What are the ramifications of the comparison of the anointing of the Kohen Gadol to his wearing the Bigdei Kehunah?

1.

Yoma, 5a: It teaches us that (Lechatchilah) a Kohen Gadol had to have been anointed for seven days - just as he wore the eight Begadim, for the seven days of initiation, in order to be allowed to enter the Kodesh Kodashim on Yom Kipur. 1


1

See Gemara there that, Bedieved, even if he wore the Begadim for seven days and was anointed for only one, or vice-versa, sufficed. See also Torah Temimah, note 19, who elaborates, and note 20.

2)

What are the implications of the words "Tachtav mi'Banav"?

1.

Rashi: It implies that, if the Kohen Gadol has a son who is qualified to fill his father's place, he should be chosen to succeed his father as Kohen Gadol.

3)

In the context of the Pasuk, what is "Asher Yavo el Ohel Mo'ed" coming to preclude?

1.

Yoma, 73b: It precludes the son of a Mashu'ach Milchamah - who is not eligible to come to the Ohel Mo'ed (on Yom Kipur) from automatically inheriting his father's position. 1


1

In spite of the fact, generally a son does inherit his father's position (such as that of a king) - See Torah Temimah, note 21.

4)

What are the connotations of the words "ha'Kohen Tachtav mi'Banav"?

1.

Rashi: It means the one who serves from his sons 1 instead of him ... . 2

2.

Rashbam, Targum Onkelos and Targum Yonasan: It means the Kohen from among his sons who replaces him ... . 3


1

As if the two words "Tachtav mi'Banav" were inverted.

2

Because the word "ha'Kohen" is (not a noun, but) a verb, which explains why the Neginah underneath the word is a 'T'vir'. See Sifsei Chachamim. (How can we say so about "v'Chohen Ki Yikneh Kinyan Kaspo...; u'Vas Kohen" (Vayikra 22:11,12), which apply to even to a Ba'al Mum, who does not serve? And "Bnei Aharon ha'Kohen" (Vayikra 1:7) applies even after Aharon's death! Perhaps it should say ha'Kohanim, just it says ha'Kohen for a Drashah (refer to Vayikra 1:7:3:1,2 - PF).

3

In spite of Rashi's proof to the contrary. Refer to 29:30:2:1*.

5)

What is the basic Pasuk coming to teach us? What is "Ohel Mo'ed" referring to?

1.

Rashi and Rashbam: That when the Kohen Gadol's successor 1 - who is designated to enter the Kodesh Kodashim' on Yom Kipur is initiated, he should wear the Bigdei Kohen Gadol for seven days.


1

See Sifsei Chachamim.

6)

Seeing as the Torah is referring to the Kodesh ha'Kodashim, why does it refer to it as "Ohel Mo'ed"?

1.

Oznayim la'Torah: Because in fact, the entire Heichal, including the Kodesh Kodashim, falls under th heading of 'Ohel Mo'ed', only the tTorah refers to the formder as "Ohel Mo'ed mi'Chutz la'Paroches', 1 and to the latter, as 'mi'Beis la'Paroches'. And sometimes, such as here, it refers to either independently as 'Ohel Mo'ed' S'tam.
