Today's stuff is Chulin Daf Nun Aleph.
And we are 18 lines from the bottom of
Daf Nun Aleph Bet, the two dots. Rebbe
Yehuda Omer, "Bigdola V'chulu." Today's
Daf is being learned as a z'chus refuah
shleimah for Chava Miriam bas Malkah
Frieda and [ __ ] ben Chaya Leah.
Today's Daf is also being learned l'iluy
nishmas Yenta bas Rebbe [snorts] Moshe.
So, we're moving along in Perek Eilu
Treifos
discussing the stomachs, lashon rabbin,
of
an animal
in the context
of the laws of eilu treifos. So, at the
end of yesterday's Daf, we spoke about
the karas or the kores.
>> [snorts]
>> Specifically, the karas hapnimi. Where
the Mishnah says that part of the karas
is extremely sensitive. Achrei de kach,
if there would be a nekav the size of a
mashu, that already would render it a
treifah. What about the rest of the
karas? What about the quote-unquote
karas not hapnimi but hachitzona? So,
the Mishnah said that's a lot less
sensitive. And there the halacha is if
it was nikra rov of the karas, then it
would be considered a treifah. So, as it
relates to the karas hapnimis, that's if
it's just nikfa. As it relates to the
karas hachitzona, that requires not
nikfa nikra. How much of it has to be
torn? It would have to be the majority
of it. And then the Mishnah mentioned
the opinion of one of the sages, Rebbe
Yehuda Omer, "Hagidola, it's not so
simple." As it relates to the karas
hachitzona, in the event that the animal
is a big animal, which possibly you
would think means like a shor, a big
animal, so then the halacha is that as
long as the tear is a tefach, that would
already render it a treifah. V'hak'tana,
and in the event that it's a k'tana,
then beruba, then it would be to'i in
roiv. So, whereas according to the
Tana Kama, according to the chachamim in
the Mishna, when you deal with the kares
achi tzoina, we don't care how big or
small the animal is. We don't care how
big or small the kares is. If it's nikra
ruba, it's considered a treifa, and if
it's not nikra ruba, it's not considered
a treifa. In the world of Rabi Yehuda,
it actually depends. Not all animals
were created equally as it relates to
treifos. In the event that it's a gdola,
so then you don't need roiv. Then, as
long as it's a tefach, that in and of
itself is going to be okay. Today's daf
is going to begin with the statement of
an Amora who said a little bit of a
peirish
into what exactly Rabi Yehuda meant when
he said gdola versus ktana. So, Rabi
Yehuda omer gdola omer Rabi Yamin bar
Yefes omer Rabi Elozar, "Lo gdola gdola
mamash." When Rabi Yehuda said gdola, he
didn't mean gdola mamash. So, what does
it mean gdola mamash? So, Rashi says,
"Gdola she be gdolas." He didn't mean
the biggest animal that there is. "V'lo
ktana ktana mamash." And ktana wasn't
mean ktana she be ktanas. Ela, so what's
the definition of gdola? What's the
definition of ktana? "Koshe nikra
b'tefach." In the event that a tefach
would be torn, "V'lo ihavei ruba." And
it would not constitute a roiv. "Zohi
sheshoninu bigdola b'tefach." That's
what Rabi Yehuda is referring to when he
says
by a gdola, the shiur is going to be a
tefach. "Ruba v'lo ihavei tefach." What
would be if roiv of it was torn and it's
not a tefach? Well, that means that the
kares is pretty small. "Zohi sheshoninu
b'ktana b'ruba." That's what he meant
when he said that in the event that it's
small, it's going to be roiv. In other
words, when Rabi Yehuda said gdola
ktana, he doesn't care so much a big
huge animal versus a small animal.
That's not what he is zeroing in on.
What Rabi Yehuda is trying to say is
that once you have a tear the size of a
tefach, at that point it's automatically
going to be a treifa. You're not going
to need a roiv. The whole shiur of is in
the event that the animal so small so
that you have rov where it's less than a
tefach. I'll set them out. It's rov. You
can't
get
this animal to be treated like a kosher
animal with rov if it was already nikra.
But, in the event that the animal has a
tear that's a tefach and that tefach
doesn't constitute a rov. Why? Because
it's a quote-unquote gedolah. Gedolah
should be gedolah no, just means it's
big to the point that a tefach makes up
less than rov. The whole thing could be
a two and a half tefach, but that sheer
of a tefach is going to be less than a
rov. Halacha is that two would be a
trip. So, whereas according to the tan
akama, the sheer is always rov,
according to Rabi Yehuda, it's going to
be rov. However,
to the extent that it hits a tefach, at
that point even if it's not a rov, it's
going to So, the bottom line is you can
never have a tear more than a tefach in
the world of Rabi Yehuda. Says the Ruba
of Rabi tefach shita. So,
Rabi Yehuda said two things, right? He
said in the event that it's
uh gedolah then the sheer is going to be
a tefach. In the event it's a ketana,
then it's going to be be rov. And Rabi
Niman by Yafis explained in the name of
Rabi Lozer what exactly Rabi Yehuda was
referring to. So, he said that the
gedolah doesn't mean mamesh, but rather
what it means is kosher nikra but tefach
lo yavi ruba. And what does the ketana
mean? The ketana means in the event
where you have a ruba lo yavi tefach.
Right? So, if it's ruba lo yavi tefach
at that point the worst case is that
part of Rabi Yehuda is essentially the
shita acharonim. So, that acharei shita,
why did Rabi Yehuda, why does Rabi Niman
by Yafis Rabi Lozer need to explain that
part of the equation? Isn't that
included in the shita of the tan akama?
Now, what of the Gemara is pshita.
Pshita it's the pshita of the Tana Kama.
It's a pshita. So Rashi says it actually
is pshita the ruba kakula. Cuz being
that ruba is kakula once it's nikra
ruba, at that point it's as if you don't
have it. And if you don't have it, it's
it's for sure pshita. But the Gamara's
kasha is is that why does Rabbi Yehuda
need to repeat the rub of v'lo havi
tefach part of the equation?
That is essentially the sheet of the
Tana Kama.
It's pshita and the Gamara says a very
surprising teretz. Like sricha. I'll
tell you why Rabbi Yehuda felt he had to
say it. It's talking about the havi
tefach b'masha. As a machlokes Rashi,
Tosafos b'shem Rabbenu Tam,
had a long pushka on this Gamara. We're
going to learn shitas Rashi even though
it's a very surprising shita. And that
is it's talking about a situation where
it was a tefach b'masha. Had there been
another masha of tear, at that point the
tear would have been a a full tefach. So
the shear was less than a tefach. It was
roiv. So roiv even if it's less than a
tefach.
Rub of v'lo havi tefach. Zu isha sh'ninu
b'ktana b'ruba. But if it would have
torn a drop more, at that point it would
have been a tefach. Mao d'teima, I would
have had this wild havah minah. Adam
b'ruba tefach v'lo havi treifah. Being
that it's so close to being a tefach, so
maybe we're not going to view it as a
treifah until it tears that extra tefach
or that extra masha that makes it a
tefach. Masha v'lo havi that's the
chiddush of rub of v'lo havi tefach.
Even if the v'lo havi tefach is off by a
masha, a filo v'lo havi rub of v'lo havi
tefach that's the middle halacha.
Tosafos says I never heard such svara in
my whole life. You're telling me that
ruba kakula. You're telling me that the
shear should be roiv. But you know, your
roiv is so close to a tefach you might
as well round it off to a tefach and at
that point when you get the tefach now
we'll have this conversation. Why are we
talking when it's uh
$99.99?
Add a penny it'll be $100. Then uh
we'll have this conversation. Tosafos
can't even fathom what this svara would
be. Again, very inconsistent with the
svaras of the way uh Gamarahs and
Rishonim and Acharonim usually operate,
I and some of the Rishonim say
in the event that the
has a hole and the hole was the size of
a sela, a coin, treifa would be
considered a treifa. Why?
This is all in
where Rabbi Yehuda holds that a tefach,
even if it's less than in the
would be considered a treifa.
Says
in the name of
if there's a round hole the size of a
sela, you should have that figure with
one theory of a sela. So you got to do a
little math, pi, right? Get involved in
all the geometry
of circles, but the point is if there's
a hole the size of a sela, that means
it's the equivalent there of of a
tefach. What does it mean empty motekh?
If you would straighten out, if you
would pull the circle and turn it into
just a regular size hole, what you would
end up with is a tefach. Oh, a tefach,
that's considered a treifa.
They made the Gneiva. He said, "I heard
from Gneiva
says I even remember where I was. I was
on the bridge that's near Nehardea." And
he explained to me that this mesorah
that he was mekabel from Ravasi, niktera
kasela is considered a treifa. It's
kasela ksheira, yes kasela treifa. So
even though the words sound like niktera
kasela treifa, he explained to me that
if it's exactly a sela, it's actually
going to be kosher. If it's a little bit
more than a sela, that's when you're
going to have a problem. The kama yes
ami kasela, how big is yes ami kasela?
Now it sounds like this sheer of niktera
kasela was supposed to be explanatory.
Right? You're not supposed to ask
on the muscle. If you have to ask on the
muscle, then the muscle didn't really
serve you well. But I guess if you were
there, you knew what it was. But these
halachas travel from place to place and
from generation to generation. So maybe
later on or that lived in a different
geographic area, so they heard this
niktera kasela. Okay, so if you know
what a quarter looks like, so you can be
mam khashit. But, you know, I live in a
whole different world. We use credit
cards here, so I don't even know what a
seller looks like. I haven't seen a coin
in 10 years. So, the question is, what
exactly does it mean niktar kasela?
Right? What is the definition of seller?
And not seller, yasmi kasela, because
kasela we said is really shera. So, what
is the definition of yasmi kasela? Amrav
Yosaif, Amrav Yosaif said going to the
island class kashiosa. It's a hole
that's big enough for three date pits to
be able to go through. Now, you don't
have to know what a date pit is, but
that's for extra credit. But, either
way, so if it's big enough that three
date pits can go through, bitsi por.
Now, if it has a little bit of fruit on
it, right? So, after you finish a fruit,
unless you really, really, really are a
madaktik and baltashris, and you know
how to get every last little
bang for your buck, so you're going to
have a little bit of fruit that's still
going to be attached to the pit. So, if
it's bitsi por, if it's still somewhat
covered with some of the meat of the
fruit, then bituchka. So, then as long
as it can clutch its way through, that
would be this year. But, lo it si por,
it has to be a sheer where if it doesn't
have any fruit, berafka, then it's going
to be able to go berafka, it's going to
be able to come and go very, very
freely, says the Gemara of Hemsis and
Base Hakoisis. So, we now turn our
attention
to the next two stomachs of the animal,
the Hemsis and the Base Hakoisis,
respectively. So, the Mishna said that
as it relates to the Hemsis and the Base
Hakoisis, shinikful achos, in the event
that they have a a nekiv, and the nekiv
is lachos, meaning you could see it
mibachos, the [snorts] halacha is that
would render it into a treifa. Now, the
tiny bit of background that we need to
understand the Hemsis and the Base
Hakoisis for
this next Gemara that we're going to
learn is that the wall of the Hemsis and
the base of
was a a double wall. Right, specifically
the base of is what we're going to focus
on. So, it had this double layered wall.
So, when you talk about there being a
hole in the wall, so you have to know is
it the inner wall or is it the outer
wall? And it's water there is mocking to
say that if the hole is in the inner
wall left after it would render it a
treif because as long as the outer wall
is intact, so the outer wall would be a
schmira, it would protect and as a
result maybe it wouldn't be an issue.
Says the I tell him about the machat and
he says by the base of
in the event that a machat a needle was
found in the thickness of the wall of
the base of
we said
if it's only from one side and what does
it mean from one side? It means
if it's the inner part it's going to be
kosher.
If it's on the inner part and on the
outer part treif it's going to be a
treif. Why if it's only the inner part
is it going to be kosher? Because it has
the schmira it's being protected from
the outer part. If it goes through and
through it's on both sides. So, if you
were inside of you would see the hole
and if I was on the outside of the base
of I would see the hole. So, if it's
that's when it's going to be a treif.
Stating that it's not always considered
a treif. There is a little bit of a
analysis that you can do a bedika to
determine
in the event that the needle had a
little bit of blood on it, well then
then
you know for sure the
needle got there before the shrita. The
animal was alive hence the blood and if
that's the case it's obviously going to
be a treif. If
however you couldn't find the
then
then you know it happened after the
shrita and here's the point even if you
have a neck of on both sides which
ordinarily would make it a treif, but if
there's no blood that's actually a a
siman muvhak that this took place after
the shrita. If it took place after the
shrita you don't have to worry. So, this
is one of the interesting things that
repeat itself a lot in Perek Elu
Treifos. Number one, what's a treifa?
Number two, even if this is a treifa, do
you know for sure it was there lifnei
shchita? So, that when you shachted it,
you shachted a treifa? Maybe this is
something that came about after the
fact. Right? There's so much tinkering
with the animal. It's in this huge
manufacturing facility. There's shlacht
toys. I mean, you know what goes on.
There's blood and knives and screaming
and coilas. And there's a lot of people
working there. It's a massive plant. So,
you could see why things could happen
after the shchita. That's always the
other question you want to ask yourself.
So, what the braisa is saying is that as
it relates to the definition of treifa
with regards to the base akoises, it
would have to be mishneh atzladem. If
the hole is only on the inside, it's
protected on the outside. Inside
outside, that's when you got yourself
into an issue. Additionally, there is a
bedika, very basic bedika that you could
do after the fact that may get you out
of the situation even if the machas on
both sides. And that is lo nimtza dam
acharita. Cuz if you don't find any
blood, so what do you mean?
Somebody punctured the animal in this
way, had it and it bled. Oh, it entered
the gof after the animal was dead
already. Oh, it was dead. That's why it
didn't bleed. And it's so clear bi yadoa
shalach shchita, even though we're
dealing with the risas over here, we're
allowed to rely on that experiment 100%,
says the braisa. So, he glid pi amako.
What would be if
there was a scab that was around this
area that the hole is bi yadoa. So, then
you know shishlishi yom acharita ne'eman
is a clue that it happened while the
animal was alive and it had the vibrancy
and the potency to be able to
develop this scab, but it must have been
that this issue was already there three
days prior. Lamai nafka mina? Who cares
if it happened one minute earlier? If it
happened three minutes earlier? So,
[snorts] as we'll see from the next line
of gemara, it's negaya choshe mishpat.
It's negaya. This is a fascinating
halacha. In the event that somebody went
and he bought this animal, and then he
found out that it was a treifa, he might
want to get his money back.
In the event that he checked and he
finds out that this animal has a market
in the base of curses and there's even a
scab, well, that means that whatever had
happened happened already three days
earlier. So, if this buyer bought within
that three-day window, he could actually
claim
and he'd be able to get his money back.
Let's say you don't have this scab.
That's how you know we're dealing with
over here. How often are you going to
invoke these words here?
In that case,
you would have to prove that it was
there three days earlier or not and
assuming you won't be able to prove it.
>> [snorts]
>> So,
the moral says, I don't understand.
You're telling me now that this is
incredible, incredible cooler when it
comes to traces and that is if you see a
hole and there's no blood, oh, be a
How come I never heard about this until
now? We're almost making our way through
the list of all the traces and the
mission of the beginning of the and this
is the first time I'm hearing about it,
says the
Why is it that when it comes to all the
other
no one ever heard such
In other words,
even if there's no
but whoever that ever is, right? It's
not clear who's asking this question.
It's just a price of a tomorrow. It's a
but the bottom line is
that I forgot to like a lot of money.
How come when it comes to the
tomorrow says I'm going to tell you why.
When it comes to other uh
there's nowhere for the to to go. So,
you want to know why you don't see the
to go? So, you want to know why you
don't see
We didn't want to see them on the walls
of the animal. You want to see it in the
fats of the animal. You're not going to
find it anywhere. How we here given the
We're dealing with this
Here you're dealing with a a needle. The
needle would have a little bit of blood
on it, some dried out blood. So, in the
Gemara, you're dealing with a necked
that involves a machat, so then
it would be true, which is exactly what
this person is talking about. A regular
necked in the raya or that doesn't
involve any uh
physical matter for the blood to be able
to plant itself on. So, over there,
there wouldn't be any siman one way or
the other. Amora Rav Safra Rav Safra
told Abaye "Chazi Mar."
So, now we know who Mar is, right? Rav
Safra is talking to Abaye. Abaye is the
rebbe. Right, the word Mar in Chazal
means rebbe. So, "Chazi Mar." Rav Safra
tells Abaye, "Take a look, rebbe." "Heit
sumra banit as sumra rav." There was a
certain younger man who came from Eretz
Yisrael. "For amrin he said Rav Avira
Shmani." He said, "My name is Rav
Avira." "For amrin he said, "Maiseh was
a story about a man named Rebbi machatin
and says "Be it be that all of a sudden
a macha,
right? A person carrying the machat
>> [laughter]
>> that was in the walls of the Beis
Haknesses only on one side. You're only
able to see him bifnim." And walked in
to the Beis Hamedrash of Rebbi. And
Rebbi took a look at the Beis Haknesses
for the time full and he said it's a
treif. Now, when Abaye heard this, Abaye
wanted to meet this person. He wanted to
get a little bit more information. So,
the Gemara says "Shalach lei." So, Abaye
sent for Rav Avira. "Lei aslei l'gabei."
Rav Avira did not go to Abaye. "Aslei
l'gabei." Abaye says, "Okay, you've got
the umatzasi tamim."
Sometimes you have to follow the halacha
if you want to be able to get what it is
you're trying to get. So, he goes to Rav
Avira "And Avakoya Yigro." And when he
came to Rav Avira, right? They told him
where he was staying. He looks up and
Rav Avira is standing on the roof.
"Amars Abaye tells Rav Avira, "Nechos
mar benaisi." Can you please come down?
I want to talk to you."
"Lei nachos." He says uh "No, I can't
come down." "Saluk l'gabei." So, uh
Abaye said, "No worries." So, Abaye
starts, you know, climbing the ladder or
climbing the steps. He goes up. "Amarl
lei." And he looks at him and he says um
"I have to ask you a question." Says,
"Okay, you know, am I in trouble? Is
everything all right?" Says, "Yeah, it's
fine." "Amali gufa d'uvei heicha hava."
"I heard from Rav Safra my town." They
you told him over a story that it was a
macha and he says by kosis means that
you were only able to see it from the
inside and it appeared in front of the
great Rebbe, Rebbe Yehuda Nasi, the
tarfa, and he said it's a treifa. Can
you give me a little bit more
information?" Amalie said Rebbe Yehuda
said, "Yes, mach the kinesis I know."
>> [snorts]
>> He said that I'm a mach the kinesis.
Rashi says that he was somebody that
used to you know take care of the
talmidim. I used to spend time in the
base madrash. Like I made Rebbe Rava and
I worked in the presence of Rebbe Yehuda
Nasi. Avraham Tzipora and Rebbe Yosi
Madah Yishmael ben Natan and Avraham
Tzipora and Rebbe Yosi Madah they were
sitting in front of him. Bust lifnei
Rebbe Macha and he says base kinesis
and this exact story happened. The half
Rebbe and what Rebbe did was
he took the base kinesis. He started
playing with it. He flipped it this way,
that way matza koida dam and he found
there was blood on it. The tarfa and he
went and he made it into a treifa. For
on that and he said in ein sham dam if
there was in ein sham macha if there was
no macha then koida dam in ein. Then how
could there have been dam? Must be there
was a a macha. If there was a macha
that's why he went ahead and he made it
into a treifa. In other words, he told
him that the story was is that Rebbe saw
blood and because he saw blood he
understood that this hole must have been
me base sodem because the macha must
have came from the outside and it must
have penetrated and created this hole
and it was for that reason he went ahead
and he was tarfa. Do you remember the
story? The story was Rav Safra tells
Abaya that Rav Avira came and he said my
so Rebbe Macha base kinesis echod tarfa.
And Abaya was very taken aback because
we know the masora is if it's only me
side echod it's not a treifah. Has to be
Beitzah Shatam. So, Abaye flags down
this Rabbeinu he gets to him finally,
little bit of drama. They're having this
conversation rooftop, and finally he
tells him, "You want to know what the
story was? There was blood there. And
because there was blood, the Rebbe
understood that it must have been a real
neckev Beitzah Shatam." So, Abaye turns
to Rabbeinu, he said, "Tarei Tarei Lo
Gavra." He said, "I was so much riach to
come to you because I thought I was
going to hear something novel, and it
turns out my Mesorah it turns out
whatever your maiseh was is a Meforesh
Mishnah. Hametz to Beitzah Koiseishin Lo
Lo Chutz. The Halacha is, it's
considered a treifah. And being that
there's a Keirah Tamah Korchach, the
neckev was on the other side as well.
There's no news here, there's no story
here.
I'm not even sure why I ever came. Nafal
Min HaGag.
Min HaGag. Going back to the Mishnah.
So, the Mishnah mentioned another one of
the treifos is that in the event that an
animal would fall off the roof, right?
So, an animal fell from the Gag. So, we
go from Rabbeinu and Abaye being on the
roof,
Baruch Hashem, nothing happened. And now
we're talking about an animal that on
the roof, and unfortunately that story
didn't end as well. But this animal was
Nafal Min HaGag. So, the Halacha is,
even if you don't see anything that
necessarily makes us think that there's
a treifah over here, a feel of Hakki,
the Halacha is, we have to be Chayish
Bitarafus. So, Nafal Min HaGag in and of
itself is a reason to assume that there
might be an issue of treifah. Now, from
here until the end of today's daf
through the beginning of tomorrow's daf,
we're going to deal with this general
Halacha. Not to give it away, but just
one spoiler alert that's going to emerge
from learning the Gemara is that if an
animal falls off a roof, we don't
necessarily automatically assume that
this animal's going to be a treifah. Oh,
it fell off a roof, boom, must be
there's something wrong in one of its
internal organs, and as a result, you're
never going to be able to eat this
animal. That's not true.
The first thing we do is is we take a
look at how the animal responds, and
we'll see some of the Meforesh Halachas.
If the animal gets up, what if it gets
up and it walks? What if it uh tried to
get up?
What if it thought about trying to get
up? A lot of permutations, as we'll see.
But the bottom line is, so we look at
the reaction of the animal. Another huge
factor is that if 24 hours pass and this
animal, as far as we're concerned, is
doing okay, well, at that point we're
going to assume that whatever happened
didn't uh really happen and as a result
everything is going to be fine. So, with
that uh little bit of a spoiler, so
after he'll get a mara, enough women and
gaga, an animal falls off a roof, that's
high level a reason to be concerned.
Omar Rav Huna, Rav Huna said some
interesting halachas, if people are my
love, somebody left his animal on the
roof, uba, and then he came back and
mitzal mata and he found it on the
ground, what he do? He took the
elevator, he's trying to figure out how
the animal came down. In chos demishum
risuke avorim, so even though it seems
like he must have jumped, but at the
same time you don't necessarily assume
that something happened to its avorim,
right? Risuke avorim means that they
avorim got dislodged, they got
punctured, it was torn, right? You don't
assume that something necessarily
happened. And um the reason is
that even though, as far as we're
concerned, the animal probably uh took a
spring, but he probably did it in a
methodical way, he probably did it in a
way where he knew he wasn't going to
injure himself, he had a safe, smooth
landing and as a result, even though
there are things to potentially be
concerned about, we're not going to be
worried. Who got you that? I believe it
was Ravina. Ravina owned a goat. The
chaza chosla, and one day Ravina's goat
is on the roof of the house and he looks
through the
window that he has and um he sees some
barley. And the barley was something
that really, really tempted the goat.
So, it was like a skylight, he's looking
down at the window, he says, I have to
get my hands on that uh on that barley.
So, what did he do? Dogar, he jumped not
from the la'ara, and he fell to the
ground
and after this happened wasn't sure is
this like a
is not enough
and he comes to his great Rebbe his
mentor of
and
told him with a
when said that if somebody
leaves his animal on the roof and then
he finds it on the bottom you don't have
to be because we assume that the animal
acted with intention with
and he did everything the way he was
supposed to do it. Is it
is it meaning what's the
how you do it in this
>> [laughter]
>> is it because we assume that when the
animal came down it it clawed its way
down on the side of the wall and as a
result it was able to make it down
properly. Is
it something to latch on to so you
right so it knew how to make its way
down well if that's the case Leslie
over here this is a free fall yeah no
way
right there's no proverbial ladder can
hold on to the side of a mountain or
something.
>> [snorts]
>> So if that's the case here you would
have to be concerned or you don't know
said maybe that's not the of
but maybe what he meant was
an animal is not going to jump unless it
assesses the situation properly and he
knows that he can do it. Well if that's
the case
then you would assume this is going to
be okay either way comes
holding a goat that just took a nose
dive and he has a whole
hero a in his
home
to
he said this is a
mission
immediately picked one of the two sides
of the hero
and he gave him the says
his house they own the ship
and one day it was walking with slapping
its leg
said I should grow in an after
I think that the reason this is
happening is it could be I maybe it's
something's wrong with its foot that's
not feeling well but don't necessarily
assume that because it's slapping its
leg that this means this animal has an
hour to live and that it's a treif.
There's no reason to assume that.
He said
he said how do you know maybe there's
something wrong with its spinal cord
maybe something very serious happened.
Something more says but cool they would
bite again
right he turned out being right but
even though
even though said that but
as a result this is not something you
have to worry about. You know the vet
says what did the hypochondriac write on
his tombstone? I told you so. Right
sometimes you get it right but in
reality it's like
this is not something that you
necessarily have to worry about.
What happens if you have
says what happens if you have
so these male sheep like rams and
they're beating each other up and
so you have these rams they're going at
it and you have to assume now that you
know somebody tore an ACL in one of
these little scuffles. So that's the
question here. Said
no
in
interesting so another cool from
in the world of treif. The first
in the animal
in
here too so
in
says
and even though these
animals are walking around limping
they're in pain that fits in right they
look the look but similar
reason they have a little bit of a fever
yeah their body temperature I mean,
their heart rate is uh pumping, but at
the same time, you don't necessarily
have to assume that they're dying.
Says the Gamorah is stating that enough
for the iron rather hash you know. In
the event that, you know, they were
playing the tackle version of this
sport, if they actually were on the
ground, well, at that point, oh, if
their mom is getting bulldozed by
linebackers, that situation, then
already there's a shiver of treif. So,
I'm going to Manashe. Manashe said,
"Honey, give me the gun with the gun off
of you." Another very interesting
halacha. In the event that Ganovim come
and they steal
sheep. In chosheshin misum riskei varum.
You have to be worried about riskei
varum. So, let's uh work on the visual
here for a second. The Ganov comes into
the barn and he starts taking sheep,
right? He has a whole getaway car on the
other side and he starts taking sheep
and he's throwing them over the over the
fence. Another one and another one and
another one. Well, these sheep are being
tossed literally. So, there's reason to
assume that if one of these sheep land
in the wrong way, you know, it might
have a little riskei varum. see why they
might need a chiropractor after this.
So, the question is do you have to be
choshesh enough to be choshesh? So,
Manashe said something very interesting.
He said, "Ain chosheshin misum riskei
varum." You know why? Cuz kishati lohu.
So, you have to be a Ganov to appreciate
this, but kishati lohu,
when they would throw them amos nayu
shati lohu. They would throw them in a
way where they would land in a position
where they're ready to to run, to fly,
right? Because at some point there's
going to be a chapsam
here. Remember the dog that protects all
the sheep? Well, he finds he's not going
to be happy. So, there's going to be a
situation. So, they throw it in a way
where it's actually going to have a safe
landing. Ke echad l'rato kamayu. So,
like this they should be able to run.
Ah, adrin. Oh, here's the interesting
halacha. But, what would happen if these
Ganovim, right after they steal, they
have the hair of teshuvah and they
realize, "You know something, we
shouldn't be doing this. What are we
doing?" Shuv ya mechud k'dei mis'ascha.
So, then they take the animals and
actually I gave it away a little bit.
When they throw it back, we
and the reason is no, no, no, take that
whole story back. Actually, in the event
that they throw back, then we Why we
cuz when you throw it back, you're not
so sensitive to what's going on.
That's how if they threw it back was
they heard the dogs coming, right? Guys
are coming out with rifles.
You take the sheep, you throw it, you
don't care about safe landings, you're
worried about your own landing. Then you
start running as fast as you could.
But if the reason they threw the animal
back was
actually
we assume they did
just like when they threw it the right
way. When they threw it back, they did
it the right way. No, I'm kidding. But
they're doing it
as a result, so there's no question when
they return it, they want to make sure
they're returning it properly.
In the name of
In the event that somebody hits his
animal
on his head. The whole club is
And this guy, when he hit it on the
head, so he's not the best aim in the
world. He hits it in the head, but the
that he used made its way down to the
So he ended up not just hitting it on
the head. He ended up like hitting it
along the length of the animal. So the
or
it happened to reverse. He was trying to
hit the tail and he ended up hitting
like the whole length of the animal.
Make it
or he hit it along the entire spinal
cord. You
don't have to be worried about The
reason is, as we'll see in a minute,
even though hitting the animal in and of
itself maybe would give us reason to be
concerned a little bit about
but if you hit in a way where you
distribute the force of the hit, so
there's no one area that got the brunt
of it, and as a result, you don't have
to be concerned. That's the whole point.
He
the whole
is
It's the distribution of the blow that
tells us I don't really have to be so
worried. Now if he shall go through
I'll get I'll pal get the gab What would
be
in the event that
the hit would be such that you hit it
only on half.
Well, in that case you would have to be
worried.
In the event that this thing that was
used had nuts in it. So because it had
nuts in it, so when you hit it, it's
it's going to be very, very hard. Well,
in that case always high sheen and
because that's just very, very
aggressive. That's cruel and unusual. In
that situation, you're always going to
have yourself a problem. If you mark
your pass key additionally if you hit
the animal not on the length of the
animal but on the width of the animal.
So again, there the blow is much more
concentrated. It's like hitting it on
half of the length of the animal. The
width and the half of the length is, you
know, sort of the same onion. And in
that case high sheen and again, you
would have to be worried. Another one of
Nachman base her reckon
in by mission we suke ya'avar.
A child that's born
do we have to assume that maybe this
little baby because it went through the
base I reckon, it went through
childbirth. So maybe that caused some
sort of we suke ya'avar.
Interesting question. An animal that
falls, you have to be concerned. An
animal that's you know, playing in the
field, you have to be concerned. So you
see that anytime an animal deals with
some trauma, you have to be high sheen
that maybe there's we suke ya'avar.
Okay, later
to a degree in the trauma good day to me
so said you have to be concerned that in
the process of the later of the animal,
maybe there was some we suke ya'avar.
Now you can ask me if that's the case,
how could you ever eat an animal? How
could you ever eat an animal, right? You
always have a problem. So the answer is
24 hours. Again, there is
workarounds to this whole concept as
we're going to see on base, but for now
high level later, does that create this
trauma that triggers we suke ya'avar or
not? We Nachman told us that base
boy mission mission
so told us that
I have a right to you I guess
from a
10 night that's one day old
in the event that some
emerges from the body of this
so that is there's already
meaning that doesn't require an age a
really has what's the
other reason
if you're going to tell me yes
that is
when it comes to lady it becomes
why is this not a perfect example of the
that says
for
so the in the parish of says ish ish
of me
that the only time ziva that emanates
from a body is
if it happened naturally but if you can
attribute it to anything you can
attribute it to the fact that it wasn't
well or some trauma whatever might have
been then the is it's not going to be
now if you're going to tell me that lady
mission mission
that means it's a drama if it's a drama
should never be able to be a and it's a
THAT HE IS A WHO THAT SHOULD BE THE BEST
EXAMPLE OF THE WORLD OF
just like you're suggesting it might be
the best example of the world of a trade
of
and you see it's not oh my God you see
that even though you think the
issue but it's not versus my skin
against
maybe that price is talking about with
the animal was a dolphin it came out
surgically it came out not naturally
through the
rather came out through a procedure it
was a c-section oh in that situation
we're not having the conversation all
conversation is when it goes through the
which is somewhat unnatural that's why
we're concerned but
to the extent that
it came out
and that would be the case
another way from a eagle should not be
on
an eagle baby should not be on an eagle
should not be on
that
>> [snorts]
>> is you're allowed to
be on
on
that is a
but you see eagles should not be on
should not be
that means you should not be in that day
that means you don't have to wait 24
hours so you see the
of
which means that when an animal is
delivered there's no
of
going to
it's talking about where it wasn't a
natural delivery but rather it was a
being that was a
in that situation you obviously don't
have to worry
have another also
the everybody agrees should not
in the event that an animal is born
together with its mom she says
it's considered the context over here is
we know has to go to the right animal
has to go to a
what does the do with it it depends in
the event that it's a perfect the animal
then the
is he has me but it has a carbon if it
has a mom then
something that is allowed to eat
literally as if it's cooling
what happens if an animal develops a mom
on
develops a mom on so that's a
whether or not
would be allowed to eat it or not what's
the
do we look at it as
but
you
it was not something that you could eat
on
because it's a kitchen it's not a carbon
that's
and as a result you aren't going to be
able to eat it now that it developed a
mom now it's technically in
it should be okay that's a so the picks
up and says
those two
that argued regarding the that develops
a mom on but you could eat it or not
they agree that if the was
who
if it was night left with the mom and in
mind that
that law is that mom you'd be allowed to
eat it. What's the kasha? Another
touchma. How could you tell me that if
the animal was born with its mom on Yom
Tov, eat it? I can't eat it anyways cuz
if it was born on Yom Tov, so I have a
problem of
after wait 24 hours to make sure that
there's not going to be an issue over
here. And the
this is the third time we asked this
kasha. We asked this kasha about the
that's the Ziva. We asked it regarding
the should never be on Yom Tov. So good,
I'll tell you the same thing. It was
born to the Yom Tov. But you can't say
that. You know why? Because
me kodesh, then it wouldn't have
cuz
said
that was
the Indian culture as it relates to
culture. There's
no
to a that was born
obviously wasn't
says you have to say
skin on. This is talking about
the karka. It's talking about where
right after the animal was born
it clawed its
feet into the karka. If an animal does
that, that's also a sign of life and a
vibrancy. And in that case, you don't
even have to wait 24 hours. In that
case, you know for sure that it is going
to be all right. So very good.
His was based
in by
and the did what it always does, a few
touchmas.
Beautiful example of how the entire
Torah just all interconnect. We're
dealing with the base
of the Ziva. And we start with the laws
of Ziva, the laws of
the laws of the karka.
But the bottom line is what emerged was
is is that
holds the base of the karka is the base
of the Ziva.
His whole kodesh even was in the event
that it went through the base of the
karka. But if it was
it wouldn't have even been a
and another thing that emerged is that
in the event it was the karka. character
that's like gar pasul. The whole dish of
that there's no
at all. So but why would I assume that
this animal might be a treif? Oh cuz it
was born? That's considered natural. I
mean it's as much as it's
difficult procedure for the animal but
this is the way it is.
And as a result this is not something
that we would do.
Very much may in your
So the background to this is is that the
item
before they shaft an animal
they would take the animal they would
knock it to the ground. They would quote
unquote fell the animal. So they would
knock it down to the ground. And if said
that when they do that that in of itself
doesn't make
right. That would be a shot. That second
before you have to check the animal you
chuck the animal now you have to wait 24
hours. Right? So based on
a story of who threw it enough there was
once a show that fell
in the
and it made a very very loud noise.
He came in and he says I'm not worried
and he took me
give me the finest cut of this animal
I'm going to eat it.
So the told him you know
how do you know this? I'm so he told him
I was this from
the point of
that when an animal is about to be
slaughtered it anticipates what's going
on. And what it does is it claws its uh
toe nails its feet and finger nails into
the ground and it tries to not
get pushed in such a
dramatic way. Because it has some
control over its body at that point so
even if it falls it's not this terrible
fall and as a result it doesn't become a
treif. The only time it be a treif is if
it's this reckless fall. But being that
point of
so it's somewhat in control as it's
falling it's for that reason there's no
under Christmas lights.
If an animal falls, mission says
it's a treif. We already gave away the
fact that it's may slice. Here the says
but you should know if it stands up in
the may slice. You don't even need the
24 hours and it's going to be okay.
Bedika stating that to do a bedika some
sort of examination to make sure that
nothing is out of place. They buy you
that you wouldn't need. So you don't
have to wait 24 hours. You can do the
bedika right away. But you going to have
to do a bedika.
Let's say it didn't just get up but it
literally picked itself up and it
started walking.
Doesn't matter if it
only got up and didn't walk or if it got
up and walked even where it got up and
walked
pushed the other
if it stretched its hand out to get up
even if it pulled didn't get up at that
point it doesn't need may slice. Meaning
when we say under you don't even have to
be under. As long as you pushed the
other it's going to be fine.
Same is true as it relates to walking.
If it stretched lifted its leg
to walk obviously
even if it didn't walk
then it's going to be okay and whatever
that of is in the
corner of
you won't even need a bedika. But
say near
even if it just moved itself to get up
even if it didn't stand and here's the
even if it wasn't pushed even then it's
going to be okay. So review that said
under
even about said in the name of even
pushed is the equivalent of under. But
took it a step further. He said even if
it's near us the near is just like it
chuckled a little bit. Pushed that means
it actually stretched out its hand.
Under means it physically got up but
even if it's near on the word of
then it of itself is going to be okay.
Little more I mean we skip the
parenthesis.
In the name of of Tam. The foolish
Amram.
When we say that an afula sometimes
needs bedika, so the halacha is what
kind of bedika does it need? Sricha
bedika keneged benei mayim. You have to
check the benei mayim area. So that's
the area. It's in the intestinal area.
Amora Masutra. Acharei Mishnah Rabbah.
I'll tell you what they say in the name
of Rabbah. Sricha bedika keneged beis
hacholo kulai. No, you have to check the
entire animal. It's not enough that you
only check the benei mayim. Amora Hunah
Mar. Mar brei d'Rav Nechemia lei Rav
Ashi. Simanim mai? Do you have to check
the simanim as well? Like do you have to
make sure that the kan and the veshet
were
in place? Amalei simanim kashin in eitz
on the field. No, the simanim are
protected keneged the filo. So as much
as you have to check the whole cholo,
but in terms of checking the simanim,
that's already something you don't have
to check. The next Gemara is going to
pivot and it's going to talk about birds
that fall. So till now we're talking
about beheimos that fall with all the
halachos. The next Gemara is going to
talk about birds. It's going to take us
knee deep into tomorrow's daf. So we are
going to stop here. So baruch Hashem
another intense week of daf yomi.
But just to end with two very light
horas. The first story is
yesterday
we spoke a little bit about the pasuk in
parshas Kedoshim
that tells
the lo sasei of treifa. The anshei
kodesh ti'uni ubassar basadeh treifa lo
s'cheilu. Lakalev tashlichu oisah.
The
ikkar point of the pasuk is ubassar
basadeh treifa lo s'cheilu, which is the
backdrop to perek eilu treifos. The
Torah prefaces the lav with the words
v'anshei kodesh ti'uni. Additionally,
the Torah tells you what exactly you're
supposed to do with the treifa. What you
do with it is is lakalev tashlichu
oisah. And yesterday there raid, talked
a little bit about what's this Akdam of
Anshei Kodesh Tiyuli and we related it
to the passing of Parshas Re'eh that
says Ki Ki Am Kodesh Ata La'Hashem
Elokecha in the possuk that talks about
the neveilah and says that the neveilah
is not something you're allowed to eat,
but you're supposed to give it to the
ger or you sell it to the nachri.
Additionally, the psukim in the end of
Parshas Kedoshim and Parshas Shmini that
talk about how Kedoshim Tiyihu is an
inyan that governs very much machalos
asuros. So, whenever you find machalos
asuros it comes together with this idea
of the Anshei Kodesh Tiyuli. We spoke
out the Chasam Sofer's kasheh that why
do you have to take the possuk of the
asur and treifah and give it to the
kelev as if some last resort because you
have nothing to do with it. Why can't
you be mevatel it? Be mevatel it and
once you be mevatel it, at that point
you'll be allowed to eat it. You'll tell
me eim mevatlin issur l'chatchilah,
that's only issur d'rabbonan and the
Chasam Sofer was mechadesh that you see
from here that even though eim mevatlin
issur l'chatchilah in Sugyas Shas is an
issur d'rabbonan, that's when there's a
taruvus lach b'lach with a davar osser
is literally botel. But, to the extent
that the davar osser is b'ein, it's
going to be a taruvus yoveish b'yoveish,
kulai alma meidi that eim marvin
that eim mevatlin issur l'chatchilah is
going to be an issur d'oraisa
and the raya is literally from this
possuk. We mentioned that this chiddush
states on the night of Yehudah, but the
bottom line is that was one hora'ah that
we spoke about. Another we mentioned was
is why can't you give it to a katon and
don't tell me chinuch because chinuch is
d'rabbonan and katon oichel neveilos
basdin is not mitzvah So, how can I
if lo sachilum is true for all these
issurim? But, the Chachmei Ne'emanim
have a chakiya that it could be it's
only neged the three issurim that I
mentioned meforash in the Gemara in
Yevamos Daf Kuf Yud Daled Amud Alef and
treifah is not one of them, neveilah is
not one of them. So, why is it when it
comes to treifah the kelev tashlicheinu
and so on and so forth? When it comes to
the neveilah, you give it to the ger or
you give it to the nachri. Why can't you
just go ahead and uh mevatel it? And we
spoke out that it and give it to the
cotton. So, we mentioned that could be
the Anshei Kodesh Tiyun Lei, it's
related to the Timtum Alef, the Kedusha,
[laughter] and there's an element of
Timtum Alef that you have even when
there's a Bittul, right? That's the
Heter that the Piskei Teshuvos brings in
Siman Kuf Tes Zayin. And even though the
Soiles LaMitzvah BaShem the Torah
Sheleima says, "No, but we mentioned
from the Chida that Mitzad Kedusha
Uma'ala Umuktzah in the world of Kedusha
is allowed." So, the Anshei Kodesh Tiyun
Lei is not only why Basar BaCholov is
Assur but it's also why LaCheil
U'Tashlich kind of that's just a little
bit of Hazara of what we spoke about in
yesterday's Daf. But I saw just going
through some of the Rishonim on this
Pasuk the Anshei Kodesh Tiyun Lei
something that made me stop in my
tracks.
And that is in the Abarbanel.
The Abarbanel who KeDarkei BaKodesh is
being Mefareish the Pesukim Al Pi
Peshuto Shel Mikra. It's been a while
since uh
we did Chumash Shiur or even the
Haggadah Shiurim which featured the
Abarbanel very prominently. But the
Abarbanel
on this Pasuk says as follows, "VeEfsher
SheYihyeh HaMa'amar Zeh KeMashma'o." It
[snorts] could be this Pasuk the Anshei
Kodesh Tiyun Lei U'Basar BaCholov
DeTreifah Lo Yisa'cheil LaCheil
U'Tashlich Na'aseh is meant to be taken
KeMashma'o. Very, very literally. The
year in Yana and the Inyan is as
follows, "SheLo Yihyu Perutzim Lechol
HaTreifos SheNitrefu BaSadeh." That you
shouldn't be reckless and just eat the
Treifos that were trampled in the field.
"KeDarkei HaGoyim Nichbideihem
VeSareihem."
Which was the custom of the Inyei
Yehudim.
Their Nichbideihem, their nobles,
VeSareihem, and their uh ministers,
"SheYelchu LaTzeid BaSadeh." They would
go hunting. "VeOif O Achaya Asher
Yaharogu Im Kalbeihem Yoichlu HaTzeidim
VeYarvu Lahem." And when they would go
hunting they would bring their dog
together with them. And they would hunt
and the dog would hunt and whatever they
would catch they themselves, the noble
people, would eat. Tzeifah." So it's for
that reason the Torah said,
that you should be kadoshim, says the
Torah.
Cuz in the event that you're going to
decide, you,
you want to go hunting,
you're going to do exactly what the
NOBLE WILL DO.
THAT'S FINE.
BUT IN THE EVENT that you're going to go
and you're going to catch animals
through the club, I mean the club are
going to be the ones that are going to
catch.
The kadoshim, you shouldn't eat it.
The dog should go ahead and eat it. So
it seems that there was this old custom
that people would go out and they would
hunt. And when they would hunt, they
would go together with the dogs. They
would catch, the dogs would catch. And
they would eat everything. It didn't
matter if they caught it or if the dogs
caught it.
You shouldn't do that. So that when you
go hunting with your dogs, if the dog
catches it, LIKE HE
SHOULD eat it, you should not eat it. SO
THE
TREIF WHILE YOU'RE HUNTING,
had it become a treif from from the dog,
the dog is what tore it apart, let the
dog eat what it tore apart, because
that's already a beginning of an kadosh.
The noble seems to be saying that it's
okay to go hunting. In fact, the Torah
is talking to the hunter. And by the
way, you know WHAT THE SCRIBE TOLD THE
HUNTER IS,
SO WHEN YOU HUNT, DO IT LIKE AN KADOSH.
DON'T DO it like regular noble and
sorry. Your hunting should be different.
Our hunting should be kadosh hunting
should be holy. That's what we're saying
over here. The kadosh hunting and that's
the way that you should go out and you
should do the hunting. And the main
after you know, in the event that the
club is going to go ahead and he's going
to have something, so they would say,
"Oh, perfect. Dog works for me. Thank
you for lunch. Thank you for dinner. No,
if the caliph is the one that created
and caused
in that situation
what's the matter
where this
fellow sends the shiva
to the night of Judah. Remember his
name?
So
since the shiva tonight of Judah, he's
this very very wealthy person and he
owns acres and acres of land and he
likes to go hunting sometimes and he
asked him from a perspective.
This is his famous line that he tells
him to open up
>> [laughter]
>> THE SAYS I COULD JUST TELL YOU COULD
HUNT. BUT YOU HAVE to do it differently.
You don't hunt the way the people that
are not from hunting. This is
fascinating. This night of Judah is the
gift that keeps on giving. This is the
first very light heart. The second light
heart is
So the told the story in today's stuff.
Few stories.
But one
>> [clears throat]
>> a little longer than the others.
The year that came from Israel. The army
said
my name is
my name is a story.
Is that's the way the story was
presented initially where somebody
brought a
animal base
there was a
that was there on one side and he said
it's a treif. And when I buy it or this
he says what? I thought only if it's on
two sides and if it's on one side and I
buy it goes to great lengths literally
track down
and he asked
tell me exactly how did the story go
down?" He tells him the rest of the
story and then
for this
this story that I was told is not really
the way it happened and you know, I
regret I'm told you
why I even went to go and track you down
because really there was nothing
newsworthy over here. This whole story
was really a mission.
So
when
Rav Safra tells the story initially to
Abaya, he doesn't
when he came to Israel, we asked him his
name, he said Rav Avira is my name. My
name is Rav Avira. Rav Avira Margolis
like only Rav Avira Margolis could ask a
question on this Gamara. A question from
a Gamara in
Daf P.
The Gamara says Rav Huna of Nosson once
Rav Huna of Nosson once came
he was a guest by Rav Nachman bar
Yitzchak. On the way, so the people in
Rav Nachman bar Yitzchak's house turned
to Rav Huna bar Nosson and they asked
him, "Mash mach?" What's your name?
"Omalu say he told them, "Rav Huna." My
name is Rav Huna.
Omalu say they said, "Nisa marapuya."
Can you please sit down? Yosiv, he sat
down.
They gave him a glass of wine. This was
old school. Kablu
soon as they offered him the wine, he
took it meaning he didn't say, "Nah,
it's okay. I don't need it." Oh, you
want me to take it? No problem.
He took it right away. Vishna
b'chazminni and when he took the wine,
he didn't twirl it then. No, he just
took it in two gulps. He drank the
entire cup of wine. Not just that, but
he had
there's a certain minig of that when you
drink wine, you know, you go a little to
the side and you know, you drink it.
That's not what he did.
Omalu say they turned to him and they
said, "My time of course
you know,
>> [laughter]
>> I asked your name, you tell me your name
is Rav Huna. I mean, your name is Huna.
Who talks about themselves that way?"
Omalu say Rav Huna said, "I'll be honest
with you. Bala she money. Rashy says,
"Mikat Nusik
Rav Huna." They used to call me Rav Huna
since I'm young and and you ask me
my name. I know since I'm a little boy
I'm known as Rav Huna and it's for that
reason that's what I TOLD HIM. AND THEN
they Gemara said they asked him all
these different minhagim that he did
that the Gemara thinks was a little bit
much.
And that's the whole Sugya that's going
on over there. But here [snorts] we have
a Gemara where Rav Huna walks into Rav
Nachman bar Yitzchak says,
"What's your name?" And he says, "My
name is Rav Huna." And they're very
taken aback. Rav Huna? You call yourself
Rav Huna? That's gaifa, right? Why would
you call yourself Rav Huna? And he
responded his response was that you
know, since I'm young they used to refer
to me as Rav Huna. So I don't know,
since I'm a little kid this is always
the way they were
called me. Well, if that's the case, how
come when this Sugya mirabbonan whose
name was Rav Avira came to Rav Safra and
they asked him, "What's your name?" He
said, "Rav Avira shmainey." How come
they didn't ask him, "Rav Avira, call
yourself Avira." That's Rav Huna
mirabbonan in Sukkah peh vov mem beis
when Rav Huna said that my name is Rav
Huna everybody was very taken aback. Why
you calling yourself Rav Huna? It's No
one talks that way. If that's the case,
why is it that when Rav Avira said that
my name is Rav Avira they didn't call
him out for the same thing. Sukkah
mirabbonan the Torah teaches pashut.
What did Rav Avira say? He said, "Rav
Avira shmainey." That was what he said.
Chazimara mirabbonan mem aleph
v'omar Rav Avira shmainey. My name is
Rav Avira. This is the whole lotion is a
little bit funny. My name is Rav Avira.
They asked him his name he said Avira.
Rav Avira shmainey. He said the Torah
teaches what he was trying to say was is
that my name is not Avira. Oh, but I
prefer to be referred to. I prefer the
moniker as Rav Avira. What he was saying
is my name is Rav Avira. Like this Chaim
Yankel, I'm Rav, my first name, Avira is
my second name. When Rav Huna was asked
his name, Rav Huna said, "Rav Huna." He
didn't say Rav Huna Shmany Doses my
nomen, and that's why they were very
taken aback.
Rav Huna, no one talks this way. And
what was his response? His response was
that
"No, this is always the way I've been
known." In fact, Rashi mentions a little
bit. Rashi says that What does it mean
this is always me? Katnusi Kakh Koirli
Rav Huna.
It could be what he was saying was, "No,
no, my name is not Huna, and I like
referring to myself as Rabbi. My name is
Rav Huna." But the reason they asked him
was is cuz when they said Mashma, he
simply said Rav Huna. But when they
heard Rav Avira said Rav Avira Shmany,
they understood that his sofa was coming
to say that my name is actually Rav
Avira. But here's the point. The point
is is that Rav Avira's name is not
Avira, but he prefers the title Rav. His
name is Rav Avira.
What Rav Avira
say this? What's his objectives? It's
mentioned by Kitzur right here in the
Tut Say Yar.
It's mentioned very much not by Kitzur
in a safer Shemos V'Kinuyim, and it's
under the Mekar called Bal Du Shem. So
we've mentioned many times over the
years the Chasam Sofer and the Nadvir
Yehuda, they're both very Myrich than
Achas Shiver, and they talk about how
once upon a time nobody had two names.
This is one of the most brilliant
Mekarim in the whole lexicon of Torah
from the great going Rav Avira
Margolios. But he says that they all
said that you don't find anywhere
anywhere that anybody had two Even in
the S'man of the Rishonim, you couldn't
find people that had two names.
Everybody has two names, three names,
four names. But once upon a time he said
nobody had two names. Instead, Rav Avira
Margolios, he goes through nuanced ways
where he believes he found people with
two names. It's not obvious. It's not
What's your name? Rav Chisda Papa.
That'd be easy. But no,
things that you would never think. And
this Gemara right here, Chulin on Aleph
Amud Aleph, in the world of Margolies
was a person that had two names. What
are the two names? Rav is one name and
Avira is THE OTHER NAME. THAT'S RAV
AVIRA SHMEINI. THE RAYA, THEY DIDN'T
CALL HIM OUT on it the WAY THEY DID TO
RAV in the Gemara of Perek Eilu
Metzi'os. This is classic, classic,
classic Rav Margolies. And Rav Margolies
has always a punchline, right? He says,
"I'll prove to you I'll prove to you
that I'm right." This is this is epic.
So subtle, but again,
classic, right? We do this a lot. This
is classic. He says, "We know We know
Everybody knows Anyone that's ever
learned Gemara knows this. That in
Bavel, someone that got smicha they used
to refer to as Rav. And in Eretz
Yisrael, if somebody had smicha, they
would always refer to him as Rebbi."
Right? There's a Rashi in Sukka that
talks about Rav Zeira. Rav Zeira and
Rebbi Zeira. So Rashi, Rav Zeira was
from Bavel, cuz in Bavel everyone's a
Rav. And Rebbi Zeira is from Eretz
Yisrael, cuz in Eretz Yisrael
everybody's a Rebbi. Who is this person?
"Amali Rav Safra l'Abaye, chazima hait
suvim rabbonan d'asimen RAV HE CAME FROM
ERETZ YISRAEL. SO IF HE CAME FROM ERETZ
YISRAEL, WHY IS HE RAV AVIRA? He should
be Rebbi Avira. The terutz ne'eman is
that was his name, Rav Avira Shmeini.
Rav Avira Shmeini. And he goes in the
footnote, Rav Margolies says that it
could be With this he could be meyashev,
he says, cuz there are other examples
where you find some of the Bnei Eretz
Yisrael were referred to as Rav. And he
says, "Mi oidei'a?" He's thinking out
loud. "Mi oidei'a if all those Ravs
attacking our Ravs and it's not a kasha
on Rebbi's on Rashi's klal that every
single time you find Rav it's Ba'al
Korcha of Bavel, and when you find Rebbi
it's from Eretz Yisrael. It could be in
those cases also these are Ba'alei Du
Sham. THESE ARE PEOPLE WITH TWO NAMES,
and that's why it's Rav, cuz Rav is
actually the shem. Now, where did we
speak about this recently? We just spoke
about the name Rav. We spoke about it in
the Machlokes Rashi and Tosfos that we
had not so long ago.
Where Shmuel used to refer to Rav as
Abba. And the shaila is, why do you
refer to him as Abba? Rashi says he used
to refer to him as Abba miloshon koved.
Tosfos says he used to refer to him as
Abba, that was his name. Abba Richol.
And the question is that according to
Tosafot, so Rav's real name is Abba.
Now, why is he known as Rav? Rav means
"master of the world". But according to
Rashi, that he was referred to as Abba
Milashin Kovea, and presumably Rav
Milashin Kovea. Well, if that's the
case, what's his name? So, Reuven
Margolies, you know what I think his
name is? I think his name is really Rav.
I think his name is Rav. I think that's
his name. I actually think his name is
Rav. And how about Smicha? If his name
is not Rav, and they're calling him
Rav because he's "master of the world".
So, small when he wants to be him, he
downgrades him, and instead of calling
him Rav, he calls him Abba. Doesn't make
any sense. Elema, his name was Rav. Now,
where do you find Reuven Margolies
anyone whose name was Rav? So, at the
time we mentioned four examples. We
mentioned Rav bar Shabba. We mentioned
Rav Aha bar Rav. We mentioned Romi bar
Rav, right? We mentioned a few different
places where you find the name Rav.
Here's another Rav. Rav Avira Yishmeini.
It's one of two names. His first name
was Rav. His second name was Avira. The
bottom line is, this is classic classic
Reuven Margolies. And where is he coming
through to this case? His name was
probably Rav Avira. No, cuz his
name was probably Avira, and he's
calling himself Rav because
"I'm known as 'master of the world', BUT
I DON'T WANT YOU TO CALL ME
Rav Avira." If that's the case, how come
the Gemara didn't ask the same kasha on
Rav Avira that they asked to Rav Puna in
Gemara Pesachim 112. It's interesting.
In one of the footnotes here,
Reuven Margolies says that it's Yitkan,
that the reason people would give their
child the name Rav
was because, you know, they were hoping.
It was like a Tefillah.
They wanted that this child should grow
up and should be
to become a Rav. He says, "Moshe Rabbenu
you find in the Gemara the name
Kashisha. Mar Kashisha." Kashisha,
Reuven Margolies says, was a name. What
does Kashisha mean? It means old, right?
It means old. Mar Zutra, Mar Kashisha.
But he says Kashisha was old. People
used to give the name Kashisha. It's one
of his theories. It's a real name. It's
a shame etsem.
I
Where do you even find something like
that? So, he says, "What do you mean? In
Yiddish, people today give the name
Alter." Right? What's the name Alter?
Alter means you should be
to be
So, you see there's a name called Alter.
That name Alter has its roots in the
Gamorah already, he says. He says, "You
find the name Kashisha." He says, "I'm
going to tell you one other one. I'll
tell you one other one, and that is the
name Bachya. The name Bachya. That's a
Sefardic name. And who is Bachya? So,
there's two Rabbeinu Bachyas, right?
Rabbeinu Bechaya, Bachya. I know
everybody gets excited when you say
Bachya or Bechaya. You say Bachya or the
Bechaya everybody gets excited, and if
you say Bechaya, you don't know who's
Bachya. It's a shiyel. So, the bottom
line is Rabbeinu Bachya. [laughter]
It was the Baal Ha'Emes Al Ha'Torah is
Rabbeinu Bachya. And of course, Rabbeinu
Bachya the the Rabbeinu Bachya. So, he
says that there's a lot that academics
are like very mesupak. No one really
knows who Rabbeinu Bechaya or Rabbeinu
Bachya Al Ha'Torah is. He says he's
heard he's heard he's heard a lot of
write on this. So, I'll just tell you a
brief to one last excerpt. But in this
biography of Shelley, okay, so some
biography work, "O
k'shem Bachya eino shem o etsem. It was
never a real name. Kim kinui skuli that
you should be to be
LIKE ALTER. SO, RABBEINU BACHYA IS LIKE
SAYING RABBEINU ALTER. IT'S A VERY very
similar concept. That's the idea. FOR
RABBEINU BACHYA the Al Ha'Torah, the Kad
Ha'Kemach, the famous Rabbeinu Bachya
who wrote his Pirush Al Ha'Torah and who
wrote the Kad Ha'Kemach, right? It's the
same author. Rabbi Yehuda Ish Mai. You
should know his name was Rabbi Yehuda
name wasn't Bachya. His name was Rabbi
Yehuda. U'vei kol fin b'ksav yad
mefurash b'sof sefer Kad Ha'Kemach. He
said that he found that in the end of
the sefer Kad Ha'Kemach, now this
Kad Ha'Kemach he found in Ex Libris Yad.
I'm going to try to read this. It's Les
Manuscritos Hebreo La Real Biblioteca
Madrid. So, he said he found this
ruble in my dollars, right? So, he saw
it once and obviously it was stored away
somewhere. But, the bottom line is this
came from some
uh
hebreo biblioteca in Madrid, Spain and
he finds there in this library a savant
of the original cada can make amazing.
And this is what it says at the end. The
kind of Islam cada can make a shiver a
rabid Yehuda been Arab usher have the
owner rabid back here who's known as
rabid back here. But, anyway he said he
found it before it's in in a library in
Madrid, Spain. The bottom line is back
here says the only thing was a shame at
some but it was like a keynote a keynote
of the school. Rabbi was also cute. So,
I don't know does it mean that at the
bris who's you can make me stroll back
here don't sound like rabbinical back
here. Out there is a name you give it a
bris. Rab, I think also name you give it
a bris but it goes off on a little bit
of a tangent and he talks about
different names that you find that
people used to give partial blessing in
school.
Rab, back here out there but I shouldn't
again in your name with the name Rab is
a little bit tricky. You have Rab as in
Rab and sometimes Rab can be a shame at
some and it has fascinating after
minutes. Number one could be that was
the name of the great American Rab just
like small saying with small. Rab's name
was Rab. It could be if that's the case
you going to have people that have two
names with some sort of TO SAY NO ONE
EVER HAD TWO NAMES. WELL, IF RAB COULD
BE A SHAME at some Rab a viewer could be
two names. So, anyone who has the
preface of Rab you might have to ask
yourself maybe his first name is really
Rab. And it would also be me a shame the
cloud that every child knows that the
Russian school is that Rab is from
bubble and Rab is from America. I am all
you find some of the constant like Rab a
viewer.
And you find that he's referred to as a
Rab. The truth is he's not being
referred to Rab as some sort of lotion
of hashish. He's being referred to as
Rab because his name is Rav. So you saw
it there Rav could be a shame or etzem.
And once you know that, there's a lot of
mechkarim that can flow from there. I
and hate even the seforim of Rav Reuven
Margolies. This is very much divrei
picham chain the Uyin Hadvarim the Misha
Umra.
