1)
(a) Our Mishnah says 'be'Shachris, u've'Musaf u've'Minchah Korin al Pihen'.
What are the two possible interpretations of this statement?
(b) Which is the correct one?
(c) What problem does Rebbi Yossi have with the Tana Kama, who says
'u've'Minchah Korin Osah al Peh'?
(d) What did they do, according to him?
2)
(a) Rebbi Yehoshua holds that on days when they brought the Korban Musaf,
there was no Ma'amad at Minchah, but there was at Ne'ilah. Why is that?
(b) Did the families who donated wood for the Mizbei'ach give, even if there
was sufficient wood in the stockpile?
3)
(a) What decree did the Romans issue in the days of the Gonvei Ali and the
Kotz'ei Ketzi'os?
(b) How did ...
- ... the Gonvei Ali and the Kotz'ei Ketzi'os outwit the Roman guards?
- ... the B'nei Salmai also do so?
(c) If the Pasuk in Mishlei writes "Zeicher Tzadik li'Verachah" with regard
to these Tzadikim, to whom does "ve'Sheim Resha'im Yirkav" refer?
4)
(a) On the twenty-ninth of Av, the family of Pachas ben Yehudah donated wood
for the Mizbei'ach. According to Rebbi Meir, Pachas ben Yehudah was none
other than David ha'Melech. Who was it in the opinion of Rebbi Yossi?
(b) On the twentieth of Elul, the family of Adin ben Yehudah donated wood for
the Mizbei'ach. According to Rebbi Yehudah, Adin ben Yehudah was David
ha'Melech. Who was it, according to Rebbi Yossi?
(c) Why does it now appear that the author of our Mishnah, which states that
Par'osh ben Yehudah donated wood for a second time, cannot be Rebbi Meir,
Rebbi Yehudah or Rebbi Yossi?
(d) We conclude that in fact, the author of our Mishnah is Rebbi Yossi. How
is that possible?

5)
(a) Our Mishnah says that, whenever they brought a Korban Musaf, there was no
Ma'amad at Minchah. Does that mean that there was a Ma'amad at Musaf?
(b) Then what did Mar Keshisha mean when he asked Rav Ashi why Hallel
overrides its own Ma'amad, whereas Musaf does not?
(c) What did Rav Ashi reply?
6)
(a) Rebbi Yossi says that whenever there is a Musaf, there is a Ma'amad.
Why can he not have been referring to ...

- ... the Ma'amad of Musaf?
(b) Then what *is* he referring to?
(c) What does the Tana Kama hold?
7)
(a) In Eretz Yisrael, we complete Hallel on eighteen days in the year. What
are they?
(b) On which additional days is Hallel said in Chutz la'Aretz?
(c) Why do we complete Hallel on Chanukah, seeing as Chanukah is only
mi'de'Rabbanan?
8)
(a) Why is Rosh Chodesh not included in the above list?

be'Tamuz?
11)
(a) According to the Tana of our Mishnah, the walls of Yerushalayim were
breached on the *seventeen* of Tamuz, too. How do we reconcile that with
the date given in the Pasuk in Yirmiyah as the *ninth*?

be'Tamuz?
(c) Who placed the image in the Heichal? When did he do that?
(d) Why does the Pasuk in Daniel refer to *two* images?

Tosfos' second explanation)?
