Description

A focus on the scholarly approaches and personalities of R. Eliezer and R. Yochanan ben Zakkai (Who's Whos from the Gemara itself). Also, the case of one whose body is in the sukkah and whose table is in the house (a sukkah that is just off the house). Beit Hillel and Beit Shammai dispute whether such eating counts for the mitzvah of sukkah. Plus, women, slaves, and minors are not obligated in the mitzvah of sukkah. A minor being one who no longer needs his mother (which is explained). And all of the above is capped off with a story by Shammai HaZaken. Then the Gemara spends great effort to explain why women are exempt.
