Rosh Hashanah 4:2
Rosh Hashanah4: 2
וְעוֹד זֹאת הָיְתָה יְרוּשָׁלַיִם יְתֵרָה עַל יַבְנֶה, שֶׁכָּל עִיר שֶׁהִיא רוֹאָה וְשׁוֹמַעַת וּקְרוֹבָה וִיכוֹלָה לָבֹא, תּוֹקְעִין; וּבְיַבְנֶה לֹא הָיוּ תוֹקְעִין אֶלָּא בְּבֵית דִּין בִּלְבַד.
In this [matter], too, Jerusalem was superior to Yavneh, in that any town which could see [Jerusalem], and could hear, and is near [to Jerusalem], and can come [to Jerusalem on the Sabbath], may blow [the shofar on the Sabbath]; whereas in Yavneh they blew only before the beis din.
