Re: Zevachim 059: Offering 142,000 Korbanos in a single day
Morris Smith asked:
>>
according to the opinion of Rav Yossi,how was Shlomo Hamelech able to
sacrifice 142,000
korbanot in one day ? if we assume a 12 hour day of sunlight(not a bad
assumption, since
the dedication of the Beit HaMikdash was in the month of tishrei), we are
dealing with a
period of 43,200 seconds, which would mean than over 3 korbanot per second
were
slaughtered, blood was collected, walked with and thrown on the sides of
the mizbeach?...<<

Mark Bergman comments:
Of course, many Korbonos can be slaughtered simultaneously.
In fact the Gemoro in Pesochim describes many lines of Kohanim - at the end
of each line a Shechita was done and the blood speedily passed in to the
Mizbeach.
