משנה: אָמַר רַבִּי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ בֶּן קָרְחָה וְעוֹד זוֹ הִתְקִין רַבָּן יוֹחָנָן בֶּן זַכַּאי שֶׁאֲפִילּוּ רֹאשׁ בֵּית דִּין בְּכָל מָקוֹם שֶׁלֹּא יְהוּ הָעֵדִים הוֹלְכִין אֶלָּא לִמְקוֹם הַוַועַד:
MISHNAH: Rebbi Joshua ben Qorḥa said: In addition, Rabban Joḥanan ben Zakkai instituted that even if the head of the court be anywhere, the witnesses should only go to the seat of the council.

הלכה: כֵּיני מַתְנִיתָא. לִמְקוֹם הַוַועַד שֶׁלְחוֹדֶשׁ.
HALAKHAH: So is the Mishnah: To the seat of the Calendar Council44Since the declaration of the new moon is a collective enterprise of the court, the presence or absence of one member is irrelevant. Since in later times the Patriarch’s court was at Sepphoris or Tiberias, but the Calendar Court was sitting at Eintab, it is necessary to clarify that witnesses who violate Sabbath or holiday rules in order to testify may do so only when they are going to appear before the Calendar Court..
