[Avodah] minhagei 9 av

[Gershon Dubin]

<<or would the approach you've publicized suggest that it was said merely
because the chiddush of "mishenichnas Av" would follow?>> 

 It's the opposite logic in the Gemara, actually.   The Mishna in Taanis
(26b) says mishenichnas Av mema'atim besimcha, whereupon the Gemara (29a)
says, keshem that mishenichnas Av mema'atim besimcha, kach mishenichnas
Adar marbim besimcha.
