אמור, פרק יב 1

Sifra · Emor, Chapter 12, Chapter 1

‹›
  1. 1

    [א] "וספרתם לכם" – כל אחד ואחד. "ממחרת השבת" – ממחרת יום טוב. יכול ממחרת שבת בראשית? אמר ר' יוסי בר' יהודה, כשהוא אומר "עד ממחרת השבת השביעית תספרו חמשים יום" – כל ספירתם לא יהיה אלא חמשים יום.

    1) (Vayikra 23:15) ("And you shall count for yourselves from the morrow of the Sabbath, from the day that you bring the omer of the lifting; seven complete Sabbaths shall they be."): "And you shall count for yourselves": Each one shall count for himself individually. "from the morrow of the Sabbath": from the morrow of the festival (Pesach, on the sixteenth day of Nissan). I might think, from the morrow of the (literal) Sabbath, of creation (i.e., Saturday) — R. Yossi b. R. Yehudah said: "Until the morrow of the seventh Sabbath shall you count fifty days" (Vayikra 23:16) indicates that the entire count (from Pesach until Shavuoth) will (always) be fifty days, (which would not be the case if the Sabbath of creation were meant).
