The 4 Minhagim
Parshas Hashavua
ויצא
There are 4 different Minhagim when to start pronouncing
ישכר instead of יששכר.
1) The first time the name appears. (פ' ויצא).
2) From the second time & on (פ' ויגש)
3) From Parshas פנחס & on
4) From Parshas שמות & on
Some, who claim, that the Minhagim 1-2-3 are based
on reasons 1-2-3
1) According to Dikduk ישכר is the proper pronunciation
therefore we always pronounce it correctly (even the first time)
2) The first time we pronounce the original name as it was given.
From then on we cover up the 2nd reason.
3) The changeover from יוב to ישוב is in פ' פנחס therefore
we do the same with the changeover from יששכר to ישכר.
4) I don't know. Perhaps the עולם has a Pshat
Reasons 1-2-3 to pronounce it ישכר.
1) In דקדוק there are
times when two same letters next to
each other to pronounce only the first letter. . מחצצרים דהי"א
ט"ו:כ"ד is pronounced מחצרים 2) The two ש's in יששכר symbolizes 2
times שכר a) The שכר of giving
זלפה to יעקב b) The שכר of Leah
giving away the דודאים so she can spend an extra
night with יעקב. Being the second שכר
is a לשון גנאי (not appropriate to
publicize) therefore we drop
the second ש.
3) The second ש was given to יוב his
son who in Parshas פנחס is called ישוב (see
רש"י במדבר כ"ו:כ"ד) מפרשים write It was
discovered later on of an עבודה זרה named יוב so they
removed one ש from יששכר and added it to יוב and it became
ישוב.
