Hallel

The Mishna states that they used to recite Hallel while eating the korban pesach, and the Gemara cites the
source for this.

h Masechet Pesachim 95a .הצ םיחספ תכסמ . 48
Mishna: What is the difference between the Paschal offering ?ינשל ןושארה חספ ןיב המ :הנשמ
offered on the first Pesach and the Paschal offering offered ינשהו אצמי לבו הארי לבב רוסא ןושארה
on the second Pesach [Pesach Sheni, on the 14 of Iyyar]? On ללה ןועט ןושארה .תיבב ומע הצמו ץמח
th
the first it is prohibited to own leavened bread due to the .ותליכאב ללה ןועט וניא ינשהו ותליכאב
prohibitions: It shall not be seen, and: It shall not be found.
And on the second Pesach it is permissible for one to have both ןנחוי יבר רמא ?ילימ ינה אנמ :ארמג
leavened bread and matza with him in the house. The first ארק רמא :קדצוהי ןב ןועמש יבר םושמ
Pesach requires the recitation of Hallel as it is eaten and the – ”גח שדקתה לילכ םכל היהי רישה“ –
second does not require the recitation of Hallel as it is eaten. ןיאש הליל ,ללה ןועט גחל שדוקמה הליל
GEMARA: From where are these matters derived that one must .ללה ןועט ןיא גחל שדוקמ
recite Hallel while eating the Paschal offering on the first Pesach?
Rabbi Yochanan said, citing Rabbi Shimon ben Yehotzadak, that the verse states: “You shall have a song
as in the night when a Festival is sanctified” (Yeshayahu 30:29). From here it may be derived that a night
sanctified as a Festival, on which labor is prohibited, such as the first night of Passover, requires the recitation
of Hallel; however, a night that is not sanctified as a Festival, such as the night when the Paschal offering is
eaten following the second Pesach, does not require the recitation of Hallel.

There are a number of distinctions between Hallel recited on the Seder night and Hallel recited at other times.
• Reciting a beracha over Hallel
At other times when the entire Hallel is recited, there is an accompanying beracha recited beforehand,
but at the Seder, we do not recite a beracha.
• The obligation of women
Women are generally exempt from saying Hallel since it is a time-bound mitzva, but on the Seder night,
they too are obligated to recite Hallel. Tosafot explain the reason for the difference.

r Tosafot, Masechet Sukkah 38a .חל הכוס תכסמ | תופסות . 49

Who was a slave and a woman – It is evident from here that a השאד ןאכ עמשמ – השאו דבע היהש
woman is exempt from [reciting] Hallel of Sukkot and similarly אמעטו תרצעד ןכו תוכוסד ללהמ הרוטפ
for Shavuot. And the reason is that it is a time-bound mitzva. לע ףא איה אמרג ןמזהש הוצמד םושמ
Even though regarding Hallel on the night of Pesach it appears קרפב עמשמ םיחספ ילילד ללהבד בג
from chapter Arvei Pesachim (108a) that she is obligated in the תוסוכ ’דב יבייחמד ).חק ףד( םיחספ יברע
four cups and presumably they instituted the four cups only in רמול ידכ אלא תוסוכ ’ד ונקית אל אמתסמו
order to recite Hallel and the Haggada on them, Hallel of Pesach
