Daf Yomi One Week at a Time: Chullin: with Rabbanit Dr. Tamara Spitz: Lesson 5: 27-33

This week we will begin Perek Ha’Shochet (the second chapter), establishing the foundational rules of how much of the simanim (windpipe and esophagus) must be cut for valid shechita, a majority of one siman for birds and two for animals. We will then learn the precise technical requirements of the cut itself, analyzing what counts as a “majority,” whether half equals a majority for purposes of treifah versus shechita, the laws of shehiyah (pausing mid-cut), and how long the knife must be — concluding it must extend beyond the length of the neck.

Emunot V'Deot: The First Book of Jewish Philosophy with Rabbi Daniel Korobkin: 4:1-2 – Both Scripture and Logic Prove that Man is the Choicest of G-d’s Creations

Rabbi Saadia Gaon’s sefer Emunot V’Deot (Book of Beliefs and Opinions) innovated the genre of Jewish philosophy. Long before Rabbi Yehuda HaLevi and the Rambam, R. Saadia paved the road for viewing Jewish principles through a lens of classic Greek philosophy, the science of his time, and is justifiably where Jewish philosophy begins. Join ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rabbi Daniel Korobkin⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://webyeshiva.org/profile/?user=6027] as he explores this important, monumental work, tracing the differences in approach between R. Saadia and those who came after him.

Daf Yomi One Week at a Time: Chullin: with Rabbanit Dr. Tamara Spitz: Lesson 4: Daf 20-26

This week the Gemara contrasts shechita with melikah (nape-nicking of bird offerings), detailing what is kosher for one but invalid for the other. We will then learn about disqualifications of Kohanim versus Leviyim (blemishes vs. age), and then shift to the tumah laws of earthenware vessels.  The Gemara then debates the status of temed (water soaked through grape residue), whether it is treated as water or wine for Ma’aser Sheni and Mikveh purposes.
