Our daffi sponsors for today and Sarah Steinberg in this of continued help for Shalamas and for an ultimate shalma. Incredible. Incredible. Thank you. Good. And more dedications which will be posted on the on the on the chat and to everyone. 1:49 >> Good dation from the Lord. I'm going to read it. >> I'm okay. >> Okay. Um, the board of ESO Dafomi today sponsored by the board of suburban Orthodox Congregation wishing the silver family a tremendous mazle of uh on on my appointment to executive president of the OU. We are filled with pride in this well-deserved honor and all that it represents. We extend our heartfelt to 2:14 the entire for all they have done for the sh for the past 23 years and for commitment to maintaining an active meaningful relationship with our as as I take on this exciting new role to the OU. Okay, the rest will be posted. 2:31 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It is been the greatest to learn with this beautiful ande just getting started. There's a lot more there. There's a lot more to be done. There's shast to be finished. There's a new cycle to begun to be begun to begin to to start together and say 2:56 all right much more to say about this. But the most beautiful part about meaningful relationships is that over time by definition they inevitably change. That's the nature of relationships. I love my children very much and it was such a to have them when they were in my house when they were little. Then they grow up and then they go on. They live lives in their own way. 3:14 And as much as the relationships changes, it becomes it's different. But it becomes beautiful. It becomes wonderful. And it becomes stronger in so many different ways. So hashem will the relationship change over time? Of course, inevitably. Inevitably, it always does. And of course with this new opportunity, the relationship will change. But hashem as always I remain committed to all of you and I remain committed to being your rebi 3:38 for many years to come in some way shape or form whatever way you'll have me and it has been the greatest to learn and to grow skills like a hespit to learn to learn to learn and to grow but certainly here in in the immediate future we're here and we're going to continue shear in a regular schedule but even going beyond you know it just means that Our tech team has a 4:02 brand new challenge ahead of them. I'm talking holograms, 3DS, you know, and you know, I'm sorry, bigger budget. There may be a statement. There may be a statement. There may be a grant available if you're hashem. But I will say we we've done something incredible over the last number of years and it's not going to stop. It's it's g it's gonna morph because that's how life works. It's going to morphe, but it's not going to stop. I I remain 4:26 committed to all of you as my beloved and for many years to come. We're going to we're going to learn whether it's whether it's whether it's things we actually understand whatever whatever whatever whatever whatever it might be together forever growing learning and becoming the best of friends. It's been over the last number of decades and I'm not stopping. 4:50 I look forward to this for many more to come. Say with that let's let's let's begin. We are picking up on today's test 119. We are picking up on 118b. 5:06 We left off. Where did we leave off? Um, right. Good. So again, remember again, so our topic actually is a relatively a relatively straightforward one, which is well actually I take that back. It's not straightforward at all again. So remember just to reorient ourselves a bit. So in in the Mishna in the Mishna we were speaking about the idea of Oakland and Tomas both both of those items. And remember we're speaking about 5:35 the Shir for Tomas and Tomas and Tomas is going to be Nava is going to be a really fundamental Shila is how does everything combine ultimately again to form with each other. How does everything form combine to form the requisite sh form Oakland and for tumasa? 5:54 So we're talking about specifically in our in our d yesterday and now continuing forward is and what is the status of a shom and the yad. Remember shr means something that essentially guards the item. The yad means something that serves as a handle for the item. And how do those specific items form to also combine to form the requisite shear? That's our says there are three that are mentioned 6:26 or three phrases that are mentioned. So ultimately again the Gimra says the Gimra says one is coming to teach us sh of seeds and one is coming to teach us the sh of and the other is coming to teach us ultimately again about the of say another interesting over here say the name of that there is a but there's no say now what does that mean if you 7:03 look Rashi. Rashi is in the second wide line. Second, I'm sorry. There's three sets of lines. There's short lines in Rashi, intermediate wide lines, and actual wide lines. This is in the intermediate wide line. Second line. 7:19 Second of all, so what this means is as follows that has the ability to convey to let me give you just a simple example of this. Imagine for a moment a person is invat. So let's say again I came in contact with a corpse and now what happens? I have a piece of meat on a bone. Now let's say there's a piece of the bone that doesn't have meat. I as the avatum touch the bone. What happens when you do 7:43 that? That automatically conveys tuma to the meat. Now what's the novelty in that? The novelty is am I touching meat? No. I'm touching the yad I'm touching the bone. But but conveyance of tuma to the yad by definition conveys tuma ultimately again to the boser. That's what it means that Now what's third of the intermediate lines down ultimately again so the Torah says as 8:13 follows that at the end of the day which which means that if the becomes that doesn't necessarily mean that the meat becomes again say what does that mean so what that means is as follows that remember in order for for a food item to become it has to be. What does that mean? On a most basic level, what has to happen? Contact with a liquid. If 8:37 the yacht comes in contact with the liquid but not the buser, the bus is not hook. So we'll say so what you see over here is as follows that a yad works in a conveyance capacity but not in all respects. So on one hand if the yad becomes ultimately the buser becomes but yet if the yad becomes ultimately the buser does not 9:01 says he disagrees says no not true the yad works for conveyance of tum and the yad works ultimately again for conveyance of as well what are they arguing about sorry so either they're arguing about logic They're arguing about about interpretation of a so it's possibly arguing about a 9:30 well so we've actually had this this I call this like danic as well which is how you so what this means is as follows if you have a that drussia obviously modifies that which immediately comes before it but does it modify ultimately again that which comes two places before. So just to illustrate this in this in in this particular context if you look at Rashi 9:53 Rashi says fourth of the intermediate wide lines says we'll say the discusses that discusses yados where we learn that yodos from the piece immediately preceding yados ultimately talks about tum the piece before that speaks about. So obviously helps to convey that's 10:23 everybody agrees. But if doesn't modify two pieces back that would talk about. So one opinion says yes a can be not only for that which immediately precedes it but that which precedes that which precedes it and therefore a yad will work for other opinion says no a modifies that which immediately comes before it but not which comes two places before it. So the says the other 10:46 possibility is arguing on one opinion says that ultimately again is the beginning of which makes sense because something can't become without and one opinion says ultimately again that is not say by the way I'll just well actually let's finish up there's a bright stat remember again is the opinion that says that works both 11:11 forum as well as as well as for the same way that there is a so and the same way that an item can doesn't become only once it's dislodged from the ground ultimately so too something cannot become until it's detached suggest let let's get resolution on this we Pas like so y 11:47 works both for as well as for tumot. So what that means practically like just say just imagine the piece of meat on a bone right and imagine that the meat does not extend to the bottom of the bone. Therefore you're holding on to the bone without touching the meat. Sal number one is if you're and you touch the bone you touch the yad the meat becomes tame. Furthermore, again, if the bone becomes wet, 12:12 that automatically means that the meat becomes wet as well. So that's how also has a tremendous because what does that say? What does that say? What that says is in life sometimes all you need to do is get yourself kind of exposed to the right type of exposures. Right? This is the wrong type of exposures. Right? So this is saying that yad works for tuma. Right? of that 12:36 bone becomes tame. Then ultimately even though you're not touching the meat, the meat becomes tame. Right? As long as the right exposures are in your orbit, sometimes just through spiritual osmosis, you could lift yourself up the same way that yad works to spread to yad works for as well. Even just putting yourself in the right circumstances, embed yourself with the right people. Expose 13:01 yourself to the right influences. Even if I'm not doing anything different sometimes just just same way that if theat is exposed it impacts the buser put yourself in the right situation and the positive exposures could lift up your in the as well says make okay so I say now Rav makes the following statements says there is no 13:28 for less than a now what does this mean look at rashiad So therefore again only works in a context where the food item is at least that's it. And share of an item only is impactful if you have a food item that's at least the size of a pool. Pool means a lentil. Pool means a lentil. So in other words, all of these 13:58 of for example like we just saw before a yad a yad spreading tumo or for that matter again a yad conveying tumo or a yad conveying only works if the food item is less is at least in size and share which we saw yesterday because it's possible that a share even has the ability to combine with the food item for the requisite cheer only works if we're talking about a that's at least 14:21 the size of a lentil says disagrees. He says not true. Not true. Applies even to a smaller even for less than a even less than a bas. This is actually a very interesting case. Listen to this case. You have two bones and on each of those bones on each of those bones is less than a kaz of meat. 14:53 You bring those bones into a home. Now it happens to be in those homes is a corpse is a corpse. Now I will say just to point out the part of the bone that's entering into the home is the part of the bone that doesn't have meat on it. 15:08 I.e. the yad. The yad. Right? So you're extending the yad of the bone into a home in which there is a corpse and only the yad part is in the house. The meat part is not in the house. What's so ultimately again if you look at Rash says where is actually the 15:36 rash and three lines from the bottom right I'm sorry just I I made a mistake the the the bones ultimately again are from a mace right the bones themselves are the tumas mace you're putting the bones bringing the bones into a house But you're bringing the part of the bone that doesn't have the flesh on it. So only that part of the bone. What's says 16:02 what's the idea over here? The idea of say so again imagine for a moment I'm bringing in two human bones with with corpse flesh on it. But the problem just is the parts of the bone that don't have the flesh are the parts that are coming under the roof. I'm bringing them into the house. So now there's a roof over those two parts of the bone. But again the parts of the bone that extend into the house are not the parts of the bone which have the flesh on it. What's the 16:27 says ultimately the home is why is the home to say why oh remember anytime you have corpse under a roof so that devolves upon anything and everything under that same roof. So interest again say now what's interesting about that what's interesting about this is that number one what you see over here is the 16:49 home is contracting corpse to from the from the not from the buser itself what else is interesting about this it's less than a right because remember again it's two halfim on two different bones sorry so again So, so Yehuda Benusa says, "I don't understand how can two how can two bones with half a kazhas each combine to 17:20 form a kazas of corpse flesh? How does that happen? How do they form a kayas? They're two independent things." Rashi says over here last over here the is not on right. Let's let's take it for granted that everyone agrees that remember as we saw before that the essentially operates as the buser right the we're building on our knowledge base what did we just established in the previous right we 17:52 pass what say that yad works for conveyance of and yad works for conveyance of which essentially means what when you touch the yad that is the equivalent of touching the buser good I can wrap my head around Now what you're telling me is something different which is so therefore again let's follow me with this case if I were to take if I had a bone right on that 18:16 bone was human flesh and there was a kaz human flesh and I were to extend that bone I extend that bone into a home under a roof so that only the bone part is under the roof the flesh is not what's that ultimately I've conveyed to us to us oh right it's as if the flesh the flesh has come underneath the roof that makes sense Because the is like the 18:39 baser I could wrap my head around that. What's the problem with this case? The problem with this case is I have two bones with what? Half a of each. And says there's no such thing as for less than a. So how does this work? 18:56 to which the Gimar says top of start how how is ultimately again going in establishing this case if he's talking about then the first case is problematic is problematic and if it's a sh case then ultimately again there's a problem with the one possibility ultim ultimately again that it's dealing with the one possibility is that it's a let's analyze 19:30 this if ultimately again we're talking about and ultimately the other possibility is sorry the other possibility ultimately again is that he's talking about and like disagrees he says no no we're actually talking about a case 19:57 And ultimately again he like incredible is actually introducing this idea that remember again what's what's the backdrop right what's what's the context of this we're going to have a raging what's raging does work with less than that that's our that's our fundamental sorry we've established say just again 20:21 sequential we've established that yad is the equivalent of past like therefore has the ability to convey and has the ability to convey yad is like now the shila is is there such a thing as right or does yad only work when there is a ultimately again of of that's our 20:45 fundamental incredible so we'll say so first of all you could see that the certainly slanting like that works even incredible Let's analyze a bit more. Let's analyze a bit more. Listen to this. So is a thigh bone. So you have a thigh bone of the animal that has a buser on it. 21:12 The buser drags everything. In other words, the buser enables everything ultimately again to become of on the thigh bone. Essentially what this means is it makes the thigh bone into a once the thigh bone is ultimately everything becomes says the say no you don't need a kaz you don't need kazer to make something into a yad rather what do you mean just a 21:39 lentil even if it's just the size of a lentil ultimately again it drags the entire thing into tuma let's say by the way I want to point out just the lush of gore Res is so interesting, right? Goes kula tuma. See say you know what happens when there's a little bit of tuma. A little bit of tuma. We often say to ourselves, ah, it's just a little bit of 22:02 tuma. What? What is a little bit of tuma? You know what has a little bit? A little bit of tuma does one thing. Drags you into a lot of tuma. That's just the way that life works. A little bit of tuma dra and say goeras. Goeras literally means drags. The imagery of dragging is I don't want to go there. 22:18 You know, we'll say all let's be honest, all of us like to dabble in a little bit of tum, but but but I just I just wanted to remain a little bit. I have no interest in a lot of tum, right? My stated interest is only in a little bit of tuma. That's okay. It's a beautiful interest. I mean, it's not good. But says, human, we're human beings. But it doesn't work that way. Dabble in a little and it'll drag you into alive. 22:44 Watch this. So this is this is seemingly our same right says if you have a thigh bone in order for that bone to become a yad you need a kaz of baser on it once he got a kazer then it drags the entire thigh bone into the status of a yad which means it contracts too much just like the ber no you don't need a rather what do you need ultimately even just 23:07 the pool right even just ultimately again the size of a lant of what how Does how does Rav ultimately again how does he establish this? If it's talking about then ultimately again there's the problem. 23:25 So how do we how do we how do we square this up? So it's like right or maybe he's talking about and reflecting the view ultimately again on the other says no the entire thing is talking about a second 23:51 but still say that there's a which is actually very interesting say this is fascinating qualifies this. You see when we looked at this right you have a thigh bone how much meat needed on the thigh bone in order to make the thigh bone into a yad. So remember again what did the say what did the say like a lentil I thought when reading this how do you read this you're like oh it's two 24:20 different lentil says no in fact really holds how much meat do you need on the thigh bone in order to make it a how much any amount so why do you say a lentil okay because once the say they need to say something they want to frame the mahocus symmetrically. So you're saying a shir, we'll say a shir, but the shear of a 24:45 lentil doesn't actually mean a lentil. What does the share of a lentil mean? What does it mean? Anything. Anything. So this is actually very interesting and and very helpful because again and by the way this act just want to point out this is why the way this was framed early with with seems to even make a little bit more sense, right? Because remember when we originally had this said 25:10 and said so in that formulation really what is saying is any amount any amount. So even in this case when say they don't literally mean a pool but rather again what they just mean is any amount of meat will make the will make the bone ultimately again into a yad. Incredible. 25:35 So said I don't think we're talking about I think we're talking about because ultimately again it talk spoke about the thigh that's the case that it chose which is more which is more sh than okay incredible again the outstanding we have over here is at the end of the day and what's amount of meat do you need on a yad in order to make it a yad rav says 26:00 you need a kazokan says is even less than a kazias similar mlo over here where you have the thigh bone interestingly enough in the in the brakes are talking about the thigh bone is not explicit are we looking at the thigh bone as a yacht we're looking at the thigh bone as a share but the is still the same says you need a kaz of meat ultimately again say you only need 26:24 the size of a lentil which it turns out that wasn't even about a lentil but rather again was actually talking about any amount So see first is clearly talking about second maybe or maybe the seems to be going both ways although the seems to end off that it's really talking more about sh than it is about say what I want to 26:48 point out is we begin to suggest keep in mind so less than both that supplies both by okay let's go says, so take a look at Rash for just a moment. Is in the widest lines on the bottom. 27:24 Now we'll say, now watch this. Now we're going back and we're analyzing the position of the. So remember again when it came to the thigh bone said in order to make the thigh bone again it's not clear we're talking about we're talking about said but either way said even the amount of a lentil. So now we're going now we're getting into it says when the when the say a lentil 27:48 they mean a lentil that's a that's a says no it's not a shear it's not a she rather again said that just in other words lentil is another way of saying what another way of saying any amount any you need some buser how much buser any amount of buser so says how can you say it's not a vakatan kap But one 28:12 second there's a way to say just say any amount if the are going out of their way to say a lentil that really sounds like a to which the like we said before no it's quite possible that really they hold any amount any amount I so why say a pool because once you have to answer up in some way so how do you answer up like a lentil but like 28:38 a lentil is really just an expression for any amount ultimately again ultimately again is if it's only the amount of a pool which just means that he holds that if it's a lental amount it does not create any type of yad or or reality so is very interesting however however 29:06 if there's a piece of meat the size of kitten Rashi says over Here says first I'm sorry go back to the previous Rashi you see that second wide line. So first says as follows that when it comes to the sh of a pool of of a pool ultimately that's not a sh that's not a shmer. Now 29:34 why not? Rashi says So for example is the is like a pod right. So the pod in which a pool in which a pool of which are pool are lentils right versus kitten which are legumes right. So the pool ultimately grows in a that shvet that pod is not considered to be a sh why is it not considered to be a sh this 30:03 is very interesting. supposed is very interesting. So says like this when it comes to the pod of a of a of a of a of a lentil of a pool ultimately that's not a shmer. Why is it not a shmer? Because the lentil doesn't need it. However, again, however, when it comes to the ultimately again of legumes, that is a look at the 30:40 next. So, apparently with legumes, legumes are much smaller. So, in order that they don't get mixed up with a whole bunch of solas, you want the pods intact. Remember again a sh is a shom is something which protects and ultimately again is desired. So therefore, Elizabeth making a very interesting distinction over here when it comes to the pod of a legume 31:09 sorry of a of a lentil of a pool of a pool ultimately again that's not a share but the pod of of legumes the pod of of kney of kitten that is a sh because you want it says at the end of the day we're actually not talking about the ps rather we're talking about the stems and we're not talking about rather we're talking about handles. 31:38 So what does it mean? Because you want you want to handle it says no no you want the stem because the stem is necessary in order to handle these items. So we had this yesterday. What does this teach me? This teaches me that the only things that act as a sh are the things that are part of the item when it is initially planted. 32:06 So therefore again a item is only considered to be a sh if it's part of the item when it's in its planted state. What's the example of that? So wheat in its chaff and lentils ultimately again in their shell. Say you see over here that the shell is a sh to which the says no no no no burri shiny that's different if you have a complete lentil with its shell 32:32 then that's considered to be a burri that's considered to be a self-contained fully contained entity and of course that'll have its own as a very interesting question over here so this is a very interesting case do they go ahead and combine with each other now what Does this mean take a look at 32:59 remember again we're talking about what's back the size of an egg? What else have we established? We've established that a sh combines with the food item in order to go ahead and form the requisite shar. What if you have a food item that has two sham? Do two sham combine with the food item to form the requisite shar. 33:21 That's the case. If we're talking about two shim, one on top of the other does one sh go ahead and there's such a thing like that that one sh is on top of another shipos. This is very interesting. There are three um three kipos three not shells. 33:42 Um is it shells? Shells. Okay. Three shells. It's a better word for a kipa. Peels. Peels. Right. Three three peel peel shells, right? Peel peel like shells. Layers. Good. There are three kipas, right? Yeah. Three three three layers. Three kipas. Three shells on on an onion. Listen to this. Pimus the inner one. 34:06 So this is very interesting. The innermost shell whether it's complete means perforated ultimately again combines with the onion for the requisite of the form. the middle shell, right? The middle layer. 34:23 If it's intact, fully intact, then it combines. But if it's perforated, it doesn't. The outer one, the outer shell itself, right? The outer ultimately again doesn't combine at all. Doesn't combine at all. So is acting a different case. He says ultimately we're talking about the sh of a food that was split. 34:49 What does that mean? Take a look at Rashi. Rashi is in the second short line. So, here's the bigger says, what happens if you have literally a let's go with the first idea of Rashi. You have a food item that is the size of an egg and then what happens? And you have a shmer on it. Then you split the food item in half, right? So now the food itself is but if you combine the sh with it, it 35:27 becomes the size of a in that case does it form the requisite sh or not? Since this share doesn't protect this other food item, the right is split split into two and the other one doesn't doesn't protect the one it's not connected to. So ultimately they don't combine or maybe since one since each one protects its own food ultimately again it can't bear. Okay. 35:59 So again, so remember our overarching question over here is the case of two sh and again what exactly is the case of twoaritness ultimately again is in the case of a pool and in the case of kit. This is going back to the pod to the pod case. 36:25 Why? Because apparently again a person wants the use ultimately again of the kitten pad but doesn't care about the use of the pool pad. We're not talking about actually talking about stems as we said before and actually it's not a question of sh of what we just said before and what does it mean? 36:48 We're talking about the use of the stock of the stems themselves. So we say this keep quoting. So remember again say what combines ultimately again with an item to be its anything that's taken out with the item when it's initially planted is considered to be part of the item. So for example, the wheat in its chaff or in it, you 37:12 know, it's husk and even lentils in their pod. So you see from here that the pod is part of the lentil ultimately and we're not really talking about the pod really. We're talking about the stem and we're not talking about we're talking about over here. 37:34 This is very interesting. We'll call it the spine, right? the spine of the P we're talking about. So Bishma says okay let's analyze this for just a moment. If you look at Rashi Rashi says over here almost almost right across right actually right across Rashi. 37:56 So we're talking about over here where the kernels literally again are like embedded in the spine of the stalk. Soar said I understand the upper kernels require the lower kernels to support them. 38:12 But why do the lower kernels require the upper ones? What what benefit do they serve? We're not rather we're talking about everything that is situated in one row. And when the kernels are situated in one one row because they're tight they're they're they're pressed tightly against one another they hold each other in place. And if you take out one that impacts the other one says, 38:36 is there such a thing like that that you would have an eggs volume of food in one in one row of kernels? That seems to be some pretty big kernels in one row. Say gives a beautiful answer. Yes, yes, you would have it with the wheat of Ben. Sorry. 38:58 So it's like what's the issue? What does it mean? Rashi says so the talks about the idea that there was one year where there was such plentiful rainfall which is actually quite fascinating. Say you know init fascinating they're predicting major rainstorms over the weekend which is like unprecedented. They're expecting rain in the summertime init which is 39:23 fascinating. So the gimar says over here. So the says that in the days of Shim they had such bountiful rainfall. Listen to this that they had they had wheat kernels. Wheat kernels. Rashi says over here literally wheat kernels the size of kidneys. Size of kidneys. So yeah you could have a row of wheat kernels ultimately again that you would have the 39:48 size of a bea. Fascinating. Now that we have this, okay, so now that we're talking about, so you could even have one kernel ultimately again that is the size of a Okay, so say let's analyze this a bit more. So let's go back. 40:07 Remember again the three open-ended questions that we still have is question number one for a share or for a yad do you need uh do you need a kazayas or even less than a kaz on on the on the yad in order for the yad ultimately again to function like the baser question number two for do you need a kaz or less than a kazay those are two 40:30 open and then question number three is what if you have two shrim ultimately again can they form together. Can they combine together ultimately to form the requisite shar? So we say let's at least begin the next if you have two bones two bones and say this is actually the case that we had right on right this is the case of of I have two human bones right and on each 40:56 of those bones is half a of flesh what happens say now what happens I extend those bones into the home now what part of the bone is in the house the part of the bone that doesn't have the flesh doesn't have the flesh on it. So now the home serves as a roof on top of those two bones. 41:16 Ultimately again the home is from the ultimately again how can how can two how can two bones form the requisite shift. Remember these are two separate bones with half of his eyes says you know they'll stop over for today we'll pick up with I just want to point out tomorrow tomorrow we're going to get resolution on on on all of these open items we're also tomorrow just coming attractions we have a fantastic 41:45 uh fillin case and stamp case say case as well coming attractions I know it's a little bit of a confusing tomorrow but raam tomorrow resolution tomorrow everyone All right, have a great
