CHAZARAH - Menachos Daf 43 | "Nothing but the Daf" with R' Eli Stefansky

[music] Good morning. We're four lines from the bottom of you have a blue string. You find blue strings in the middle of the street. Are you allowed to use them? So the says there's no test to see if it's if it's the fake thing or if it's the real thing. And therefore you can only purchase from a professional to make sure it's not the it's not indigo to fill in. You could check you could tell the the is for you look inside. You see the extra words extra letters. I'm going to show you now a tus that you've never seen before in your life. You'll never see it again. It's the only time in basically maybe one other time in chabas that he brings the raam places bring the rama. [snorts] Okay. So look at it, remember it since as we're going to see and the same thing is going to happen with basically but since need what are the elements in fillin there's something they could see physically and there's something that you cannot tell even with a computer a computer scan can't see what can't see whether or not if you had you could check for missing letters on a on a computer Nevertheless, you have to buy it from a professional because the the whole the everything has to be made when it comes to you could check to see if there's any letters missing since they don't require. You don't have to make the she could buy it from anybody. What are you talking about? There's no test for he had. If you want to remember the way he did it, just remember the word. There is a way. You take some alum. You take some fenugreek juice or may and you take urine regime that is 40 days old according to rash it could be fermented no that's one shot from a baby that's 40 days old but basically it's 40 days old cuz the longer the longer it stays the more potent it becomes the more ammonia I don't know what it is a different chemical and you leave it in this mixture from the night to the If the comes off, it starts becoming weak. Then you know that it's not real. It's they showed us in the they took real indigo >> which is which you cannot differentiate the two colors put side by side a lot. >> One of them is it's not the same. And if it stays the same color, then it's you take this hard um yeast, you know, like a starter, barley starter, you take the you put it inside and you you bake it. If it changes for the better, becomes darker, blue, whatever it is, then how do you remember? If a person says a lie and he adds a little bit of a lie to it, it's it makes it worse. If you if you add to the good, it makes it better. Okay? So, basically, we have two simum here. We have the the the the alum the glim and then you have putting into the yeast. Question is, you told me that there's no way to check. There's no way. Here we have we have two tests, not one says. No, no, you didn't understand. We're not looking to see if the could come off. We're talking about the part, the stuff that has to do with people's mind. There's no way to check that. That you can never check. What does that mean? How does it apply to the the when you when you dip that the you dip the wool into the into that dye. So two things happen. First of all, first of all, you can't use the actual wool for titus and also you can't use the dye anymore. Both of them are no good. They're both tima. The actual titus is possible. Why? because you you you didn't have cavana for instance you had cavana to check it to see if it's the right color so that I'm scared that somebody might pass it off if you found some strings in the street maybe somebody took it from the timma strings and those are puzzles or they came from the second dye the marishi die mareni is no good and that's what it means there's no checking yeah you could check if it's versus but you can't check if the was made with the proper says Mashki who came from Mashki. He brought from in the years of did a testim so on test number one it failed immediately the color diminished and then they did a test number two the yeast testim became even better there's a contradiction in the test one test it uh how do you say in English it became uh faded Thank you. It faded. And then the second test, the reverse happened. It got stronger. So they wanted to say, look, you you you didn't pass the first test. You're out. Says we have a contradiction. So there's only two options. Either there's no third option in those days. So what is it? These two tests go in conjunction. They go together. First you do you perform test number one. If you fail test number one if it if it if it's good, it's great. You don't have to do test number two. But if it fails test number one, then you could do test number two. And what happens? In other words, test number one is not a perfect science. If it fades on test number one, you still have a chance to use test number two. And if it actually goes, it becomes better with the yeast, then you know that it's still kosher. And they said these two tests go together. It's a double test. Says he would buy based on the price of that what that we have to understand that any that was used as a sample like they did in T all that stuff that he dunked into the it was I thought it was fascinating. I asked him to give me some of that secret sauce that we could use it, you know, maybe in braas, whatever. You put white wool in, you pull it out, it stays white. All of a sudden, in front of your eyes, it starts changing to blue. It's really cool. So that trying that as a you know, if I'm showing the shear, I cannot use that as as I didn't have this. So he was to buy it from I wonder if this is again because this line is tremendous. This is a line that we all you could read this line and just go and you could read this line and pause it for a second. This is what the generations before you and before you did it's like maybe that when you you act like a mench you do you do the right things you on you'll have they're connected the two things are connected the way the way we we act if somebody goes ahead and he buys since it's from the marketplace Somebody buys a talis that has senses on it in the market. If you buy it from a Jew, you should know that it's good. It was done. Depends. Nobody in their right mind today would do this. But imagine you buy from a from an Arab. those guys that sells those those birds that those chachkas the things that go like this and like that around the thing you know I'm talking about the the balloons that he also sells atalis if you buy it from an individual you should know it's possible if you buy it from a from a from a guy that that's that's his job to sell it's going to be kosher why because he doesn't want to ruin his name you could be we have a problem I have to undo all the tenses my so second rashi relax is that if you a person will buy a talis he'll give it to the z as payment and she'll take it and she'll use it to make up some story about a Jew and And that's a problem. He will pretend that he's Jewish. He'll wear a talis. We know with national waxman the three different stories that they went into the car because they saw like a on the dashboard. the guy or music different things put on his wife's clothing on his wife's clothing. So let's stop, think, analyze. What does it mean? How do you why would you put on your wife's clothing? A woman doesn't have to put on sites only if she doesn't have to wear tits at night. And then it becomes a mitz. If it's a mitzvah that you only only do certain times of the day, women are potter. But if a woman has to wear if is something that you wear 24/7 365. So it's not a mitzvah, then it's a regular mitzvah like everything else. And a woman is and therefore he puts on his wife's clothing because he holds that situs is something that you wear all the time. The problem is the next line. for and every morning he would make a problem why would he make a every morning if it's 24/7 365 make a once in your life and that's it you're done since he put the on his wife's clothing obviously it's something it's a mitzvah that doesn't have to do with time if so then why would he make a every morning what do you mean we do the Same thing with this now you don't wear on you can say okay my certain times [cough] but here's a that even during the day you're supposed to wear tin all day long so you can make 100 on filling you take it off when you go you go to the bathroom for instance the certain times it makes a big heick the bathroom creates a heick you're not aware fill in certain situations in the bathroom right you can't wear so that creates a break and when you put your fill on again you have to make a what about when you take off your talis and you go to the bathroom so that even though the says you should make but he brings the we at least I don't know what the spire seems like also since it's not a real because you could technically wear your towels in the bathroom you're not supposed to bring a beggative of into the bathroom so that's why a lot of people take off the k when they go into the But it's not like so it doesn't make a stop. It doesn't make a break. That's talis unless you take it off for a long time or whatever. You make also cuz you're also still wearing a tough cup. >> Okay. Yeah. Not a real break. >> You see that on filling you make a every time you take it off. So why did he make it in the morning? It should say that he made a on a five times a day. It's because very he's very he wouldn't take off his garment the entire day. So then why? So this is a beautiful rash. To understand the question, you have to see this rash. I just like this thing says says rash. He should make the whenus he obviously woke up to learn way before the morning as why did he make a then? Two hours before sunrise, three, who knows when Bash say, you hear this? They used to wake up to learn Ty in the morning says he made it when he changed from his pajamas, PJs into his clothing. When was that? That was during the daytime. He waited always. That's that's when he made the switch. He didn't he didn't turn put on his clothes when he woke up in the middle of the night. When the sun came out, then he put on his day clothes and that's when he made his brah once a day. This is a super interesting line here. You're going to have a lot of questions immediately is going to address them. Everybody's the question is of course who else is there? There's nobody else in besides even here it says a woman and a slave. Women are part of my grandma from like there's only three categories in say right even So 10 more since in certain situations doesn't have to connect with so I think somebody doesn't have doesn't have to wear there's a certain head of client when they wear their which began in particular >> the this week's parish. >> It's not so posit I'm just saying the say doesn't mean the latter walk around in the etc. Okay, but the point is it's not always them. It's a special special that they have while they do and therefore they are says how come says women are not since it says you have to see it so something in those days they didn't have fluorescent lights LEDs they didn't have lights you couldn't see you can't see you so then it's dependent on time women are potter or perhaps means you have to see it. So if a blind person can't see he's potter no means any type of clothing that you cover yourself. So why say why say is coming to exclude a night garment again night garment can doesn't mean that you're wearing a day garment during the night or it means a night garment like PJs could mean both we have two things that we could deduct. We could take off the the blind person's clothing or the night clothing. Who told you what to take off? Because everybody else could see it. So, it's not in the It makes more sense to take off the night garment because no one could see it. Say that at night you are. What do they do? We're going to get to real in a second. Just hold on tight. This is stuff that we did already actually and it's simple. It says four corners. It means to exclude. If you have a three cornered garment, you're not. But there's another option. Four could also mean that if you have five you potter who told you which one to take off maybe it's coming to exclude a five cornered garment but a three corn garment would be means every garment that includes the five obvious question why it says four you could exclude five you can exclude three who told you which one to exclude tell you why very simple Because a five corned garment also has four corners in it. To get to five, you have to do four. Fine. In a three corner garment doesn't have four corners in it. So therefore, it makes sense to to get rid of it. Okay. He uses they don't like at night. So why you have to see it? Look at this. So this is very important. That's it. Here's that when you why do we why do we wear you look at it and then you remember look at the and then you remember something that's dependent on it is connected in the beginning. That's what he did. He pulled the white wool out of the dye and it was white and suddenly part of it changed to blue. And then then he said, "Look, there's white and blue. You have to see the difference light. You can't tell the difference between blue the light blue and white. There's another one another that says you see these what are you supposed to remember? Not something that's dependent on it, but something that's next to it. climb to remember about also to remember that in there is no and right away it says right after it says you should make should remember all the second when a person becomes then all the mitzvah the first one of the first mitzvah he does in the morning is he puts on his that's when he becomes in all the mitzvah says this we said a few times already that is means is is 100 is 100 plus the tough is 400 600 the five kns and the eight strings 63 The reason this is equal to all the mitzvah human nature is when you see something, it reminds you of something. It reminds you of something, you do something. When you're exceptional at this mitzvah, you're you do it. I don't know how to translate Zor so well. You do it quickly. You do it properly. Then you and you see the the same. You see that? Look at this. Hashem loves us and he gave us m to surround us to protect us to watch over us. So how many is that? Two in our head and our hand it's two. How much is that? Another four says even though we pass in the radio says it's four but we said it's one but nevertheless it's four physical things that surround us. So total six And then you have a seventh on the door. That's why said seven things I have to give you. Was in the bath house. He didn't have his on. He didn't have on. How could I stand there without any mitzvah? We we walk around with the bismillah. That's that's one of the things that that protects us. So he was okay. He went from seven to eight. He was referring to the eighth day of the it it provides that you shouldn't sin. you nothing. But you have to have these tin on your hands. One day soon when comes we'll all be wearing all day long will save you when you have all these things around you. Why pick blue? The famous we mentioned it. It reminds us of the ocean. And the ocean reminds us of the heaven. And the heaven reminds us of the guys from gave me this. Evan sappir is similar to color of this is what the were made out of. Evan sappir. This is what they >> sappire. >> Sapphire. It says that the uh the describes the from the the easier the mitzvah the bigger the is. So it's much easier to get white than the blue. So you get a you get a bigger a bigger for not taking care of the white is why don't you do white blue? Okay. I didn't see this. I'm doing do this the first time with you. >> You should fetch me a signate ring made of pure gold. And you, my lad, should fetch me a clay signate ring. They both didn't bring it. What happened? I don't know. I'm just going to see this here. I don't know how long it is. I might be banging into But they both didn't bring it at them. Who gets a bigger punishment? Ah, dude. They got drunk in the bar. [panting] They came late. Okay, I got it. Now I got it. Who has a bigger punishment? The one that was supposed to bring the the the simpler one to do was get me a simple clay ring and you failed. >> Raoai, have a wonderful day. >> Merit the of spreading Torah throughout the world.
