Commentary for Kiddushin 68:11

הניחא למאן דאמר אין מלמדין אלא למאן דאמר מלמדין מאי איכא למימר

for I would argue, let us deduce 'fifteen', 'fifteen', from the feast of Tabernacles.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Thus shewing that women are exempt from eating unleavened bread; v. supra.');"><sup>18</sup></span> But let the Divine Law write unleavened bread, and 'assembling' is unnecessary, for I can reason, If it is incumbent upon children,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. Deut. XXXI, 12, 'and the children'.');"><sup>19</sup></span>

Daf Shevui to Kiddushin

The Talmud asks two difficulties—first of all, there are some sages who hold that we can learn from two verses that teach the same thing. If so, just as women are obligated in matzah and gathering, so too they are obligated in all positive time-bound commandments. The Talmud will return to this difficulty below.
The other question is the source for the opposite rule—that they are obligated in positive non-time bound commandments.
