According to the beginning of our Mishnah, when Rosh Hashanah falls on Shabbat, where is the only place one could blow the shofar?
In the Beit HaMikdash in Jerusalem
After the Temple was destroyed, where did Yochonan ben Zakkai say one could blow the shofar
In any city with a beis din
How did Rebbi Elazar understand Rabbi Yochonan ben Zakkais ruling of only blowing the shofar in a city with a beit din
Rebbi Elazar felt that Rebbi Yochonan ben Zakkai meant only in Yavneh ( A city with the largest beit din)
Did the sages agree with Rebbi Elazar?
No
How did the sages understand Rebbi Yochonan ben Zakkai’s ruling on blowing the shofar on Shabbat after the destruction of the Temple
They thought Rebbi Yochonan ben Zakkai felt that that one could blow the shofar in any city with a Beit Din…. not just the big one.
How did the end of our Mishnah change our understanding from the beginning of the Mishnah… Where did the last opinion say that one could blow the shofar when RH fell on Shabbat
Any place that could
1) where you could see Yerushalayim
2) Where you could hear the shofar blowin in Jerusalem
3) in an area that was close to Yerushalayim
