How much is 5 * 6?
How much is 6 * 4?
So, that math is easy. That's it. That's
the hardest part so far. That's it. This
mizbeach from top to bottom is 10 amos.
From the bottom to over here, we're
going to do amos that are five tfachim.
So, it's six amah * five tfachim is how
much? 30. But, from the soivev to the
top, we're going to do an amah which is
six. And there's four amos over here.
So, 4 * 6 is 24. How many tfachim do I
have total? 54. Now, 54 / 2 is how much?
Wow, not bad. This is a tough one. This
red line boisa is halfway on the
mizbeach. Does anybody know math here?
If you take 27, you take off 24 from it,
how many you have remaining?
No way. You guys are good. You guys are
unbelievable. I couldn't believe it.
Everybody knew this cuz I would have to
do a whole thing. 50 / 2 is 25. 4 / 2 is
2. So, 25 + 2 = 27. You guys like spit
it out like that. It's unbelievable. So,
I have a question for you. I'm a cohen
and I'm standing on the walkway and I
have blood of a chatas in my hand. It
has to go above a red line. How many
tfachim could I bend over and put the
blood?
Three. And if I did six, if I bend over
and I did six, I'll be past the red
line. That's a big problem. It says in
the Gemara that he's not allowed to bend
down six tfachim. So, we made a
something's off with our math. Is that
understood?
>> It's like IKEA instructions. Are you
saying it's complicated? Yeah. The
beginning was good. You had me in the
beginning. We good. The numbers worked
out. Now,
