Reb Yehudah the Prominent

Before we started this Gamarra, we led into the daff by quoting Arashi. Ashi says, "Why are we talking about this right now?" It's a nice story. Little agadada. But what's have to do with anything that's been going on for the last long while? So Rashi says not much. But at the same time, there was a discussion about Shirim. And this is an interesting anecdote related to Shirim. We were talking about being mish the ma 60 or a little less than 60 or the mikvah 40 a little bit less than 40 and uh the bead is it a little less than the is it a is a little bit less than here too they were mash the dam was it a re or was it a little bit less than a re that's the segue but if you take a look at the bottom says a different shot says that you want to know why we just brought discussion. It's because we mentioned something very interesting about the great town of Raud said Yehuda was the of the family of Rabbi that says is the reason we brought this whole discussion it's because if you go back to the end of yesterday's d the gar mentioned something that had said as a matter of fact the opening of the gumarud The gar said the garumar mentioned another interesting fact about who was he was the so we know that once upon a time when the sat together and they would speak. So it was done in a very very formal way. Somebody would ask the question and then there was an answer. We spoke about this in but the bottom line is that there was a a certain surah a certain say there of how it happened and the was none other than the great says that the reason we're mentioning this story is because we mention therefore we're going to mention another thing about so what this is just an opportunity to talk about say no it's a little bit more than that because the reason was is for the same exact reason that was the it's for one and the same reason and beer Before we feel that we mention it's because of X. So I'm going to mention to you now also another thing that was because of X and that is he's so what's this X? What is it that was that should become theis is being is also the reason that and that's really it's a very very well-known it's actually a more in a well-known this is this is the d that talks about what caused and his son to hide in the first for 12 years and then for a 13th year where he was that all played itself out during that 13-year period. But didn't just decide one day to spend 13 years in a cave. It happened because of and the tells the story in it's a very short I think it's to mention it. The Garra says actually begins from the ankle. Why was referred to as says the because once upon a time and was with them got up and he said started praising the Romans they're a great great nation they made streets bridges bathous what an unbelievable were living amongst great people heard what said he didn't say anything heard what and he did say something he says no everything that they did they did for themselves says amazingly went and he told uh over this story meaning he didn't go and but he says you know you want to hear an incredible story I was once sitting between the three and this is what happened either way and the birds like says sometimes carries things and ultimately the malus heard about what happened they said who praised us Allah he should be that was quiet. He has to go to Golas. He should go to Shim Shagina Shim who to the contrary he spoke in a very derogatory way about us. He deserves to be killed when he heard that they want to kill him and he's a hunted person. went with his son and they hid and as they say the rest is history but Yehuda we need the part of this what was the he became the says that you see was very and that's why he's here we'll throw in a little digression a digression it'll also relates to it could be that also. But the bottom line is says this is really the and that is oh that was so that not only did they make him the but he became the he became the person that this says is the and this also a little bit the rest of the story of the rest of the story of the great you know it's interesting we know that rebi was a talmid of Rome Gimmel also a very well-known gimar the gumar says that rebi said the reason I was great is because when Rome used to give shir I used to see him he said but I only seen saw him from behind and had I seen him from the front I would have seen his face I would have been that much greater rebi is when rebi sat down to write the mishnay so we know stamishna is reor we've mentioned many times over the years the garis of that the avoid of rebi was to be malacit all the different versions of the mess and he had to pick and choose whose version of it he liked most right whose was more katar valan and from all the different that he saw the one that he was the one from raor and the the chain between rebi and ram and that connection is critical and vital in terms of understanding the homos it's in terms of understanding the setup of talmud Bavi in terms of understanding the way the ter was transmitted rebi was also a town of rahuda right you see rahuda was a big deal fact literally every there's a dead muhuda he's the po it's actually interesting I think because when there's aud like and that claw of just to appreciate is something that's already in the we once spoke out in Margolas said that we know in whatever this is you always go right that the mala is you go based on the second this is the rule of how it always works right we always pin like the toughest is the way it is and Ru Malis in his epic way figured out that if you go through Mishnayas the second Tana mentioned in the Mishna is always the T We're going to ask him like Bisham is always mentioned before. Ra is always mentioned before Raishua and Ra is always mentioned before Rab Yehuda. He spoke out once that it could be in the sh between mentioned before mayor because there like says in the truth like there we talk like but the bottom line is you see rebi put into the as much as much as he's the ra that has legendary again it's critical in terms of understanding what we do but at the same time it's was and by the way what do you mean the Romans said that he should be the Romans weren't determining they said he's going to get maybe but at the end of the day if they're asking that means you find that is somehow himself he's telling to that's in terms of the but Hika over there.
