Cleaning A Home On Shabbos - Rabbi Yakov Zev Smith

[Music] 718-851-8651 the other week we woke up to a lot of snow on child this morning and the question was are you allowed to shovel the snow in a situation where you're within an area there's no problem of caring he said we're going to shovel snow on shabbos then we had a child that was deceivingly simple but the question by washing the floor mapping the floor having the guy do it and whether it's at home or in a public area and yes even a hotel you have a catering hall a muscle that is a big rain friday night and the floor is muddy or or it is dirt from slush from snow in which situations is the amulet to wash the someone asked about washing the countertop there was a very nasty stain he wanted to clean it off and someone told him episode i want to wash it count it up as well so this these and many other questions would be the focus of today which is really the suggest of keeping a home clean on shabbos and yamtiv and basically as our derek always is even though it seems to be a variety of different questions sweeping mapping counter tops really one you say that we have to really clarify the mystery and the actual sim and shin lam really based on the gemaran shabazz gimbal but to make it practical the melaka of khoirish is not only someone on the tractor that's plowing the field as the mr buru says quoting a gemara any type of improvement to the ground leveling the ground making it straight which is which is really a prelude for irish leveling ground is the malach of irish now how about if i level the ground i i flatten the ground in my own home let's say i'm living a long time ago or i'm living in the khabib schiam's house they say that he still had an earthen floor no covering so what's wrong with leveling the ground in my house i'm not going to plant in my house so mr says based on the iman shabba saying gimmelamy base that's still the yes because you're improving your your house and the karaka the ground is part of your house so leveling the ground either it's outdoors it's irish so indoors and for example which i think we all know it's a big suggestion and our sim and channel dragging a heavy bench outdoors if it's a sick ratio if inevitably it will cause a furrow to be formed you'll make a harit that's also on shabbos what's wrong with making a a furrow on the ground that's irish of course that's in now you're wondering what is this after sweeping on tough shin paybays we all have floors of any type but no one has earthen floors so let's learn but we immediately think about massive education or some decoys keyboard is sweeping i guess that's the real keyboard you sweep your house obviously arab shabbos or shaolin both of them are okay that's keyboard keyboard is sweeping if someone sweeps over baits we'll soon see he pours water on the ground so the one sheet is but we definitely hope that there's an issue of sweeping or sprinkling water on the ground now agave i'll mention this once and for all the gamoras talks about shabbos and yangtiv in other words today sugiya even though we always mention shabbos because most of our year is shabbos but the suggest today applies equally to yamtiv like shabbos so today's surgery beside the 52 shabasa of the year is also the 12 days of yamcha so here the gemara says that sweeping or being rabbits pouring water on the ground which levels the ground is asan chaba soyumtif the question is sweeping i'm sweeping my house and assuming i live in the olden days that i have an earthen floor but what's wrong with sweeping in my house so rashi says mishomboina oh now we understand what that means we said earlier leveling the ground and proving the ground in the house is bainum but a little more mafurish rashi and shabbos kufkov [Music] this is very important because had it been that sweeping doesn't necessarily level the ground had it been just an enemy it might be motor but rashi is telling us the fact that sweeping a ground is certainly leveling it and it makes it a secretion of boeing jobs okay let's come it will soon see says it's carvel obsecration but that's bad enough so now we see sweeping an earthen floor is as bad as slapping a heavy bench they're both secretia of moloch deriza i just should mention that this rashi is the reason of most bashing there are other reasons why sweeping is awesome says when you're sleeping inevitably you're moving much whether it's the dirt that you're moving or the dirt of the floor whatever it is chicken bones whatever fell on the floor so he feels that sweeping is a problem of muktsu the smog and simon simmons has a little different of a reading he says if you're sweeping the floor you're involved in making the floor nice you might end up smoothing the carving of the floor or repairing a hole in the ground the arzarua says it might bring to fifa if you want to see more in detail you look in the sri sasha irish tesla he has nine reasons why it's asap to sweep a floor on shabbos now this is all wonderful the question is what does it have to do with us and tufts and pay bays that no one has dirt flaws so here's the big question can we say if the reason no longer applies then ignore ignore or since when do we do we do that we don't permit taking pain relief on shabbos today because we don't grind medicine we don't change technology if it doesn't apply so we still keep it so the question is can we say since today there is no problem of mashwa gum is because there's no flaws of earth earth maybe there's no issue so we have to learn a second gemara it's on same daf sad decay poured water on the floor in the husum so they asked him that's the issue of us that's mama's the issue tomorrow said before in order to do so he says what's the reason you're not allowed to do it i'm not worried because where i am there's no problem of goombas why obviously they had a uh either tile floor maybe they had a a shy-ish marble so it's a plea because you don't have a problem you ignore takanas khazal so rashi explains ritzpa savannah you see he had a stone floor but apparently the city machus was an upscale city and they didn't have dirt floors they all had mob um marble or stone floors now it still needs a hezbop because you don't have a problem how do you ignore the carnos gazelle but let's move on there's a second gemara beside that decay has two parts to it the second amount is base the amount is rebate may have the helicopter went to the merchants on shabbos and this was before the acid going to america and if i made them out covered i wanted to wash the floor where he was going to be so he says you're not going to wash the floor on shabbos so he said rebbe but the the floor in the americas was not earth it was a stone floor whatever it is but it wasn't the problem of earth she says aren't you worried about character bakarka mikhlova of course in the americas there's no earthen floor but the rest of the homes are how could you wash the floor and he refused to allow them to wash the floor for him now we're confused sad decay diameter says in shabbos you're allowed to wash the floor if it's there's a if it's not dirt if it has a a a a a and a left you know out of washington america what's the relic so we need a cost of ashleigh she a third gemara that's shabbos hof testament base with mark tells an incredible story think about it there was one a certain person schlepped the heavy bench in his dining room that had a marble floor not an earthen floor now you could slap the bench and play tomorrow you're not going to make a character marble floor but they told him but you have to make xara marble floor up to earthen floor so you can't slap a heavy bench in your dining room even though it's a marble floor so this we see that you can't say well i'm different everybody else which we understand but how do we understand amaymar allowed the rinsing in macosa so twice this on this gemara says that the shot is based on rashi by that's a decay listen to the beautiful ironfall zak toisus if you recall ahmed didn't say my floor was different amen said the whole city nobody had dirt floors we all had either marble or or stone floors so therefore twice this says that if the entire city has no dirt floors it's mutu but if just then it's taka-asa because xara doesn't change so this is a beautiful insight in other words the the general attitude is you can't ignore takanas ghazal because you have a different situation apparently if the whole city doesn't have that concern so the mufka from the xero but lest you think that we just take the conus gaza lightly listen to a fourth gemara and that's that's the culmination of our introduction in circumstances the mystery describes the incredible you know avoid of er pesach explains there was blood in the before the base amigdas up to their knees and the kehanim and i quote the madigan shallow against the will of the rabbanum even though it was in the basement there was a marble floor but they violated the now the question is what was wrong a marble floor there's no hash of mashima gumas the turret is other floors were not marbled so you can't do something here if everybody else is awesome but the point is we see from here something incredible because you have to realize that i must make this point we talk about washing the floors we immediately think about a map well soon see a map involves multiple surim firstly you put water on the map so you that's lieberman you're cleaning it then you ring it out then when you mop the floor from the map to the floor then you bring out the map again afterwards right this heater maps involved isure toyota the way they washed the floor in those days i didn't find any pisces they said they washed it with a map the way they did it we do it today again in some places and they're chill specially they splash water on the floor and then they pushed with a sort of like a uh they call it a sponge or whatever you know a a a plastic device that pushes the water there's no street in that it's just washing the floor and the truth is that's what they did in the basement mcdougas they they had they put water they opened up the water to come out then the water ran and then the water was drained but there was no street dog so what's wrong with washing the floor the turret says if you put water on an earthen floor that settles the ground so washing even on the shining floor is awesome so it's marvel orion the blood was up to their knees it was a real mess but you can't violate it you know we have to not only keep shabbat we have to be shy mashabas gazeros khazal protect any concern of hilo shabbos so here we see the extent of takanas ghazal and the basa amigdas when presumably there was a need but it wasn't enough of a need the murray says i ain't supposed but it's not enough of a need so now let's learn this and we'll savor the flavor like like we'd like to say how the mahabharata took all this and put it into a few hours [Applause] says that if you drag a bench and it's not a heavy bench and it's not a secretion that you're going to make an indentation that's push it because the the character and discuss is why it's muta to slap a heavy bench in your dining room now till today we might say what's the problem of the dining room but then again there is a problem if the city is not all floored it's a problem but today it's more to slap a bench in a home [Music] water on the floor so to mr explains we're only talking about a case that it's not absoration you're going to settle the ground i guess not too much water i saw the smear shabbis points out something that i guess the younger boys don't know we're talking about but anybody our age remembers this before somehow a good garber would pour water on the floor on the base mattress why because otherwise by dancing all the dust would settle now but imagine if you have if you have a cuff ice on dirt on earth earthen floor or there would be dust to pour water on the earth when it's not up secretion and you're doing it to keep the dust from settling from from rising that would be motive it's not absolution but of course the poor water on the ground when it's tipsy croatia is the islamic abundance of oscillates now sieve bays is our indian and the mahabharata begins emphatically you're out of sweep even if it's not marouza where is that coming from so let's go slow why is it asked to sweep says the mystery bureau because the the croatia you're going to be masturbating and the sharotian mentions the other reasons maybe it's muktsa much moving maybe you might come to the equator again nine reasons why now to sweep a floor an earthen floor on shabbos or yamcha that's the mahabharata then says yes material that that but if the floor is marutif if you have a a covering on your floor it's musta now where's that why is that so so obviously this is based on a rambam in profall of gimbal with the rambam permits if your floor is piled or covered because once by you there's no hash you don't have to worry it's doing the rest of the city now where is this coming from so let me tell you this yes you're allowed to even sweep sweep a dirt floor that's connected but this is based on twice this saturday quoting a baha'i who says makes a very interesting point who said sweeping is obscuration the gemara says that rav shimon is moida by secretary it's awesome but let's say it's not absecration then a coin of shimla is mutter and if you learn the gemara it might be that the more than us is sweeping is because even though it's not obsecration but animus haven't exhausted but lloyd wrapped shim and we passed in that animus having his mud that's only observation that's awesome so the mahogany sweeping the floor when it's not observation now so i don't know what the materials was in every dirt floor may if if it wasn't upside down the baha'i held its muslim now it seems a little bit of mcclay because but there's says no you can't rely on the baha'i we reject the baha'i but we can make sort of a compromise once your floor is marutif so you're not gonna you're not gonna come to a problem i other flaws are not but we could rely on this so this i want to make a point for smart dim you should know the mechabashita is even if the whole city is not merusa it's regular dirt floors if your house is marutif and that's the meaning of they have this cooler they could they could sweep the floor however the tour quotes the rush and based on the chubbis very strongly worded larson with an atla kite he says people sweep the floor i would be i would be moira but they won't listen and why should i make them as either that was the russia's understanding that's how much the rush rejected the hete to be makel when the floor is marutif even if it's merotic you can't be mako connected to gemara in other words he doesn't accept the bahag and he doesn't even accept the sheet of the rambam and that's us says that the minigames we don't sweep any floor even if the floor is marootsif so light to rama it seems to be that there's no head to the sweet floor because he says you can't sweep even marissa but we could add but let's say the entire city is marutif that's that we saw gemara that's hamema and takadabe is quick to add and i'm not sure why their mod doesn't mention the fairies but bialog is quick to add if the entire city is marootsif you're allowed to sweep even according to the rumble so let's kazurova that basically a dirt floor is still also the same issa we'll soon see many examples a floor that's tiled or any type of covering if only this floor is tiled for the mini ashkenaz it's still awesome now let's apply the islamic so again sweeping the house today is no suffix i'll tell you an interesting aura a shiala but even though it's not gonna give it to me or you but it brings us to the beauty of this how every every question has to be analyzed properly yes about soldiers i guess former soldiers that are on duty and they don't have hotels they stay in tents they sleep uh takas keepers with a tent on top of them but the mom is living on the ground the one place that they have a floor is in the the the dining room area where they eat because they have to clean it so they asked reversal could they sweep the tents and if not can they sweep at least a dining rear that has a floor on it so how would you respond to that question sarvasa said well since roy of the place where they are they're not in the city they're outdoors so even in the kitchen area they can't sweep because it's it's a city that's right that's not mirozi but then he says he doesn't add this but it hurts push it that taka for smart him it's muted to sweep in the kitchen because once this floor is marutif so for the mahabashit so that's basically what this is you don't look at the whole artist role as one you look at a city and then they're they're they're not in the city they're out of the city they're in the mountains that taka is anemic now sweeping our homes how about sweeping our driveways which is for those that are listening and don't know what city life is all about you know we have a little uh concreted area in between house and another house so the truth is the older pisces say you don't look at the whole new york city as one you look at the homes as one group and the outdoors as another group so in the city we could say river here if not the probably the overwhelming majority of the city is mauritsev the streets the sidewalks okay people still have a little greenery in their backyard and lawn but basically the city not only the homes but the roy for here is marutsup you can see a lot of sweep the streets or the the beside the the the driveway the person has a suck on the driver that's okay now we'll soon see suburban life you know people live in muncie where there's more land out out there and besides that this even not all areas are marutif that's mohammed we'll get back there in a moment but let's talk about someone lives in a city and as a backyard and he likes to see their bunch of slums worlds he didn't concrete his backyard it's still the original carca de bernstrom made and time it raised my abrasions so there's no doubt about it if he's outside and he wants to sweep up that ground that's an isa upon him that's mohammed shah al-sudya the fact that the whole had all the homes on the russia doesn't affect dirt dirt is dirt that's possible now let's say he has a backyard all ground all earth he decides to build he's on the ground floor he builds a deck a patio whatever you call it but it's level with his house it's built like you know just a little bit above the ground could he sweep that patio of that deck is it eats outside maybe it's a sukkas he builds a sucker there so this is interesting because the house is mutha the outside the yacht is awesome because it's karaka but this deck is built on the yard but it's pot it's part of the house so i saw the chutzani of this and karel says he says how do you look at this deck is it part of the outside outside is awesome it's all aina merodsa who said it's part of the house it's built out of the house but the smear shabbos says but he thinks that this is partial that this is considered an extension of the house even though it's built above easter area because the outbreed yard is awesome but it's like an extension of the house and you'll have to sweep this deck this porch but i want to make a point if we would be able to say that the porch that this deck is like the outdoors it would be us that even though the deck is a wooden floor because don't forget it's like brave of the outdoors is anna marissa at least in his backyard now la maison this seems to be nastavra i did see some question this who told you have a right to to make a new din on something attached to the house but the truth is it's mustafa and we could also throw in like the mekaba it's without that judgment of being part of the house because this ground this area is merutsum now la maisa there's a third swara that whose care is built on top of the ground la maison this is uh not ground it's built on top but every house is built on the ground so who said you all of a sudden it becomes part of the ground maybe it's an independent uh porch and most portraits today are mirotsu that's why i think there's a mark of the huckle by this sweeping this patio but what's interesting it comes suckers and many people build their cookies outdoors of course not on an upstairs porch but on the ground so there's no doubt about it that sukkah is the time you have to sleep you have children grandchildren make a lot of mess but if your sook is built on the karka they're burning times character that's awesome they're bottom to sweep that that sukkah the fact that most homes are maruti have nothing to do with the outdoors outdoors is still awesome now the only shyla is if someone puts down facus he doesn't want to sit on the ground it's muddy so he puts down a vase a top or a piece of linoleum so even that is not so positive because rove of the yard is not maruti so what's the tattoo makeup the deck i could say is part of the house the sook is in the backyard the freestanding sukkah so the khut shanitaka has this surrogate why is it muthub just because you put down a character that put down a temporary character so for sardi it's mutha because this kayak is maruti the smear shabbos and obeys now that's interesting because he allows a deck because it's part of the house but a suk is not part of the house but then i saw the arch or has and he says that since it's mishtamish federer it's included in the hecta of abayas which is a you know who said why that part of the isn't it part of the godzilla so the mice what's interesting would be if you allow taka the person to sweep because it's part of the house then it comes out that this yard is awesome for eleven and a half months a year and for the circus when you have the ground and you have the sukkah it's much of the same ground butter us but that's something to think about that if there's no ground at all except for the character avada nevada that's also the sweep so the mice the atkan city life now let's move to the suburbs and the other homes are berkeley still mirotsif but the outdoors the law and the yards the plots of land that people live on we could probably suggest i'm not saying all suburban areas but there are some suburban areas that river air is not marooted you have a little bit yeah of course the speed there's the streets with cars driving tip and this sometimes you have a thin walkway but if you think you calculate the the land of these places there are many private homes have huge acres of land the road might not be murutsuk and that's why it's very possible that if if you say my city where i live is right anemones i'm not saying muncie or lakewood you have to know each you know area but let's say you say my area is right in russet it will come out that if you have a walkway paved going up from the street to your house fully paved there wouldn't be a hectare unless you're asparty because that is a marutif in it and you don't say well the the pavement leaving the house is part of the house it's not extension to the house so that's essentially this where a suburban area has this issue now it's marvel dick you learn a lot and you think it's not relevant but then you think about it everything has certain relevance there are some outdoor areas that they had they don't make a whole pavement they put down i don't know the name officially but they put down like thin stones and that's formed like a walkway especially in suburban areas like thin stones and you step on one to the other and that's good enough the outdoors but there's earth in between the stones and the bialock and sea bays discusses the bane how you avoid him in between the tiles or the or the whatever might be outside there's earth so you have to worry about master of goombas of that earth you want to solidify that so this outdated would be fully negaya when you have an outdoor pathway that has thin stones that you walk one to the other but there's earth in between so even if a smartie would want to be makeup because it's maroot sim it's really namarutsu because part of it is still the original earth that's the problem of mashfaghumas now let's say a person is either suburban area or the mountains is he more common and there's a lawn now we call this uh i don't know a better word but there's a bald spot where there's no grass growing and just dirt and people make the eat outdoors i should mention this is not not so excited about eating outdoors you might come to poor water but whatever that person has a head or whatever the heck they might be the question is when he eats outdoors let's say he doesn't use liquid so he won't deserve but he eats outdoors and someone spilled the whole bag of popcorn on the floor so you want to sweep up the earthen floor outdoors that's mama shall we sugya because even if the bungalows are all maroot's off him which they are but the outdoors is not so here you have a simple case you could sweep up all the areas that's a no problem but then again there's an israelite of america this is i sort of have stanbroke and it's interesting how people are focused on every nuance he's speaking about er pesos he says very positive because people are afraid to eat the soothes in the house at least the the harlem to be the outside in the backyard and then of course you have the the the the emergency there's crumbs on the floor to get the broom what are you sweeping outdoors yeah he's worrying about you know crumbs which is important what about sweeping this is the rappon so he says if you want to you know worry about crumbs then don't eat outside now the embassy was also worried about crumbs you know and he quotes the rush that just after the finish just shake off all the crumbs peru and the male aboutly don't worry about the crumbs they don't count but if you say this sock over on your house you might get thrown out you know but so if you want to clean the crumbs fine but don't eat over an area that you're not asleep now a bungalow comedy is typically most of it is enumerative i think and i have to know macias but be careful in the house is fine outside even in a bald spot area where there's no grass growing so sweeping is feasible but it's still us as we said someone pointed out to me he was sweep interesting idea he swept this porch upstairs which is part of the house there's no shaykhs that was but he i guess i'm not sure why he does it but he wants to just set up just he's just a little lazy instead of picking up the dust he sweeps it out onto the yard hope no one's under him you know when he throws it out but he says is that a problem of master gumas i said why if dust goes on to the ground it it it levels it somewhat okay i don't know how much dust he has if he has chicken bones and he has you know popcorn and that stuff it's not going to you know be makeup brow mash for gourmets but again more take there from here to there and also you might hit someone so i can't say it's it's the right thing to do but it doesn't seem to be a problem for goombas what's interesting is that sweeping the as we said should be no shiloh whatsoever wait what oh so much is a good point that's why the origin one of the restraining hold it's awesome sweeping but the hector is you know it's not a perfect hectare that if it's graph sorry if it's repulsive number one and number two what you know you're going to argue is we could say that this is tilted outside i'm not touching the muksa even though that's the derek of sweeping book of dirt but this is what the police can say it's a combination until tomorrow is a hetero perhaps a heter but certainly a graph children but that's if someone's moving only muktsa and moving with a broom that's not a hetero because that would be the way of moving this type of much now the next thing about sweeping baklao it's interesting a number of years ago i heard this shyla and i posted totally forgot about i learned recently i realized this is something you talk about in one of the popular camps they invested they bought a few hundred old-fashioned brooms now again the young boys one i were talking about but old-fashioned brooms or old-fashioned brushes basically were made out of straw if you went to the barber and after you finished cutting your hair he dutifully took an old-fashioned brush and he cleans you off from the hip that's made out of straw now it can make a broom or a brush out of straw so they gave out these brooms and told the boys to sweep so one from about now to use this broom i learned and look and i'll use such a broom i said wait a minute you know i'll use it on friday maybe he's going to friday after shabbos but is that true you can't use such a broom on shabbos so raise that teller in our sea base with the mahabharata there are more aids quoting with him you're now going to use a old-fashioned brush to clean clothing kiss mayhem now he's not talking about sweeping uh says he's talking about using an old-fashioned brush that's made of these straw bristles that break sucked mr even though this you're talking about there's no question of lebron for some reason let's say the feathers it's not it's not dirt in the clothing itself the concern that lieberman the question is by cleaning you're breaking the bristles of the brush now the mr brewer adds steve cotton your dalid who i've been you can't sweep with this type of broom is made out of straw bristles okay now the sheila is what's wrong with breaking bristles so mr brewer says what do you mean you're saying cicada you're breaking your calendar frank the ties to muah and if you break it you're only metallica you're not breaking to use it suramar gonna have ramen steve cotton hey says well it's not necessary but then again it's still in israel and so he says awesome but the most thorough criticism of this sack marie cash is printed on the page in the new shogun he says some people ask for using these old-fashioned brooms or brushes no one's gracious to them because first of all the only issue is when it's obscuration is it obscuration when you sweep with an old-fashioned screw or boom it breaks and even if you do break it's a numbers cabin so he says you don't have to worry about using an old-fashioned broom or a brush but no one's saying it's about the obsecration but you're looking at the thumbs you've gotten bases the whole sweeping is not a vad secretion what is it carbon observation close enough no so using an old fashioned was also carbon observation i the taina what is the issa it's only saison but then against soyuzness there upon it and that's why the mr bureau says it's like saison and shouldn't be used now la maison brewer in diva moscow so i have another problem with using these type of brooms besides he says maybe top you have a taina it's not a bad day whatever it is but he quotes the bach with the bach says first of all your time is your point using the boom is also and then the back adds miracle of the default using an old-fashioned boom of the coil now what does he mean very passionate because typically an old-fashioned broom was used on dirt floors very much associated with malach and also at times the the bristles break so in a person's mind he's doing something wrong either it's awesome or he might bring to islam so the bach says you can't use a old-fashioned movement out of the hell he asked what's the issue of breaking a broom when you break a bristle something is beautiful language he says i don't say what size about it called suras akhlee kayenas you didn't break the broom you broke off one of the 237 bristles so nothing happened to the broom it's like someone said i can't walk the shoeland job because i'm wearing out my shoe so it's a shoe is it nikka is it something broken so kazanish felt that it's not soy say because the broom is still functional so what that is it is sim zilsel shabbos using this type of broom is also sharpest so we see a new factor to consider even if it's not awesome because you're talking about a house that's maruti but there's something called zilsel shoppers now the mice are our brooms today and come out you don't even see any longer these old-fashioned brooms are made of synthetic that are durable they don't break so the chira there is no issa of using a broom today indoors i should mention that had a point because to use these brooms that they had in camp on shabbos even in the bungalow that's that even in the bungalows or the bunk houses that are all marutif is still awesome that's drama that's the back that's whatever the reason is but it's still awesome but the but the point is that these bristles if they break we have a rama there are some that make them but we follow the rambla but certainly sweeping air of shabbos there's no hashash so if someone doesn't want to sweep he has to find a better excuse that's not the excuse but you might have one last possibility for a good excuse and that is the first says this twice but not not clearly i want to make a point you learn you'll see what i mean he brings the bach that sweeping could be over the he says therefore since sweeping might involve over the coil it could die to have a special broom the cover chapus it doesn't spell that out but he says the problem is sweeping might involve the of the coil aspect now we find in shin zayin gimmel regarding a certain type of scratcher that even though there's no malacha but it's still over the royal you have to have a special scratch of the covered chavis now if you have something designated coverage it takes away brazil so implies again you look inside it's not in the federation but he implies him will spell this out that if indeed the problem with sweeping you have to have a special shabbos broom that you designate for shabbos doesn't have to be dramatically different but based on gimbal now la mesa there are some that have a special shabbos broom and tavi lembro but the embassy's most never heard of this and i can understand why because the bach or the bialog even in their time certainly the past times sweeping was more often also than that because sweeping men sweeping the floor like the floor was still an earthen floor so sweeping was almost synonymous with malachi that's using a typical broom which had made of straw that broke is also awesome so this is a classic over the hill whether the israel is you might think it's awesome or you might come to do an islam but sweeping had two reasons why it was synonymous with malachi but in tough shinpei bays you're not going to find an earthen floor and you're not going to find a old-fashioned broom so and your moisture's quota saying the same thing that our brooms in our homes is a totally benign activity not the house and not the broom so although and the truth is to be allah himself right look at the lotion it's not so compelling as people say it is but as someone does it so certainly if you're asked to sweep and you don't have a special shabbos broom i would sleep and shalom this special hummer but again using samia to over the coil that's pack a problem i'll give you a motion in both say that brushing teeth with a toothbrush involves skrita whether you use water or toothpaste might be let's say you very much want to brush your teeth so take a toothbrush don't add water and brush your teeth but they say that you have to have a special shabbos toothbrush that i very much understand because toothbrush toothpaste the toothbrush brushing teeth is always in malacca still is you've found a kiddish without toothpaste and water but the act is an act that's too closely resembles malacha so then you have to have a special toothbrush but sweeping in our times it's not close to moloch so again if someone wants to have a special way a broom look of a chavez tava la brock a toothbrush is a better idea in fact someone told me they're even selling special shabbos toothbrushes but love that you have to buy them afk but there's something special to cover chapters now let's discuss shoveling snow on shabbos yum you think there's no snow but chaba certainly there is so the embassy is within an aero no problem of carrying what should be the problem so reminds uh part of a different share but we discussed this once that people think snow is much it's not true mr burns says that's that rain even though it fell from says that snow was also not much the fact that it became snow when it fell but it's not enough of an oiler militia's as saying in one place that snow is much but most place can say clearly that rain or snow is not looked now assuming that's of course correct so what's wrong with shoveling you're not carrying you're an arif if you you're moving snow but no it's not much so here we come to an interesting point because let's say you're living in a suburban learning muncie and you have a a walkway to your house to the school and you want to shovel that so let's think can you sweep that area assuming we say that this outdoor area in the suburban area is right in the russian and you can't sweep this same walkway so how could you shovel the issa is not sweeping per se will soon see even mopping floors also even putting wood on the floor it's treating the ground because you're coming to level it so sweeping with a broom is mash mugumoist and shoveling with a shovel is the same could concern and that's why it's passion and takasaw the maxillo points this out and sim and sam strassen is as well that that shoveling in a place you can't sweep has the same issue like sweeping now in new york city that you're allowed to sweep the outdoors see a lot of shovel but in a place that you can't sweep that area shoveling is the same within the same treatment of ground like sweeping and washing floors and adding water now the embassy is the mccarthy and the harvest europe 200 so i don't know what he means you allowed to clear the snow from the derek means a window well that's maruti but if he means derek we are in the city as a name and this is a tattoo maker even in russia unless he's going to make it because then once we wrote to his mutton but definitely the police can seem to assume that if the place you can't sweep you can shovel as well now both the marsulio and the shabbos shabbat they point out that initially stamped the shovel on shabbos would be azil shabbas it's just not becoming for shops but as shabbos rebate points out if you leave the snow and someone trips in it a younger person an older person is a hashash of sakana so avada din if long was in the area if you'll add a sweep and that wouldn't be a problem how could you be michael mahmer in in in in ziles or shabbos and when someone comes to school he's gonna trip a person that that older person especially that falls it could be a six months rehabilitation so he's making the mocking that you have concern of people tripping now to call a guy he's a better option because i the akam we don't have to worry so much about these this concern now the big question is washing floors on shoppers as i told you earlier we're talking now about pouring water with a sponger not mops so this is two gemaras one is a mishna actually they didn't wash the floor on the base amigos even though it was a bloody mess quote unquote and shabbos cuffed them off from the base they didn't wash the floor in america and tucker that's why the rambam and of gimbal followed by the shahandar and shima mazaya and gimo and i quote them which is kamat lush of the rambam and listen closely you're going to find something very surprising [Applause] you can't wash the floor on shabbos even if you have tiled or the stone or shyish or marble floor now that's called a double steering because we just learned a few minutes ago that the rambam and the hold your ladder sweep if it's marutif the next thief and in the ram is the same but washing the floor is awesome why and the poison that even if the whole cities is awesome [Music] that what i think it means to say and this is an important point our attitude is we keep talking blindly with a moon we don't ask questions it's us it's us now la maison if you have two factors number one the gemara says merutsev is the story of ammeimer and the whole city is maruti so you could say your city is musk from the israel but we don't just ignore takanas hazel so when we find in the gemara that marutsu this muta likes sweeping amer so it's mutt but when imar speaks in the base hamikdash or in in the more about the americas there's no mention of the road to being the base mixer wasn't rusev so the therefore sucked the market missioner logic dictates don't tempo i will say but i have to and and the base mixer didn't have to it was blood all over the floor in other words the the starting point is we have to be shameless shabbos keep taking without making his bones no of course if the gemara says there's a hectare of cool color by calling him a that's fine but doesn't say that and that's why the maison the mccabe who are making sweeping but washing floors is categorically awesome mr bureau quotes slaughter that washing floors is more involved with deeply acai once you've been miami the character you might come to do other repairs which is in other words sweeping is not as serious as but at the end of the day this is this special point is that not always that we may go by call a maruti i'll give you a wonderful example i thought it says tells the rolling nuts on the ground because you might end up to flatten out the ground and that's awesome even if the whole city is marooted why i sweeping is mutton parrots you could you could live without rolling nuts but you can't live without sweeping the floor now you'll ask me why we when we grew up in bar park williamsburg i saw both we rolled nuts on pesach so ramos says we have a little truth about that one but it doesn't justify it rolling nuts is the issue is out for goombas right but since you could live without it there's no have to even call the amarotsum that's similar to madiken but sweeping at soyuz and this certainly explains why the meaning was throughout the dairies that washing floors was much more humble now is there a hectare so the mushroom in the hospital from a hospital a camp and during the summer it's a balagan at night and soup spilled and challenged built and this flies and you have to wash the floor so i'm talking now not about mapping i'm talking about medicine or the cmm make an interesting observation since the only reason why mapping is also is like the magnificent because there's no tsar so if i tell you there is a torah so you're back to the hectare so these gedaily israel have said that shabbos also says this that if visits so you're back to square one that's like sweeping so washing floor is also period even kali um if you could say it's a real syrup it's much to wash the floor with with spraying the water and then using a sponge now the the masala in aloe vera is a very thorough criticism of this sock he speaks about a he's asked by a farmer that has a milk on the on the floor with the cows are and there's a shaft taking a trip and and his main point is that if there's a concern you might come to malacha you're not making if something is it looks like malacca then you could be make but it's something that's going to bring to malacca he writes very emphatically that there's no hatter even to wash the floor that doesn't involve he says what should the farmer do that is a problem so have a guy wash the floor spray water but again this question can a yid open the take a spray hose spray water on the kitchen floor is what's interesting is that that really there's a beautiful thought to be mako because why is it us to sweep the worst snail sweep on earth and floor i'm not doing anything wrong but secretia goombas if you look at the end of rage noon gimbal the the ramos says that even though for you to do a certain act it's all south of secretia but i the accomplished gracious motto and the rav explained because he's not you tell him to do a hector and isa comes out or the d-boy whatever the hell he is but what's osteoporosis croatia is mother teller going to do so it's a beautiful ramallah here because ramo here says even though you can't sweep the floor or do any of these issues so that's why the washing your floor is using a map is certainly much worse because that's the only thing is there's a one of the earlier pie skin quoted by the heineken ice cream and that was the the oil yakov was yes why people wash the floor with them they tell the guy to wash with them up so his your side is you tell them to wash the floor they could put water on the floor and they could use their hands or whatever if it's feasible to wash the load without using a map and making stata a dieter then after okay good luck that you have to know them but see is it but one thing i will say that using uh going wash the floor with the old-fashioned or the modern way of using a sponge and a uh and a space border that looks in this particular case question if there's a lot of water spilled on the kitchen can you just push it out with a uh with the the wiper whatever you have you know and push it into the ground in the actually the drain so that i saw even the master leo and i and i i in alex zion was very mocked with this but that's okay you're not washing where you're getting rid of the water a tricky question is can you spot floor spot clean a floor a little stain that's nasty and you want to clean that it's not non-copper choppers it's only a small area am i washing the floor but cheney we would say zilbasa timer what's the problem you're cleaning the floor who cares a little bit or a lot so only i was thinking is if we got in halloween or nine days with an issue of kebas the pricey allowed to make spot cleaning it's not considered keepers so maybe heroes is not considered washing the floor spot cleaning a kitchen floor of course without skitter you're not using a sponge or a map is okay there ain't no shame but the emma says it's a big malcolm khalid because there it's totally in the issa of washing so laundering is us this fathering is not awesome but here zeal busts the time and the issues you're getting on your hands and knees you're cleaning the floor you're treating the floor and that's where the master leo and ahmad rage test rejects his head says is that a head then you're washing the floor mildly cut the cool it's still you're doing enough of the the problem that we're concerned about now this is easier said than done if a person has let's say a child pardon me left soy or whatever or mayor climb on the floor so then the mock himself you can rely on these sheets is that part of it is okay but again the point is that what the person but there's a very nasty stain a two-day three-day yomtiv so what i would say what the hazarish one said when someone asked them they brought a hat and the hat was fell on them the mud then it was dirty could i clean this on shabbos i was going to show such a beautiful cover chop his hat the greatest cover champions is to keep charges so if i mean i think eating throughout the diaries and freshly you know in our times also after two or three days of the floor is dirty so that's covered sharpies don't worry okay just don't don't write them until they have to um shouldn't see the floor now a few quick questions i wanted to mention about a carpet cleaner it's outdated in a certain sense in and out but the kit's a copper cleaner besides the prime of malaban because it cleans the copper which is a beggar and it gets into the fibers some of them pull out some of the fibers of the carpeting and says the case that's our sugar of using an old-fashioned broom molly breaking the broom of maori breaking the carpet okay i'll just say it's also of the coil and they all say we don't use the copper sweep on shabbos now somebody asked about washing a dirty countertop he heard episodes awesome so this is a beautiful child i appreciate the question because he led me to a beautiful point because la maison the lamb they might say if you ought to wash the ground and the countdown is as bin of karaka maybe you can't watch the countertop but then again zilbasa timer works the isa really there's no problem in washing a tiled floor what's wearing the room but since many floors either used to or still have dirt so washing the floor is also ought to concrete with surface i've never seen a countdown made of dirt so the whole doesn't apply i am and he rejects this as a torius in this child now usually somebody else can i use a cleanser as long as you know my reach it's not a substance you could use um a liquid even bleach ajax those things are not looked up because you could use them when you need it okay polishing furniture cleaning windows is considered of the coil because that's done usually before shop is but cleaning a countertop is fine but last but not least and this really is a good way to end the suggest because it has a lot of our points but it brings out us had the following question he was really asked about a basic he said it was stuff and you could you use a plunger to clear it so he adds parenthetically but he didn't put it in parenthesis he says no one's going to ask this question but i'm asking it anyhow why is the motherboard out of flush since the basic key say is part of the ground why is that including the issue so he says it can't be because it's awesome why not he says i it's it's material it it's it's whatever it's made out of but it's not the earth but based on here when smith was made the floor was made of shiesh and instills us at the wash so his paris his music tower is since the maga mystery the only reason it's also to wash a non-earthen floor is because of its uh because there's no toilet so this thing division so he's using the head of the margin mishna in the base of kisi but the billionaires died i think it's even more positive we could say and that is basically that there was never a basic key invented that's made out of earth so just like a counter top is out of suffix here also and i saw the megillah safe and simulated gimbal then hey he says like more lumbers the fact that it's karakol agave doesn't have impact this sugya about gazelle but i think what it means to say is that it has to be a shasta you might come to mash for gumas there's no way in the world mashwa gomez in the base akisi but what i thought was beautiful is you see have to be accounted for we don't just make coolest everything even this has to be understood why i wouldn't talk to you all after foreign [Music] is [Music]
