We do not sound the shofar on Rosh HaShana that coincides with Shabbat. Our Daf teaches that this is only thecase outside of the Mikdash. In the Temple the shofar was blowneven on Shabbat. In searching for an explanation why the shofar is not sounded on Shabbat,our Gemara rejects the suggestion that this is a Biblical law based on thedifference between the pasuk in Bamidbar (29:1), whichcalls Rosh HaShana a day of teru'ah (i.e. blowing the shofar), and the pesukin Vayikra (23:24) that refers to it as a day of zikhron teru'ah(when we remember the blowing of the shofar), the former referring to a regularyear and the latter to Rosh HaShana falling on Shabbat.
We explore why Yavneh was an exception and how COVID and new technologies impact the halachot of communal davening and even Shofar via Zoom.
