Welcome to the Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Steve Kane looks at Masechet Rosh Hashana Daf 24.


After discussing what kind of questions one asks witnesses about Rosh Hodesh, we look at the declaration of the new month. What did the Bet Din say, and how did the people respond to the declaration? What was the reason for this ceremony? What is the role of the people versus the role of “heaven” in deciding the calendar?
