtza Pore'ach al Amah Y'sod ve'al Amah Soveiv'. What do we mean by that?
(c) How does this Beraisa pose a Kashya on Rav?
(d) How will Rav then explain the Beraisa?

5)
(a) The Beraisa describes how the three sections of the Mizbe'ach, as well as the Amah al Amah K'ranos were made. What were their respective sizes?
(b) How were they formed?
(c) Why does this Beraisa pose a Kashya on Rav?
(d) Why can Rav not answer that they subsequently cut off the section of Y'sod that was in Yehudah's territory?

(a) So how does Rav solve this problem? What did they do to avoid filling in Yehudah's portion, despite the shape of the mold?
(b) And we prove it with a statement of Rav Kahana. Based on the Pasuk in Zecharyah "Umal'u ke'Mizrak ke'Zaviyos Mizbe'ach", what did Rav Kahana say about the four K'ranos?
(c) What was the purpose of these holes?
(d) Given the fact that the K'ranos were made in the same way as the other sections of the Mizbe'ach (as we explained), how did they make these holes, without actually boring a hole into them?
