  • Daf Ditty Eruvin 46: the Leniency of Grief (And Eruvin)
    Daf Ditty Eruvin 46: The leniency of Grief (and Eruvin) Under the wide and starry sky, Dig the grave and let me lie. Glad did I live and gladly die, And I laid me down with a will. This be the verse you grave for me: Here he lies where he longed to be; Home is the sailor, home from sea, And the hunter home from the hill. Robert Louis Stevenson 1 Rabbi Ya’akov bar Idi said that Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi said: The halakha is in accordance with the opinion of Rabbi Yoḥanan ben Nuri, that one who was asleep at the beginning of Shabbat may travel two thousand cubits in every direction. Rabbi Zeira said to Rabbi Ya’akov bar Idi: Did you hear this halakha explicitly from Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi, or did you understand it by inference from some other ruling that he issued? Rabbi Ya’akov bar Idi said to him: I heard it explicitly from him. 2 The Gemara asks: From what other teaching could this ruling be inferred? The Gemara explains: From that which Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi said: The halakha is in accordance with the lenient opinion with regard to an eiruv. The Gemara asks: Why do I need both? Why was it necessary for Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi to state both the general ruling that the halakha is in accordance with the lenient opinion with regard to an eiruv, and also the specific ruling that the halakha is in accordance with the opinion of Rabbi Yoḥanan ben Nuri on this issue? Rabbi Zeira said: Both rulings were necessary, as had he informed us only that the halakha is in accordance with the opinion of Rabbi Yoḥanan ben Nuri, I would have said that the 3 halakha is in accordance with him whether this is a leniency, i.e., that a sleeping person acquires residence and may walk two thousand cubits in every direction, or whether it is a stringency, i.e., that ownerless utensils acquire residence and can be carried only two thousand cubits from that place.

  • (Page Numbers from 1956 Edition of Samuch V'nireh) (211) the Train Wandered Among the Mountains
    BaDerech: The Selichot Journey R' Mordechai Torczyner – [email protected] Loose partial translation (page numbers from 1956 edition of Samuch v’Nireh) (211) The train wandered among the mountains, not finding its path. All of my fellow passengers departed, and I remained alone. Aside from the conductor and the engineer, no one remained. Suddenly, the train halted and did not budge. I knew that the train was over for me, and I would need to go on foot in strange places, among strange people whose language I would not know and whose ways I would not recognize. On another day this would not have pained me – just the opposite, I would have been pleased that a nice stroll had happened upon me, unexpected. But that night I was not pleased. It was the evening of Z’chor Brit; the next day would be Rosh HaShanah. How could I observe this holy day without communal prayer and without shofar? I rose from my place and looked outside. The mountains were silent; a fearsome darkness surrounded me. The conductor came and said, “Yes, sir, the train has halted and it cannot move.” He saw my pain, and he took my bag, placed it on the bench, and continued to say, “Let sir place his head upon his bag; perhaps he will sleep and gather strength, for he has a long path before him.” I nodded to him and said, “Fine, fine, sir.” I stretched out on the bench and placed my head on my bag. Before daybreak, the conductor returned. He scratched his temples and said, “Since we are far from civilization, I must wake sir from his sleep, for if he wishes to reach people before nightfall he will need to hurry.” I rose from my place and took my stick and my bag, while he showed me where to turn and where to go.

  • 1 a Tale of Two Cities?
    A Tale of Two Cities? Shushan Purim in Modern-day Jerusalem Etan Schnall Fellow, Bella and Harry Wexner Kollel Elyon, Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, Yeshiva University I. Introduction The holiday of Purim is unique inasmuch as halacha mandates that the date of its observance varies amongst different Jewish communities. The vast majority of Jews celebrate Purim on the 14th of Adar, while Jews living in cities surrounded by walls at the time of Yehoshua bin Nun observe the 15th of Adar, known as Shushan Purim. The Talmud establishes guidelines for determining when cities receive the latter designation. In modern times, expansions of city limits have compelled Jewish legal authorities to formulate current applications of these guidelines in contemporary municipal settings. The most prominent contemporary example of a locality in question is modern-day Jerusalem and its environs, as Chazal indicate that Jerusalem was surrounded by walls at the time of Yehoshua bin Nun. The present essay will attempt to outline the issues relevant to defining the boundaries of a walled city. Following this analysis, we will present the city of Jerusalem as a case study in understanding some of the practical applications of our discussion. II. Historical Background of the Two Days of Purim The institution of Purim and Shushan Purim as two distinct commemorations traces its roots to the narrative of Megillat Esther (Chapter 9). Haman initiated a royal proclamation calling upon subjects of Achashveirosh to attack the Jewish people on the 13th of Adar. Though Haman was executed prior to this date, the decree, issued under the auspices of the king, could not be rescinded.
