length of the עזרה. Again, we're talking here about this area in front of the היכל, there was the you can open here you have page הלכה י\"א. So we're talking before about the length of the עזרה, this this עזרה here, let's go back to that same picture that we have before with all the where is it? this picture here. We have this and this, this is עזרה till here. This is the עזרת נשים. So we're talking about the length of this עזרה. So we spoke about the length from here till here. Now we're going to speak about the רוחב, the width of the עזרה. ורוחב העזרה מן הצפון לדרום, from צפון to דרום is מאה ושלשים וחמש. Like we said before, the width of the whole area was 135. The length was different. This one, this part was longer, and this shorter, but this way the whole width is 135. וזהו חשבונו, this is the חשבון how it went.

מכותל צפוני עד בית המטבחיים, from the צפונדיקע wall till the בית המטבחיים. צפונדיקע wall means, see, this is the דרום wall, where the מזבח stood, it was closer to the דרום, this is צפון. So from this wall on till בית המטבחיים, the area called בית המטבחיים, that was a space שמונה אמות, eight אמות. What's the בית המטבחיים? So he says בית המטבחיים י\"ב אמות ומחצה, בית המטבחיים itself was twelve and a half אמות. And שם תולין ומפשיטין את הקדשים מצדו, the בית המטבחיים was a place where they would skin the קרבנות, take off. So they had an empty area, that empty area was eight אמות, then you had twelve and a half אמות of the בית המטבחיים. Vaiter. Then there was מקום השולחנות, then there were it's an area where they have tables, שמונה אמות, that area was eight אמות. What were the tables for? ובו שולחנות של שיש, they had tables made of marble שמניחין עליהן הנתחים, they would bring the pieces of meat from the קרבנות, ומדיחין את הבשר לבשלו, they would wash the meat to cook it. ושמונה שולחנות היו, there were eight tables. בצד מקום השולחנות, and right after the שולחנות is מקום הטבעות, they were place of the rings, כ\"ד אמות, 24 אמה, שם שוחטין את הקדשים, and then שחט the קדשים. So if you keep חשבונות how much we have already, so we have eight, twelve and a half, eight, and 24. So vayter, הלכה ד', ובין מקום הטבעות והמזבח, now, that after the place where you had the rings, there was an area between there and the מזבח was a space, empty space, שמונה אמות, that was eight אמות, it's another eight. Then the מזבח שלשים ושתים, was 32 אמות. הכבש, the ramp of the מזבח, שלשים, 30 אמות. ובין הכבש לכותל דרומי דרומי, and now between after the מזבח and after the ramp, there was a space between the ramp and the wall, the דרומדיקע wall, שתים עשרה אמה ומחצה, was two twelve and a half אמות. If you make a חשבון of all these חשבונות together, it will come out to 135. If you add them up together, it would be 135. Now, be'emet

even though this is the middle of another halacha, it seems like the next halacha actually really should start from here. He said like this: מכותל צפוני של עזרה עד כותל המזבח, from the צפון side of the עזרה till the wall of the מזבח, רוחב ששים ומחצה, is 60 and a half. וכנגדו מכותל האולם עד כותל מזרחי של עזרה, torech, אורך שש ושבעים. And in the same area going the other direction between the אולם and the מזבח is 60 76. כל המרובע הזה נקרא צפון. הוא מקום שחיטת קדשי קדשים. It says that by the קדשי קדשים the קרבן עולה, and the rest of the קדשי קדשים you have to שחט on the צפון side of the מזבח. Now this, what's called צפון? Does it mean on the צפון side right next to the מזבח, an inch before the מזבח, a foot before the מזבח, on the צפון side? That means over here, the מזבח was over here. This side of the מזבח was צפון. Now from where which area in this side of the מזבח can you שחט the קרבנות? So he says this whole area here, which is an area 60 and a half by 76, that area is called צפון. Okay, vayter. שמונה

לשכות היו בעזרת ישראל. We said before you had the עזרה, and in the עזרה you had the מזבח, and you had all the different things we mentioned, in front of that was the, we said, the square of 135 by 135 of the עזרת נשים. Huh? הלכה י\"א? No, I said that. טבעות? Yeah, the טבעות, sure, he said everything. That's ו' and ז'. Now there were eight לשכות, eight compartments, in in the עזרת ישראל. Because we said before there was like this. There was the עזרה had the עזרת כהנים, and before the עזרת כהנים there was the עזרת ישראל. And oh, what I just said now was not really right. I said that we're talking now about the area of 135, that's עזרת נשים. In front of that is the עזרת כהנים, and in כהנים there was an area, short area, עזרת ישראל, and then there was the עזרת נשים. In this area of עזרת ישראל, you had eight לשכות, eight rooms. ג' בצפון וג' בדרום, three in צפון and three in דרום, and then two more he's going to say later, which is eight. And he taytsh'es it, שבדרום לשכת המלח, in דרום something like this, the לשכת המלח. You have a picture today? I don't see. You should have a big picture today. I don't see, I don't know why there isn't. It'll show all those chambers? Yeah, it doesn't, I don't see them. I don't see a picture, I don't know why. No. I don't know. No, I don't know, it's better. They really miniature- miniaturized this. They could, instead of taking a whole page up with it. Okay, they didn't want to take so much space. Okay, so yeah,

three in דרום, which is לשכת המלח, לשכת הפרווה, לשכת המדיחין. And he taytsh'es this what it means. לשכת המלח was שם נותנין מלח לקרבן, that they used to keep the salt for the קרבנות. לשכת הפרווה, שם מולחין עורות הקדשים, there you would salt the skins of the קדשים, because when you take skin off the animal in order to make it into leather and to use it you gotta salt it, so that's where they would salt it. Yeah. Now, why is it called לשכת הפרווה? What was the salt also thrown on the מזבח? Definitely, yeah. That's also the same salt? No, no, sure. They had one place where they kept the salt, one room where they salted the skins, that was later later they use the salt for the מזבח also. So was that two different places? No, no, what do you mean? You have the chamber of salt where all the salt was, or were they just salt the skins? No. No, no, no. One chamber was where they salted, where they had salt, they kept the salt, storage. The other place was where they salted the skins. Why is that called לשכת הפרווה where they salted? So he brings if in the Bartenura says there was a man, a מכשף, his name was Parvah, and he built this. Anyway, The Rambam says a different reason. Yeah. That's where they get the name Parvah? Yeah, Parvah. ועל גגו היתה בית טבילה לכהן גדול ביום הכפורים, on the roof of this בית לשכת הפרווה there was a mikveh. The Kohen Gadol used to טובל there on Yom Kippur. And the third one were לשכת המדיחין, what does that mean? שם היו מדיחין קרבי הקדשים. There they would wash the insides of the קרבנות. They had to wash the קרביים. ומשם מסיבה עולה לגג בית הפרווה, from there you had like a ramp going up to this other part, בית הפרווה. Okay, so that's the three from there.

השלש שבצפון, the other three in צפון, לשכת הגזית, לשכת הגולה, לשכת העץ. What are the three? לשכת הגזית was שבו סנהדרי גדולה יושבת, the Supreme Court, the top Sanhedrin for all the Yidden would sit there. Now how could you sit in the עזרה? This is a part of the עזרה. So he explains, חציו היה קדש וחציו היה חול. This was like this, it was at the corner of the area, but it's half stuck outside. So it was a room that half was in the עזרה, half was outside. Outside where? In the חיל. Into the חיל. Was outside, outside the wall. ולו שני פתחים. And that's חול, that's not קדש. And that had two doors, אחד לקדש ואחד לחול, had two openings, one to go into the עזרה, one to go to outside. עזרת ישראל had a certain kedushah to it, right? Right, עזרת ישראל has kedushah of עזרה. Yeah. That's why they couldn't sit there. So they had to sit וחצי של חול היה סנהדרי יושבים. They would sit in the other half. They would sit in the half which was not קדש. Like a mashal, if you have a room here, so you could have a room that is like this, here. Now here at this half of the room is קדש, this half of the room is חיל. So here you could sit and here you can't sit. So that's why they were allowed to sit there? That's why they were allowed, because they sat in the second half. אגב, בית פרווה, שם האיש, אמגושא, הוא היה מכשף, שהוא חתר Yeah, מכשף, I said that. בקיר and he died. And he died there, yeah. כן. עשה בקיר הזה מנהרה כדי לראות את העבודה ונהרג, לכן נקראת הלשכה על שמו. Right. Right. Was killed, he was That was Now imagine this. This this this is a room like, you see? This is the עזרה. This room is here, half of it is is outside, half is inside. In this part you're not allowed to sit, because אין ישיבה בעזרה. This part you could. So, there is, Sanhedrin sat over here. Then you had the other one called לשכת הגולה. What's לשכת הגולה? ששם היה בור, ששם מעלים ממנה בגולה. There there was a well and they had it like a stone cover on it, and ושם מספקים מים לכל העזרה. The water, the source of water for the עזרה came from there. Why they called לשכת הגולה? So, one pshat is because the people from גולה from outside of Eretz Yisrael paid for it and they they so, they did it. So, you give like nowadays you give a name this is this building that building. And another pshat is that it's not the word גולה, but it's the word גולה. גולה means the rock that covered the opening. That's what it's called. Then you had לשכת העץ. What is that? היתה אחורי שתיהן, it is behind these two, והיא היתה לשכת כהן גדול. It was the לשכה where the Kohen Gadol would stay. We know that 7 days before Yom Kippur he had to stay in his own room in his own place in the בית המקדש. 7 days before they made the פרה אדומה, they had to do the same thing the Kohen Gadol, the Kohen would stay there. So, he had a special room and that's called לשכת העץ. Why is it called לשכת העץ? So, one of the pshatim is because it was made of wood. She'eilah is can it be like that? Can it be? אין בנין בית, that's the she'eilah. Yeah. Yeah. They just had wood in it? Had wood paneling. That's what the vort is. The din is that you can't have the Rambam says you can't have wood in the בית המקדש, things that you could see. But if you have it covered, it doesn't matter. והיא נקראת לשכת פרהדרין. Had another name לשכת פרהדרין. Why is it called לשכת פרהדרין? פרהדרין means in in in a different language that officers. Now, officers change every 4 years they change the officers. The כהנים גדולים in the second of בית המקדש changed very often. Almost every year there was a new Kohen Gadol. So, they called the לשכה the לשכה the Kohen Gadol is the לשכה of the פרהדרין. וגג שלשתן שוה, and there was one even roof for all of them. So, these are the six already. We had three in דרום, three in צפון. Now, we said in the beginning there were eight. And then he says ושתי לשכות אחרות היו שם בעזרת ישראל, there was two more rooms, אחת מימין שער מזרח, one the right side of the מזרח gate, that's called לשכת פינחס המלביש. The לשכה of the of Pinchas who would dress because this is the place where they would get dressed. Taylor. Well, tailor he dressed them, he made sure to fit. So, the beginning I guess when they started with this, the guy who was in charge was called Pinchas. So, it got the name פינחס המלביש. ואחת משמאלה, and one was on the left side of this gate of the door, והיא לשכת עושי חביתין. The the לשכה of the people that made the חביתין. There was a קרבן חביתין that you had to bring Every day the Kohen Gadol would bring a קרבן חביתין. It was half yeah, it's a minchah. Half was in the morning, half was in the evening. Also, a Kohen the first day he started the avodah in his career בכלל would bring a קרבן מנחת חביתין. So, this was a special place where they had for the for the לשכת for עושי חביתין. Okay, now we'll go to פרק ב׳. No gluten in the pancakes. המקדש כולו לא היה במישור, ah? That's what it is, it's קרבן מנחה, נו. You have מנחת חביתין, you have מנחת מחבת, you have all. י״ב חלות. Yeah, they were all. י״ב חלות, but they were baked, and then you have מחבת. Not a little bit, a lot. Big pancakes. Big, look how much how much it was. I think 12 סאה, yeah? One pancake? י״ב חלות. I don't know. I think it was how much was it? It says how much it of flour it had. A lot of flour that was a big thing. Ah, a lot of oil. So, we'd call it, ah? Water. Boiled. Well, it depends. It was different קרבנות. They were תימנים, those כהנים. If תימנים, . One thing is for sure. They were chasidim. I don't know if Teimanim chasidim or not. From Tzfat and I don't know. Maybe מתנגדישע חסידים. Well, this was בית המקדש, so Uh? Oh, that just for mayin. It doesn't mean anything. המקדש כולו לא היה במישור. The whole בית המקדש was not flat, was not straight. When we said all this areas that we said before you have in the beginning you walked in, you had the the the עזרת נשים and then the עזרת ישראל, then the עזרת כהנים. So far, it would seem there was like a flat, one floor and you walked straight through these areas. It says no, it wasn't flat, אלא במעלה ההר, it was on a mountain. So, these different areas there was one area like this, then you walked up steps and then there was other area, walked up steps, another area, that's how it went. It says כיצד? אדם נכנס משער מזרח של הר הבית, so they explain how it is. When you walked in the beginning in the front from מזרח side, שער מזרחי of הר הבית, מהלך עד סוף החיל וכו׳. This is going back not even in the בית המקדש, we're going back all the way to the הר הבית. We said before that the first there was a space in that of this הר הבית and the הר הבית. Then you had after that the חיל and after the חיל you walk. So you say like this, when you walked into the הר הבית, you would walk straight till the end of the חיל. The next area, the חיל, בשוה, this was a flat area. Now, ועולה מן החיל לעזרת נשים. Now you would enter now into the עזרה, but not the real עזרה, the עזרת נשים. The עזרת נשים was already elevated. So in order to get from the חיל to the עזרת נשים, you would walk בשתים עשרה מעלות, 12 steps up. How high was it? רום כל מעלה, the height of every step was חצי אמה, was 1/2 אמה, ושילחה, and the the step itself was חצי אמה. That was, it was חצי אמה flat, so then it would have like this, 1/2 אמה like this, then 1/2 אמה this way, 1/2 אמה like this. 12 steps, you know, it's pretty high. So, you walked like this. Then weiter, ומהלך כל עזרת נשים בשוה, and then the whole עזרת נשים was flat. Now, how could you make it flat if it was a mountain? How did they these places get flat? They make it flat. They make it flat! They put sand there, they put they flattened it out. Yeah. ועולה ועולה ממנה לעזרת ישראל, so you

would go to the עזרת נשים, and then from the עזרת נשים you would go up to get to the next area, the עזרת ישראל, you would have to go up steps again. לתחלת העזרה, you would go to the beginning of the עזרה with עזרת ישראל, בחמש עשרה מעלות, you would have 15 steps. Before was 12, this is even higher. רום כל מעלה חצי אמה, the height of every step was 1/2 אמה, ושילחה, and the the space of the was שילחה חצי אמה 1/2 אמה. So, you see here he says like this. Here he has a picture. This is the חיל. You walk into here which you're going to go into the You have 12, 12 steps to get into the the top of the עזרה. Here you're going from this it's עזרת נשים, so you go into the עזרת ישראל you would walk up 15 steps. Okay. And there would be a gate there. ומהלך כל עזרת ישראל בשוה, you would walk the עזרת ישראל flat. עזרת ישראל was not too wide, so it was not much, but there was he walked up. ועולה ממנה לעזרת כהנים במעלה גבוהה אמה, then you would walk from the עזרת ישראל to the עזרת כהנים only one step up, one אמה up. What's that?

ולמעלה בדוכן יש בו שלש מעלות. On top of that, you walked and then you had a stage of three steps, and רום כל מעלה, the height of every step was חצי אמה, 1/2 אמה, ושילחה, and the step itself was חצי אמה, 1/2 אמה. נמצא, so after all these חשבונות, it comes out שעזרת הכהנים גבוהה על של ישראל שתי אמות ומחצה. So, it comes out that the עזרת הכהנים was higher than the עזרת ישראל 2 1/2 2 1/2 אמות. Then ומהלך כל עזרת הכהנים, you would walk straight that עזרת כהנים, והמזבח ובין האולם ולמזבח בשוה, the whole עזרת כהנים and the area with המזבח was, and then we said after the מזבח there was an area between the מזבח and the אולם. Between the מזבח and the beginning of the building was again straight. It's only 11 11 אמות, right? No, עזרת ישראל. But now we're talking from the beginning of עזרת ישראל and the עזרת כהנים all the way till you get to the building, till you get to the אולם. So, then you would walk straight. Now, after that came the building. Let's go back to that same old picture. Oh, here. This is this is a better picture. Here is this is this is the עזרת נשים. You walked here. You walked up steps. Came here. You walked straight here. You walked up You straight here. Then you walked up steps here. Oh, the 15 steps, right? See, this is 12 steps, this is a 15 steps here. You You can't see this. 15 steps. Then you would walk here straight all the way this way till here. 2 1/2 steps. Till you would 2 1/2 then till you would get here. Now, you're going going to the from here the next area is the building. To go to the building, the first area of the building was called the אולם. So, he says to get into the אולם, so after you walk the עזרת כהנים straight, עולה משם לאולם, you would come up to the אולם בשתים עשרה מעלות, 12 steps, and רום כל מעלה חצי אמה, the height of every step was 1/2 אמה, ושילחה, and the step itself was אמה, was an אמה. והאולם וההיכל כולו בשוה. Now, the building, walking into the building, you had the three compartments. You had the Ulam, the Kodesh, and the Kodesh Hakodashim, which they include them in the Heichal, so all that was beshaveh, was all straight. So, these steps right before These are the steps right before the Ulam. Here are the steps right here. It turns out to the Ulam. How many? 12 steps. Right. Here also. Here are the steps before the Ulam. How much difference between the עזרת ישראל and עזרת כהנים? There's There's 2 1/2, it's not much. Yeah. Right, right, right. as far as madregot, Right, right. a big difference. Yeah. Nimtza, so it comes out, גובה קרקע ההיכל על קרקע שער המזרח של הר הבית, that comes out like this. The floor of the Heichal, the floor of the building, versus the floor of the קרקע שער המזרח של הר הבית, of the floor in the beginning when you entered into the beginning of שער הר הבית, is שתים ועשרים אמה, it's 22 אמות. That means that when you walked here, and over here you went to the area, you went up, you went here, you went, so the top area which was the אולם לגבי here is 22 אמה. Lefichach the gate by שער הר הבית עשרים אמה. The height of the gate of the הר הבית is 20 אמה. לפיכך העומד כנגד שער המזרח אינו רואה פתח ההיכל. Therefore, if you would stand by the שער המזרח, you couldn't see the פתח ההיכל. Because if you stood by שער המזרח, if this was 20 אמה, this was 22, but it's blocked. So if you stood here, here he has a He stood here, you couldn't see into. And what's the problem with that? Because it says that by the by the פרה אדומה it had to be נוכח, you had to watch there. So he says, ומפני זה עשו, that's why they made כותל שעל גבי שער זה נמוך, they made this wall lower כדי שיהא כהן העומד בהר המשחה, the כהן standing בהר המשחה, which is the הר הזיתים, רואה פתח ההיכל בשעה שמזה מדם הפרה נוכח ההיכל. He would see the door of the היכל when he was spritzing the blood of the פרה by the היכל. That's it. So where Which wall was lower, can I ask you again? Which Which wall? The the the wall in front of the gate? Right. Wall in front of the gate. And that was a lower wall than the rest of the wall? Than the rest of the walls, cuz then you should be able to see through. I understand. I understand. Did we have 20 people? No. pizza, WhatsApp status Good boy, how have you been? Shalom aleichem. Shalom aleichem. I just took epes nah in יפוצו מעינותיך חוצה. Did I say it right? Huh? No? You know, and spreading the wellsprings of Chassidut. First good thing to see is putting on filling up

people's Could be Strauss. It's Strauss? Okay. Good. Thank you.
