Bechoros Daf 28

If you look at the Mishnah, the Mishnah says an ambiguous nusach.

The Mishnah says that if a mom took place, you can hold on to it for 12 months.

After Shana, you can only hold on to it for 30 days.

And the question is, what does it mean? After Shana, you can only hold on to it for 30 days.

What does it mean? If the month takes place, if the month takes place, You're allowed to hold on to it all 12 months.

And you also get 30 days.

That 30 days is going even in a case where the mom was nilad within the 12 months.

Again, usually I have to hold on to it a year.

So if the mom is nilad within the 12 months, you hold on to it a year, plus you get a bonus of 30 days.

If it's within 12 months, then you only have 12 months.

The 30 days is if it's after 12 months.

You look at the Mishnah, it's not Mavor either way.

Is the Mishnah saying that the 30 days is for the case where the mom is nilad during the 12 months? So then you basically get 12 months plus a freebie of 30 days.

Or does it refer to a person that the mom was nilad after 12 months.

We don't say, okay, you got to go running.

No, you have 30 days.

You hold on to it for 30 days.

That's the Gemara Yisrael.

In today's days, when we don't have Beis Hamikdash, before it's not meaning, before it got a mom, you're allowed to hold on to it two, three years? Before it gets a mom? You can hold on to it.

But once it gets a mom, if the mom came within 12 months, you're allowed to keep it for 12 months, like our Mishnah.

After 12 months, After 12 months, really, you got a shechta right away.

You can't hold on to it, even one day, even one year, one hour.

But, Chazal, we're concerned of Hashav HaSaved.

What are we afraid of? We're afraid, Rashi explains, that the Yisrael is not going to find a kayin.

Not everyone is ready to have a kayin in his vicinity every single day.
