Description
Study Guide Pesachim 53 Today’s Daf is sponsored by Marcia Baum in memory of her mother Helena K. Baum on her fifth Yartzeit. "Mom was a lifelong learner and lover of Torah studies, an anomaly for women of her generation. She is sorely missed by those whose lives she touched." How did Rabbi Ilai cut wood with unripe fruits? It seems even the rabbis consider them fruits? The gemara brings contradictory braitot regarding when one needs to get rid of one's fruits in the house. Do they really contradict? A bratia is brought describing what different types of land or water is known for - mountains, valleys, streams and plains. What is the halachic relevance? There is a custom not to sell small animals, however large animals are always forbidden. Why? Are there exceptions to the rule? There was a custom to eat roasted meat on Pesach night and not to eat roasted meat. If one says they are doing it for Pesach, it is forbidden. The gemara brings a contradiction from a braita regarding a story with Todos. Who was Todos and why according to the story did the rabbis not excommunicate him because of his stature - why did he have stature? There was a custom to light candles on erev Yom Kippur and a custom not to light. Both customs had the same intent in mind - to prevent sexual relations between husband and wife. Some said thaqt Rabbi Yochanan said one only lights a candle for havdala on Saturday night but not after holidays and Yom Kippur. Did he really say that or did he say that if Yom Kippur falls on Shabbat, one does not light candles before?
