CHAZARAH - Menachos Daf 37 | "Nothing but the Daf" with R' Eli Stefansky

[music] Good morning. No. Oh yeah. Yeah. [clears throat] Seven lines from the bottom. Every few minutes you should move your filling around >> move or touch. >> Just move a little move cuz the it seems like that when you move it adjust a little adjustment. If you just touch like this, you're trying to re redo the sort of it could be just touch. The point is not to have you know that you're wearing from that sits here the has that sits only mentions name once. It should be on your forehead always. And we learn you have to constantly think about the sits in how many times is name mentioned in fill in >> 21 times. So it's 21 times more [snorts] than the certainly you should move your filling around once in a while. That's why I said yesterday if you go like this it's even though it's uh not not for the lining up of the nose and the but just to move it. Now they ask what's the connection the Hashem's name is on the outside only how could you compare the from the seems to be a lot stronger than the of nevertheless there is some sort of in other words it's not a serious bomb but it's enough to to to focus on this now we're going to talk about why we wearin on our left hand and not on the right. Everything we do is on the right. I don't know which one it is. It's the left hand. Let's see the a second. We say it every day, but which one is >> I think it's Yeah. Yeah. It's a mistake in my we're referring to the left hand small. How do we know it's left? So, let me just show you real quickly. Just do a a quick there's three we're going to see three over here. Tanakama says the word yad means left. Anytime says yad I'll prove it to you. Says no I have a heish. Their tying your fillin has to be like the muz with your right hand. So too you do with your right you tie with your right meaning you have to put it on your left and says then it says the weak hand. So those are the three shittas. Let's see inside. It says he brings three says my hand created the earth and my right hand at the same time I I I I created the heaven. So what does y mean? If if a created the shayim with his right that means the one left over his other hand is his left hand. So means left and I'll prove it to you again. It says when she killed Cisro it says she took how do you say in English >> the peg? She took the peg with her left hand. She knocked it into his head while he was asleep and drunk with a hammer. So you can't can't hold the peg with the same hand as the hammer. The hammer goes in the right. It says that means the peg was in the other hand, the left hand. So when it says yad by itself means left in the right, that's something else. But yad means left. Another. So again we have the yad and we have yin. So means the left says the so on the spot says what does means and Tyus brings him also means that his he his nose was he didn't have a nose basically it was sunk in nose says Tyus it makes no sense to call a person a gudle by a derogatory name sunk Duncan knows that's what you're going to call him. So he says, "Oh means the name of a place." I argue with this because you tell me means the left and that's why we put our on our left. The famous notice switched his hands. It says means the right. So says yeah when the says together with the right that then it's the right hand but by itself when it says by itself it means the left and finally we have you don't need all this it says just like you write a with the right hand so too you have to tie You're filling with your right hand like we do. Most people, they they take it, they tie it, they go like this. The right is doing the job, but you're filling our left on your left hand. So, let me ask you a question. What if a cipher is a righty? He's a righty, but he's not bad with his left hand, and he writes him a with his left hand. Kosher or >> anybody want to jump in here? The answer is it's possible. You have to write the if you're a righty with your right hand. You do it with your right. So you put your fill on with your right onto your left. If you're going to tie it with your right, then where are you placing it? You're placing it on your left arm. If he argues and he says the word can mean the right hand, not the left. So how does he know they have to put the on the left? He learns it from what does say you can see in the red. He learns from the he just like so too. I'm thinking that we should put a screen over here. >> Screen over here. >> Not bad for you. And I just saw the guest turning his head like this. We'll put the screen over there. Just have screen it up a little bit. Says finally the word you could split it in half. Rashy's first is that the makes it into which is weaker than a zer. And then the famous that for me it's famous so I'm connected to that when I see it in the different different times we learned it was the weaker of the two hands usually when you're a righty your left hand is the weaker hand perhaps it's referring to the one that has the strength the he at the end could be so you and which means which means strength. A lot of times the says that the are interchangeable but that's when there's nothing else going on. Over here we're telling you Ka means weak. So why should I stick in a something that's not there and say oh the means and it means strong. The opposite of the this is the so we go with the like since it says hey it means the weaker one means the the left hand says that comes to include somebody doesn't have the the hand part up to the elbow. So he only has the upper part. He has he has a a bicep. So he should tie his tin on his bicep. This is where it becomes tricky. And if you have a pencil, you should just write it in over here. It's not talking about that he he has from the elbow up. Over here he doesn't have anything. So think about it. A person that doesn't have his left arm at all, it's cut off by the by by shoulder. So what should he do? Should he put on filling or not put on film? Should he put on fill in on the right arm? On the one hand, it should be it should be your weaker arm. It should be the left. If you have a right and a left, you put on the left. You only have one. So what do you do? So you would say you put it on, put it on the right. That's not what the Gar says according to this man. If if it's cut off all the way to the shoulder, you should put on fillain. Says no. Person doesn't have an arm at all. You have to you have to put you have to put the fillain on the right arm. So it comes out like this. Comes out. If a person was uh bar mitzvah and he put his fillin on his left and he had an accident where his left arm got chopped off. So now at age 20 he has to switch over to be put his fillin on the right. That was one of the answers to the question according to this lefty has to put on his fillin on the opposite arm because to him the left is the strong the weaker one is the right. So he puts it on his right arm. So it usually goes by it goes by the most a lot of people that are lefties have they have the question am I a real lefty how do I bat how do I throw a ball how do I eat and it goes it boils down to how do you write just if you write with your left hand and you do everything else with your with your right that's where it becomes a little bit little bit of a of a problem So I have that with my son. At least that's what he thinks in his head that he's he's a righty just he writes with his left. So I went to Rabbi Goldstein. You guys might have to rethink this. Rabbi Goldstein himself. First of all, he's the big po here in one of the big po in a huge huge huge and he uh he's holding in all everything. So but he has this issue. So I brought my son there and he spoke to him back forth and basically what he told my son to do. Yo, I got to revisit it because that was his, you know, now that he's a little bit more mature two years later, maybe he'll think about it differently. There's also this I think with him there was more like I want to fit in with everybody else and do what everybody I don't want to. So he told him he should wear his filling like everybody else but by take it off and put it on the other arm for a minute and and that's what Rabbi Goldstein does. Everybody knows takes you have to put it backwards because you think over here it says you should wear a lefty should wear like a righty there's no difference a person who can control everything with both of his hands. Where do you put the fillin? On your muscle. Right over here on the muscle. You have to put it over here between the eyes on top of your head. What's that? The head is so it's where the the the soft spot. Now, not everybody knows. I showed this once before. There's actually two soft spots in a baby. when people have sweaters or they have a sweatshirt or they have one of these tight shirts. So sometimes it doesn't go all the way all the way up to your shoulder and it kind of uh hangs out on your on the muscle and that could be problematic if your fillin are too low down low below the muscle is is a big is is a no no. So it has to be on the muscle. Now, what you're supposed to do is the muscle will see it a tiny bit towards the heart. A little bit. You don't put it straight up on the muscle. A little bit like this. Top line. You can read with me. And many people are on this. They don't realize where you're supposed to put your a lot of the tin is lowered down. Now if you have to look at your hairline, not where your hair finishes, but your hairline where it grows out of. So in my case, my hair starts over here. So I have to put my tin over here. If my end of the fillin are with my hair, not y not now has a problem because they have they have very large. So I recommend even with your large fillin they they should go back to anything that the baby's head is is soft push it down but even if it comes off your hairline a cimeter says repeat this again and again it's just a centimeter I don't know what to tell you that's what he says says the entire thing 100% in a place where the root of the hair you could pull it out it becomes bald this little part this this part of the I'm sorry Not my is the back. Thank you. It should be resting on the beginning of the where the hair comes out. And we have long hair to to have your your your your forehead goes over and over and over explains it. Doesn't go to where your hair finishes. So it goes to where your hair starts and to be super mak and every minion you go to you'll find two people in that minion that don't know this and that's why you bring in a professional that tells you hey you're not wearing it right let me readjust your knot maybe your knot is too large so it falls to the front okay asks of person who has two heads which one of those heads should he Weird. Oh my. He was so upset at him. Why do you ask me such silly questions? Go go go go go or you accept upon yourself made fun of him and all of a sudden I had a kid I had a kid that was born with two heads how much I have to pay for this his first born you know it's male if he's your third child say that first Do I have to give double double? >> Two brothers came to one brother had one head, other brother had two heads and he wanted a double in the thing. So said pour hot water on one of the heads and we'll see. So it's one person because you it hurt both heads. >> Wow. That was so the the elder person came and told him a lot of times Sabah is he told him you have to give 10k I would think that if akar gets killed before he's 30 days old maybe he should pay the you're right they have to pay when he's 30 30 days But maybe it's a that's when you pay it up, but you have to pay for for being born. So if he didn't survive, okay, so he's not a he's not a baby that you have to pay for. But this is a baby that should have survived. He just was killed. So maybe you have to pay the So the is actually asking so two somebody with two heads is not going to be able to survive. Maybe cuz either today because you see that these twins are like 30 something years old. they survived or maybe the as I saw they bring rashy he says there's a mus called anything more is as if it doesn't exist so if it doesn't exist so now you have two heads it's one extra as if it doesn't exist if it doesn't exist then it's a tra the head makes it a tra that it it's physically not going to survive but it is a whatever that means when it comes to the says says for each head you have to give five shekel. Now it's very possible that the baby was born its body first and when most of the body comes out there's a of and it goes by each head and it has two heads you have to pay double we just learned on top the hand means the muscle the the bicep where do you get this from on top on the the high part of your arm if you and I were to learn the positive by ourselves. We didn't know anything about fillin. We just fell off the moon. We would say you means on your hand. That's in Hebrew. Give me a give me your hand. Give me your This is your hand. Maybe put your fing right over here. Where do you get the muscle? [clears throat] Put it on your hand and on your head. When you put it on your head, you put it on the top of your head, the high part of your head. So too when it comes to the you put on the high part of your hand. No, you don't need to come on to that. You don't want to put your tin on a place where other people could see it. It's for you. It's a private testament. Test. I love that word testament. So it would come out like Shamshi brought the positive before come out. It's a pos you have to hide it. So let's see. It says you should put these words of on your heart. So that's why we come up with this thing that you put it on your Now if you put it over here, it's not next to your heart. What's next to your heart? On the bicep. Okay. They actually would turn it slightly. A little bit. Not a lot. Not straight up like this. A little bit. Usually when you tie it, if you're a writing and you tie it ashkaz or lit, I don't know. It gives it a little bit of a yank to the towards your heart, but you do the opposite. You pull some people pull the other way. So those people that pull the other way, they should probably try to tilt it a little bit more. Raashi who I'll remind he was the last one that had he was the wealthiest of the generation but also the biggest he wrote the Gimra he authored [clears throat] Shas have his his his uh his sleeve was ripped why it's his rash because he had a wound it wasn't because he was poor he had a wound now you know that if you have a boo boo on your bicep put your twillin on and then you put your h your your sleeve over it you know if it ever happened I remember like certain times like you got injured and bad whatever it was it doesn't feel good that pressure so he wanted to relieve the pressure so he he tore his shirt becomes filling and here comes the question that I asked in the beginning this year is it of the cover or is it a nice thing to do or it's you don't have to do it at all isn't it that nobody should see it. It's for you to have a a testament with the not for others. The saying put it in a place like sort of well not really but maybe it should be in a place where you could cover it. Not that you have to cover it. Nevertheless, there is an inion to cover it. If you know some you're on vacation, you're in a t-shirt and whatever and it's not that's not the end of the world. It's better to cover it. That's that's what they passing. It's better to cover it. >> No, no, no. That's you want to show that you have a vert that's something that you that you show. [clears throat] How do you know that you put the fillin on the high part of the head? Maybe you should place the filling right over here. I was in a minion and I saw a guy literally like this. Not like this, like this. So that guy I didn't want to say a word to because I figured this is a shittita. This is already a shita. This is not like oh a mistake. It was it was placed there. And that's how the Quran that's how the and if they were wear if they would wear it film today that's exactly how they would wear it. like this guy. There's a there's a shi but it's they are what do you call >> they were like this >> there's there's only if somebody is in a lot of pain he shouldn't rip his hair out of his head. Where do you rip your hair out of your head? Right. This this area right over here you become bald. This is of ripping your hair out is on top of your head. So too, [cough and clears throat] excuse me, when it comes to put in that area. Here's a question. Are your eyebrows considered part of your skin or they're part of your hairy head for if you have a tarass on your where your hair grows it's one as I'm going to show you in a second if it's on your plain skin it's another what are your eyebrows what do you think so that this is a question that they asked the and the all knew the answer from this gimmar right over It says like this. So let me show you real quickly. If a person has saras, he has a a blemish. [cough and clears throat] So over here the blemish is on a skin. So you need to have in order for it to be real sass, it has to have two hairs. But if the blemish grows on the head where your hair is over there, it needs to be two yellow hairs. So the says [clears throat] you could if it's if if you put it on your hand, it's two two hairs, two white hairs. So two, when you put it on your head, it should be in a place where all you need is two yellow hairs. So that's on the top of your head. But let's say you want to put it over here. So now you have both yellow and white. Yellow is because you put it next to your eyebrows, over there by your eyebrow. It has to be yellow. And on the skin part, it's white. So that's different. Said you only need two hairs. Now all of a sudden you need four hairs. So you can't that that's how I know I don't put fillin over there. Has to be similar to your fill which is only two hairs and you have the white hairs. Next. Oh, maybe we can't go next. So I guess we'll just stop over here.
