«Summary:
A The Talmud in several Braittot on Shabbat 6 mentions the status of Midbar
B The Rambam states it's a RhR
C The Tur AND SA omit Midbar [maybe it deserted them?]
D The SA is ambivalent WRT the 600K issue
Next topic:
Shabbat 6, the Braittot, the question of the Talmud, and Abbaye's answer»
TB Shabbat 6a
«Tannu Rabbanan Arba Reshuyot leShabbat
...
[6b] vlachshov nami midbar?
[Noting that Midbar is omitted from an apparently comprehensive list]
deha tanya eizohi RhR? ..."v'hamidbar"
[Contradiction to Braita #1]
Amar abbayei lo kashya!
A. Kan bizman sheyisrael shruyyin bamidbar
B. Kan bizman hazzeh
This issue of which way is which is debated by Rishonim
Is case A of Abbayei the RhR or the Carmelit? And Converse for Case B
At any rate the SA and the Tur take no sides and omit - apparently consciously[!] - the case of Midbar completely!
While the Rambam is very strange in that he calls EVERY Midbar a. RhR (as per Braitto #2)
This omits Abbaye's Hilluq and seems to make the plain Tanya "trump" a Tanu Rabbanan!
[NB: Tanu Rabbanan's are usually slightly higher in the pecking order than a vanilla Braitto]
Summary:
A the G'mara is split between 2 Braittot re: Midbar
B As per An undisputed Abbaye, there is a definite Hilluq and the braittot are not in dispute, rather they address 2 different scenarios.
C. SA and Tur are silent WRT Midbar
D Rambam re: Midbar takes one side in apparent disagreement with the Talmud's Hilluq
Preview of coming attractions:
What say Rashi and Tosafot?
And what light do they shed upon the Rambam's position?
