MISHNAH: If these passed without rainfall the Court decrees seven supplementary public fast-days for a total of thirteen. Additional to the prior ones on these one blows horns and locks the stores. On Mondays one relaxes at nightfall; on Thursdays they are permitted because of the honor of the Sabbath.

HALAKHAH: Rebbi Yudan son of Rebbi Ḥama of Kefar Teḥamin, like the forty which Moses spent on the Mountain. Rebbi Yose said, because one does not excessively impose on the community. Rebbi Ḥiyya bar Abba said, for if there were two causes, for example a lack of rain and locusts, one blows for both. And why for these two occasions? Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun said, for these two cause prices to increase.
