Hence [obviously] the explanation given at first<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Namely that the Baraitha ruling (cf. Pes. 55b) refers to the fourteenth of Nisan while our Mishnah refers to the festival week. Cf. R. Ash's reply, above. For further notes on this passage v. pes., Sonc. ed. p. 276. ,ughme');"><sup>5</sup></span> is the correct one.
