Mishnah ראש השנה ד׳:ג׳ · Rosh Hashana 4:3
בָּרִאשׁוֹנָה הָיָה הַלּוּלָב נִטָּל בַּמִּקְדָּשׁ שִׁבְעָה,
וּבַמְּדִינָה יוֹם אֶחָד.
מִשֶּׁחָרַב בֵּית הַמִּקְדָּשׁ,
הִתְקִין רַבָּן יוֹחָנָן בֶּן זַכַּאי
שֶׁיְהֵא לוּלָב נִטָּל בַּמְּדִינָה שִׁבְעָה זֵכֶר לַמִּקְדָּשׁ,
וְשֶׁיְּהֵא יוֹם הָנֵף כֻּלּוֹ אָסוּר.
Originally the lulav was taken in the Mikdash seven days,
and in the medinah one day.
After the Beis HaMikdash was destroyed,
Rabban Yochanan ben Zakkai enacted
that the lulav be taken in the medinah seven days, as a remembrance of the Mikdash;
and that the day of the Omer-waving be entirely forbidden [for the new grain].

what does this mean?

A reading aid, not an exact translation.

This English is a clause-by-clause rendering to help you follow the Hebrew. It is not word-for-word literal, and it is not a transcript of the recorded shiur — the audio carries explanation and context the translation deliberately leaves out.

Transcript
A machine transcript of the recorded shiur.

This is the shiur as spoken, transcribed automatically and left unedited — the wording is Ephraim's, and occasional transcription errors remain. It follows the audio word by word.
