S2E9: Learning mishna on the road (Sukkah 2:6-7)

How do you keep up your mishna routine when traveling? Today, we discuss how a daily learning schedule can be impacted when you are traveling, with or without your child. After we think through those potential challenges and deconstruct how they led to Tuesday’s technical difficulties, we study Sukkah 2:6-7. These two mishnas discuss rules that apply to eating in the sukkah. You can find them on Sefaria here [https://www.sefaria.org/Mishnah_Sukkah.2.6?lang=bi].
