  • Daf Ditty Pesachim 78: Korban Pesach Today (?)
    Daf Ditty Pesachim 78: Korban Pesach today (?) Three girls in Israel were detained by the Israeli Police (2018). The girls are activists of the “Return to the Mount” (Chozrim Lahar) movement. Why were they detained? They had posted Arabic signs in the Muslim Quarter calling upon Muslims to leave the Temple Mount area until Friday night, in order to allow Jews to bring the Korban Pesach. This is the fourth time that activists of the movement will come to the Old City on Erev Pesach with goats that they plan to bring as the Korban Pesach. There is also an organization called the Temple Institute that actively is trying to bring back the Korban Pesach. It is, of course, very controversial and the issues lie at the heart of one of the most fascinating halachic debates in the past two centuries. 1 The previous mishnah was concerned with the offering of the paschal lamb when the people who were to slaughter it and/or eat it were in a state of ritual impurity. Our present mishnah is concerned with a paschal lamb which itself becomes ritually impure. Such a lamb may not be eaten. (However, we learned incidentally in our study of 5:3 that the blood that gushed from the lamb's throat at the moment of slaughter was collected in a bowl by an attendant priest and passed down the line so that it could be sprinkled on the altar). Our mishnah states that if the carcass became ritually defiled, even if the internal organs that were to be burned on the altar were intact and usable the animal was an invalid sacrifice, it could not be served at the Seder and the blood should not be sprinkled.

    Th e Gemara asks: Does this prove by inference that Rav Aĥa bar ִמ ְּכ ָלל ְ ּדַרב ַא ָחא ַּבר ַי ֲﬠקֹב ָס ַבר ַמ ָּצה Ya’akov maintains that eating matza nowadays applies by Torah ִּבְז ַמן ַהֶזּה ְ ּד ַאוֹרְי ָיתא? ְו ָהא ַרב ַא ָחא law?

Th e Gemara answers: Rav Aĥa bar Ya’akov maintains that everything the Sages instituted through ְ ּד ַאוֹרְי ָיתא ִּת ּיק ּון. their decrees, they instituted similar to the model established by Torah law. In other words, although the obligations to eat matza and recite the Haggadah are rabbinic, the stringencies and restric- tions that apply to Torah mitzvot apply here as well. Th erefore, a blind person is exempt from reciting the Haggadah. Th e Gemara asks: According to the opinion of Rav Sheshet and ְלַרב ׁ ֵש ׁ ֶשת ּו ְלַרב ֵיוֹסף ַנ ִמי, ָהא ַוַ ּדאי Rav Yosef too, certainly everything the Sages instituted through ּכֹל ְד ַת ּק ּון ַר ָּב ַנן ְּכ ֵﬠין ְ ּד ַאוֹר ְי ָיתא their decrees, they instituted similar to the model established by ִּת ּיק ּון! Torah law. Why, then, did these blind Sages recite the Haggadah themselves? Th e Gemara rejects this diffi culty: How can these cases, the verses ָה ִכי ָה ׁ ְש ָּתא! ִּב ׁ ְש ָל ָמא ָה ָתם, ִמַ ּד ֲהָוה -dealing with rebellious son and the Passover Haggadah, be com ֵל ּיה ְל ִמ ְיכ ַּתב ְּ״ב ֵנ ּנו ּהוא״ ּו ְכ ִתיב pared?

  • Universal Quotes from the Talmud
    Universal quotes from the Talmud Berakoth 17a Abaye was wont to say: One must always be shrewd and utilize every strategy in order to achieve fear of Heaven and performance of commandments. One must fulfill the verse: “A soft answer turns away wrath” (Proverbs 15:1) and take steps to increase peace with one’s brethren and with one’s relatives, and with all people, even with a non- jew in the marketplace, despite the fact that he is of no importance to him and does not know him at all (Me’iri), so that he will be loved above in God’s eyes, pleasant below in the eyes of the people, and acceptable to all of God’s creatures. מרגלא בפומיה דאביי לעולם יהא אדם ערום ביראה מענה רך משיב חמה ומרבה שלום עם אחיו ועם קרוביו ועם כל אדם ואפילו עם גוי בשוק כדי שיהא אהוב למעלה ונחמד למטה ויהא מקובל על הבריות Tangentially, the Gemara mentions that they said about Rabban Yoḥanan ben Zakkai that no one ever preceded him in issuing a greeting, not even a non-jew in the marketplace, as Rabban Yoḥanan would always greet him first. אמרו עליו על רבן יוחנן בן זכאי שלא הקדימו אדם שלום מעולם ואפילו גוי בשוק Shabbat 88b With regard to the revelation at Sinai, Rabbi Yoḥanan said: What is the meaning of that which is written: “The Lord gives the word; the women that proclaim the tidings are a great host” (Psalms 68:12)?
