CHAZARAH - Zevachim Daf 20 | "Nothing but the Daf" with R' Eli Stefansky

[Music] [Applause] Welcome. Welcome to all the many guests. We're holding by the wide lines. We know in the toy it says that you should right before you do the you have to wash your hands and your feet. That's called it's not a it's not like when you go to the mikvah. It's not like when you wash your hands in the morning to remove the tum. This is called kush. This is special. This adds an element of to your hands and your feet. So when the says you should do that, how does it work? says, "You take your right hand and put it on top of your right foot." You take your left hand, you put on your left foot. And then you turn on the faucet and you do. You take both hands, put one on top of the other, right on top of left, and you put your right foot on top of your left foot. And you do, you're exaggerating. It's impossible to do it. You will fall over. says, "That's a great Tina. You're going to fall over must mean that his friend is holding him up." Let me demonstrate. Okay, >> good >> like this. Right. You got to you got to put your right foot on top of your left. I have a bum knee, so I'm not going to try that. But says it's impossible. So, what's the difference if you put your right hand on your right foot and your left on your left foot or you do all four together and you need somebody to help you out? The question is, is it allowed when somebody holds you up? Yeah. If you put your body weight on it, it's not a good thing. So, you can learn it two different ways. The way means to sit. Why don't you sit down in the B mikdash and put your feet any way you want the right on the left and your hand right and left and then do turn on the faucet it's one of the and therefore any type of has to be standing we have here think about Aen a cayenne washes his hands once at 2:00 in the afternoon. Could he just go on like that for three, four, five days or he has to wash every time he does that? When does he have to continue washing? So we have a here Revi says that it lasts up until you wash your hands and then the clock starts ticking again is before whatever it is you look in the calendar tells you when is that's dawn sorry where am meaning works for the situation works means it destroys it comes the clock starts all over again it's a new day a new day requires [Music] holds that shak doesn't ruin anything. And we have a very very similar thing. If one of the was on top of the he was putting the the meat of the onto the all night long. Same exact same case according to since it's morning. It's you got to wash your hands again. Once you're ready, wash your hands. It lasts for 10 days. If you're able to stay up for 10 days and not eat for 10, go not go to the bathroom for 10 days, it could last for 10 days. The point is the the night time doesn't make the nothing changes the unless you change it. Unless you're one of the problems is of thinking about something else in middle that could ruin it. I need both cases of just the regular case and the case of a person doing if I just say the first one said it over there because he is not paying attention he's not concentrating he made a stop in the middle he took a break that break he might have forgotten about you have it's like wearing fillin right you can't you can't break the thought that you're wearing fillin you can't break the thought that you have a behold But in the case that he's on top of them sacrificing the one after another. So he's in constant thought maybe agrees that that the morning when the morning comes you don't have to wash your hands again. That's just the reverse. If I just said the case of him putting the bath the entire time that's why said that you don't have to wash your hands again because he's in constant motion with this mitzvah and he's not being but in a regular case he takes a nice gaz break an hour break so he forgot what he's doing maybe should he would agree that you have to wash your hands again no he holds that you don't have to wash your hands more than once in 10 days unless you go to the bathroom or whatever my time at the rebi Where did he get his whole from? It's not a So we have this over here. It says in the when he when you come into you should wash your hands and then you don't die or when you come close to the How do you say in English? >> Approach. Thank you. Approach. So which one is it? Is it when you come into the to the to the Azara or is it when you approach them is they seem to contradict each other. So each one is going to grab one word and say that the other word helps him out. Says you only have to do it once when you come not when you approach. What is Reb going to do? It would only say when you approach. It doesn't say when you come in. Every time you go to the in one day you go 25 times to the you have to wash your hands 25 times. That's why the tire tells us no one time per day. Once every 24 hours in other words the clock starts ticking in the morning going to do. Yeah. Very nice. It says, but it also says every time you approach I would think when you come to B. So if you come to B just to visit, just to look around, yeah, you go into bells, you're not going to go, you just want to see what's going on, how big, large, this, that. So maybe you have to wash your hands. No, it's also has to do with you have to do be performing. Sorry. How could you think that if you walk into you have to wash your hands? It says you have to perform the the goes into the mikvah how many times? >> Five. >> Five times. How many times does he wash his hands with the k? >> 10. >> 10. Because every time he goes into the mikvah, he washes his hands once before and once after. Hands and feet in the kar. The first time he washes his hands, right before he goes into the mikvah is whether his clothes are removed or not. But the second time, so he goes into the mikvah, that's for sure without clothing. He comes out of the mikvah and he and he goes to the k again and he washes his hands and his feet after the mikvah. Because once again, now we understand a little bit better. Mikvah does what? Mikvah removes Toma. What does the K do? It's not about to. It's about adding gusha. So just because you went to the mikvah and you have no toma, it you still need a gusha. It gives you how does it give you gusha? How? Because it's anaris. The the k is a clicharis. This thing right over here. It's a holy vessel. The watering is holy. So it gives you holiness. In the second time around, the second time he does this, he performs the the the k the the the clothes are 100% done according to everybody. Why? How do you know? That's what the says because it says you have to be ready to go. You can't like, oh, I have to get dressed and ready to go. You have to be like a fireman. You know, they go to sleep. or like the Kim in Gaza, they're sleeping with their boots on. They have to be ready to go. They can't like, oh, I have to get dressed now. It's too late. They have to he has to be ready to go. And then he washes his hands. So he wash boom. He does that to to put the here. You know what it is? Is take the the buser and throw it onto the Isn't that? If that's you need to wash your hands, why does have to tell us again? says I think you only have to wash your hands when it's something important like something that if you don't do you don't get aap throwing the meat on top of the if you forget to do it and you don't do it it's not the end of the world you still get a kapara maybe I'll think you don't have to wash your hands next on top three lines from the top asked the according to who says anybody remember who says that there's no such thing as daytime comes around and you have to wash your hands again you can go for 10 days straight who says that according to that does not ruin the what about the actual water. We're talking about the human being. We're talking about the cayenne cen wash his hands. According to you can go 10 days straight like that. But what about the water inside the does the nighttime or the does it ruin all the water inside? We know all animals there's something called if you have meat that's left over here's that picture meat that's left overnight. What is that called? It's finished. Throw it out. What about the water in the throw it out? But so what's the question? What do you need water for? It's to purify to givea to the but wait a minute. The the kite himself doesn't doesn't need to do it more than once every 10 days. So why should the water go bad? The water that made the kayes and the kayen himself could go he has no expiration date. So why would the water be expire become expired that day? No different water is in the past. It's like anything else that he later on had an answer to this just like Rebi says that every day you have to wash your hands again when comes. So Revi holds that the water in the k goes bad every single day says that a kay could go forever without washing his hands so the water could also go forever I don't understand you said such a thing that the same argument if the water becomes goes bad or So the on the side maybe it's talking to so maybe there's a little bit of a mistake. It says instead of they were friends. Okay. Whatever. He says in the name of So this is an important price. So we got to remember this. It's super important for tomorrow. The that's the the sink, the whatever you want to call it. This this one over here. This is the kar the kar that you did not put into the ground. And we show it. They used to put it into the ground every sing into the under into the underground water system under the drop it in there every night. So if you didn't do it, you could still use it for anything you need to do perform at night. What kind of stuff do you do at night? This you can do at night. But tomorrow, the following day, what would that seem like? That the water goes bad. It says, you can't use it anymore. We ask the question, does it mean that you don't need to or it means or it means it's no good? What what do you mean by any you don't have to? You can't. It's done. It's garbage. Spill it out into the drain. And we never had an answer to the question. But according to what you're telling me and you know you know the answer you know that according to it's no good and according to it is good and over we don't even know the had 12 faucets. Used to have two I think it was two and it went up to 12. Why? Because every morning and evening when the khanim did the carbon there was 12 khanim. So not to waste any time if they wanted to boom turn it all out. No. >> So here Ben Cotton made this whole pulley system to lower this extremely heavy device into the ground every day into the water so that the water inside the K should not become possible. And what even holds what that's hand could stay for 10 days straight yet he'll hold when it comes to the kiar it must go into the water underground every single night otherwise it will become puzzle in other words the water the physical water of the kar is different than a human being human being his gusha remains forever we're trying to say according to Rebi that that a kind becomes every 24 hours he has to wash his hands. So of course the water every 24 hours becomes puzzle but what about who says that a goes forever without washing his hands. So now what about the water? So I want to say my this idea that you have to put it into underground is it going even according to rebi no nice try but no it's rebi who anyway we know that he holds that the water becomes puzzle every 24 hours says yes but why did I think so why did I think it's so now says a beautiful thing let me just show you real quickly What does it say in the ratio? Comes to the bull. We had this bull standing between the of this area right over here and the right over here. His head was facing south but his his actual face was twisted towards the west and the k is standing in the east of his face is facing west but he's standing to the east of the bull who says that this area is okay That is that's here describes this. This is the northern wall of the you take this box. This is the south wall. This is the northern wall. From this north wall to this north wall that's you have two northern walls, right? This is the north of the the of the B mikdash but this is the northern wall of the misb. So from the northern wall of the northern wall of mdash that's the area and the whole width of this whole area down here that's somebody else that he adds a whole area this whole area up here is also where you could do this whole thing with the with the with the bolt. Rebi comes Rebi. Another between this bottom part as well down here is in here. They had these uh um like shelves where they would put their knives in there. It even says over here. So from this area, what's the idea? like this you can't really see over you when you're in here you cannot see the you cannot check over here so you see that it's so since this part is because he holds that you get in this area the whole thing has to be including the fact that the water becomes every day it is says what are what are you talking about why does it have to be realized let's think about a second who says he k over here. Let's think together. You could check over here. Does Revy say could you shut over here also? Yes. Because over here it's much more. If you can check over here certainly could check over here. So therefore what's your proof that this area is this area is also rebi. So your whole proof flew out the window. That part of the brides could be rebi as well. Rebi saying in addition to that it says only in this area. He says, "No, you could also shut down here." But of course, he says he could shut on top. Says if you really hold that this bruises, I have a question. Why is this bull up here? Take this bull and put him down here. Shouldn't you be shing bulls far away from the as far as you can? Yes, Rebby holds you get in this area, but it's more appropriate to check down here. Oh, so what is he going to say? Oh, it's you up here. But according to this is also everybody agrees that this area you can. So then the question is according to why did he say the bull's over here? Put the bull right over here. It's also further away from the So then what's the So the says it can't be Rebi because if it's Rebby put the bull here. Put the bull here. So why is the bull here? The bull's here because we're trying to make it easier for If he washed his hands in order to do the following day, you don't have to do your hands and feet. Why? Because you're ready. Wash his hands and his feet. Wait a minute. According to Rebi, it's not good enough. Why? Let's think about it for a second. When do you do the it's called is everybody likes the when the the chicken when the rooster crows what comes after what comes before it's a different period of time the the rooster crows and somebody's saying that he has roosters they actually get up like 3:00 4 in the morning they start screaming it's before dawn then comes dawn Okay. So now the this we take the shovel full that's by that's before dawn. So think about it. He washes his hand to do this before dawn at 3:30. 4:00 is dawn. What does Rebi say? 4:00 comes. The clock starts ticking again. He has to wash his hands a second time. But it doesn't say that. It says you're done. You wash your hands at 3:30. be good for another 24 hours. But why according to once dawn comes you're finished and according to you could go for 10 days you go for 10 days straight big big it goes according to when did he wash his hands at 3:30 when's dawn 4:00 you don't have to wash your hands again why This whole problem of a human being having being overnight is only the massive from 3:30 to 4:00 we're going to we're going to look the other way. Yes. Every day at 4:00 you have to wash your hands again, but not if you do it right close to the to the 4:00. That's what he says. So we have a massive we're going to go into this again tomorrow. says, "No, no, no, no. It doesn't go according to Rebi. This goes according to Shim." But the question is, if it's he holds that he could wash once every 10 days. So, what's the what's going on here? Who cares? Why did he have to wash his hands in the morning? So he says, "Okay, there's holds in the in the beginning of the which is then right before dawn." In other words, he he picks and chooses. He holds your blood that you could it depends when you started. If you wash your hands in the beginning of the day, it lasts for 10 days, not at the end of the day. Okay. Interesting. So the other come now the question is why do they need to wash their hands? They already washed their hands beforehand. According to one washing is enough for 10 days. Why are they running and washing their hands? What's the answer at what could be a good answer? >> Huh? >> Good. Anybody else? You heard what he said? >> It could be the answer is that they never washed their hands. They just showed up at the base of English. They have to wash their hands according to that says that this goes like what and from 3:30 to 4:00 if you wash your hands there then right from the rooster to the dawn then you don't have to wash your hands again it goes like but says that whole thing goes according to the what one washing is good enough had time for And he's not going to go with that and he's going to hold it according to every 20 every you have to wash your hands again. So who does this go according to what good is it if they wash their hands you know when when they see the coming they have to wash their hands again why are they washing their hands like that video you saw he's coming he's not coming they have to wash your hands they washed their hands earlier yes it goes like that if you wash your hands once you don't have to wash your hands again we're talking about brand new. If a washes his hands in the now and he walks out the door and he comes back in if the the coming of the morning the coming of dawn doesn't ruin the the kdes he there's different ways to learn it. We're just going to learn simple according to Rashi. That's because he didn't walk. He didn't stop doing the parish. But when you walk out of the Bikdash, where's your mind? You stop thinking about you're not in the anymore. That's the idea of not concentrating on it. And once you you lose your concentration on the in your hands, you lose the you have to redo it since you're able to come back. So he never stopped thinking about it and he doesn't have to wash his hands again. Um, so >> fine, we'll stop here and we'll be behind the whole susai. Have a wonderful week for coming. >> Merit the of spreading Torah throughout the world. Sponsor Ashir today. mdysponsor.com or sponsor atmop.com.
