Mishnah 1

Mishnayos Pesachim Perek 5 Mishnah 7

פסחים פרק ה׳ משנה ז׳

7
The first group exited upon completion of the rite, and the second group entered; the second group left upon completion of its rite, and the third group entered. As it was done by the first group, so was it done by the second and third groups. All the people standing in the Temple courtyard while the Paschal lambs were being slaughtered would recite hallel. If they finished reciting it before all the offerings were slaughtered, they recited it a second time, and if they finished reciting it a second time, they recited it a third time, although in practice they never recited it a third time, as the priests worked efficiently and finished the rite before this became necessary. Rabbi Yehuda says: The third group never reached even once the opening verse of the fourth chapter of hallel: “I love that the Lord hears the voice of my supplications” (Psalms 116:1), because its people were few and the slaughtering of all the offerings was completed during the recitation of the first three chapters.
יָצְתָה כַת רִאשׁוֹנָה וְנִכְנְסָה כַת שְׁנִיָּה. יָצְתָה שְׁנִיָּה, נִכְנְסָה שְׁלִישִׁית. כְּמַעֲשֵׂה הָרִאשׁוֹנָה כָּךְ מַעֲשֵׂה הַשְּׁנִיָּה וְהַשְּׁלִישִׁית. קָרְאוּ אֶת הַהַלֵּל. אִם גָּמְרוּ שָׁנוּ, וְאִם שָׁנוּ שִׁלְּשׁוּ, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁלֹּא שִׁלְּשׁוּ מִימֵיהֶם. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, מִימֵיהֶם שֶׁל כַּת שְׁלִישִׁית לֹא הִגִּיעַ לְאָהַבְתִּי כִּי יִשְׁמַע ה', מִפְּנֵי שֶׁעַמָּהּ מֻעָטִין:
ז׳

קראו את ההלל – each of the three groups.

אם גמרו שנו – When they would begin to slaughter, they would begin to recite [Hallel] and if there many Passover sacrifices and the time of their slaughtering stretched out until they completed and still there were many to slaughter, they would return and recite [Hallel] a second time and if they read it twice and still had not completed the slaughtering of the Passover offerings of that group, they would go back and recite it a third time, and similarly for the second group and the third group.

אע"פ שמעולם לא שלשו – for the Kohanim were many and zealous.

לא הגיעו לאהבתי – even one time.

קראו את ההלל. כל השלש כתות:

אם גמרו שנו. כשהיו מתחילים לשחוט היו מתחילים לקרות, ואם רבו הפסחים ומשך זמן שחיטתן עד שגמרו ועדיין רבים לשחוט, חוזרים וקורין שניה. ואם קראו שניה ועדיין לא גמרו שחיטת הפסחים של אותו הכת, חוזרין וקורין שלישית. וכן כת שניה ושלישית:

אע״פ שמעולם לא שלשו. שהכהנים היו רבים וזריזין:

לא הגיעו לאהבתי. אפילו פעם ראשונה:

As it was done during the week, so was it done on Shabbat; only that on Shabbat the priests would rinse the Temple courtyard, cleaning away the blood, contrary to the wishes of the Sages, as the priests did not want to veer from the weekday procedure in this regard. Rabbi Yehuda says: Before the floor was rinsed, a priest would fill a cup with the blood of the many offerings brought that day that was now mixed together on the floor and then sprinkle it with a single sprinkling upon the altar. But the Rabbis did not agree with Rabbi Yehuda with regard to this point.
כְּמַעֲשֵׂהוּ בְחֹל כָּךְ מַעֲשֵׂהוּ בְשַׁבָּת, אֶלָּא שֶׁהַכֹּהֲנִים מְדִיחִים אֶת הָעֲזָרָה שֶׁלֹּא בִרְצוֹן חֲכָמִים. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, כּוֹס הָיָה מְמַלֵּא מִדַּם הַתַּעֲרֹבוֹת, זְרָקוֹ זְרִיקָה אַחַת עַל גַּבֵּי הַמִּזְבֵּחַ, וְלֹא הוֹדוּ לוֹ חֲכָמִים:
ח׳

שהכהנים מדיחים את העזרה – because there was a great amount of blood , they would rinse it (i.e., the courtyard) on the Sabbath for the canal of water would go in the courtyard and when they would want to rinse it, they would stop up the hole where it (i.e., the water) comes out and the water stretches out over its banks and rinses the entire courtyard [for the courtyard was entirely a floor of alabaster], and afterwards they open the hole and the waters come out.

מדם התערובות – that is lying on the floor. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yehuda.

שהכהנים היו מדיחין את העזרה. מפני שהדמים מרובים היו מדיחין אותה בשבת. שאמת המים היתה מהלכת בעזרה וכשהן רוצים להדיח פוקקים את נקב יציאתה והמים פושטים על כל גדותיה ומדיחין כל העזרה [שהעזרה רצפה של שיש היתה כולה] ואח״כ פותחין הנקב והמים יוצאים:

מדם התערובות. המוטל על הרצפה. ואין הלכה כרבי יהודה:
