יום הנף כולו אסור:

- No; what indeed is meant is, when the Beth din sits, and the statement should be understood thus: On the Jubilee [it is blown] during the hours when the Beth din sits whether in the presence of the Beth din or not in the presence of the Beth din; but on New Year it is blown only when the Beth din sits and in the presence of the Beth din. It has also been stated [elsewhere]: R'Hiyya B'Gamda said in the name of R'Jose B'Saul, who had it from Rabbi: The shofar is blown only during the hours that the Beth din sits.
