(1) The words "1 day" in the chart means that after one day, the Halachos of "Shiv'ah" and "Sheloshim" are not observed at all. The words "7 days" in the chart means that the Halachos of "Shiv'ah" and of "Sheloshim" are observed as they are normally observed.

(3) RAV YAKOV EMDEN writes that this is not the same Elisha ben Avuyah known as "Acher," who is described in Chagigah (12b).
