5:39Shalom RosnerHOST
Whatever, some nickname, even though it was his name, but the word Aba could have been understood as, you know, the great, the great, uh, one.
S
5:48Shalom RosnerHOST
Right? Like the story, we've quoted this in the Shabbos, Shabbos Shuva context in the past, the story of the last Daf in Yuma, where Rav Huna, who was the Talmud of Rav, uh, was, uh, was, was walking by and- They had a conversation, and you see Rav Huna call him Abba to his face, right? So you see in the last peh gimmel, peh beis, peh dalet around there.
S
6:07Shalom RosnerHOST
So you see Abba's not, it's not a problem.
S
6:10Shalom RosnerHOST
The problem was that he said, "Abba Aricha." By saying Aricha, he's showing that he's not calling him Abba as the great one.
S
6:17Shalom RosnerHOST
He's calling him the specific person, Abba Aricha.
S
6:21Shalom RosnerHOST
So he says because of that, that's why together it's a problem.
S
6:24Shalom RosnerHOST
[reading foreign language].
S
7:08Shalom RosnerHOST
In the Mishnah, is it there? That's the Note Bi胡达's teshuvah.
Shiluach Haken: Introduction — Daf Yomi Chullin 138
S
3:35Sruli RappsHOST
[Hebrew] is Rechelim, but [Hebrew] is not Rechelim, it's Rechelos, and that is correct for the Mishnayis." Okay.
S
3:45Sruli RappsHOST
[Hebrew] Rabbi Yochanan then continued, and he asks Isi Bar Hini, "Who is right now the head of the yeshiva? Who is the leader in, in, in, in Bavel? Who's the Rosh Yeshiva now in Bavel?" [Hebrew] And Isi Bar Hini responds, "It is Aba Aricha." Aba Aricha is Rav.
S
4:08Sruli RappsHOST
Aricha means tall.
S
4:09Sruli RappsHOST
Apparently, Rav was tall.
S
4:11Sruli RappsHOST
So Rav the Tall.
S
4:14Sruli RappsHOST
So [Hebrew] Rabbi Yochanan is a little bit surprised at how Isi Bar Hini referred to the great Rav as Aba Aricha.
S
4:24Sruli RappsHOST
[Hebrew] Rabbi Yochanan says, "You refer to him as Aba Aricha.
S
4:29Sruli RappsHOST
Now, you gotta be careful." Rabbi Yochanan, Rabbi Yochanan, you know, you mess with Rabbi Yochanan, you could, you could end up a pile of bones.

A
3:57Aryeh LebowitzHOST
Rabbi Yochman says to Isi, Manrei sits in Babel.
A
4:00Aryeh LebowitzHOST
Who's the Rosh Yeshiva in Babel these days? Isi had just arrived in Eretz Yisrael, so he wanted to know, no? What's doing in the community in Babel? Who's the Rosh Yeshiva there? Amalei, oh, there's this wonderful Rosh Yeshiva, Abba Aricha, the tall Abba.
A
4:12Aryeh LebowitzHOST
He was referring to Rav.
A
4:13Aryeh LebowitzHOST
Rav was a very tall person.
A
4:14Aryeh LebowitzHOST
Rav's name was Abba.
A
4:16Aryeh LebowitzHOST
They always call him Rav as a Lashon of Kavah, just like Rabbi Daanasi is called Rebbe, so this Abba was called Rav.
A
4:24Aryeh LebowitzHOST
So he referred to him by his name, Abba Aricha.
A
4:27Aryeh LebowitzHOST
So I'm like, Abba Aricha, Chris? That's how you call him? You call him Abba Aricha? Do you have any idea who you're talking about? We were both in Rebbe's shiur together at the same time.

M
8:58Maier BorensteinHOST
Because Rabbi Yossi holds, it has to be the normal way of doing it.
M
9:02Maier BorensteinHOST
This is going to be our record, what we were saying before, that Rabbi Yossi only might have admitted to Orchei So it's the Amara, where do we find such a Moshe? Netanyahu, Leket Kitzircha, V'lui Leket Kitov, Leket, right, that's the fallen crops, our motor, right, who do they go to? They go to the Ani, but that's only if it was done with a sickle, meaning you were actually doing a normal case of cutting V'lui Leket Kitov, but if you were using your hands, then it's not called Leket for B'Yi Yisrael, and Leket El Abba Mach Matz Kitzir.
M
9:35Maier BorensteinHOST
Well, that should have sounded redundant if you're paying attention.
M
9:40Maier BorensteinHOST
Rabbi Yisrael came along and he said, That's what we just said.
11 MINS LATER
M
20:38Maier BorensteinHOST
Don't get so smart.
M
20:39Maier BorensteinHOST
Ko shein means even one salah, the least amount.
M
20:42Maier BorensteinHOST
The Mishnah said right after, what do you give? Because Rav, if you paid attention, Rav didn't say an amount.
M
20:53Maier BorensteinHOST
What did Rav say? But he didn't say how much you have to give to the Goyen.

2:41Darren PlatzkyHOST
He says, Maan Reish Sidra, who's the Rosh Yeshiva in Babel? Rashi says, yeah, Maan Sidra, Rosh Yeshiva, Rashi taught that Rosh Yeshiva.
D
2:50Darren PlatzkyHOST
Now we know that term, Abba Arecha, right? So he says, who's Abba Arecha? So Rashi says, because he was tall in his generation.
D
2:57Darren PlatzkyHOST
If you go on an art scroll, There's a Rashbanli from Baba Batru.
D
3:07Darren PlatzkyHOST
We saw this.
D
3:08Darren PlatzkyHOST
It says, It quotes Agamora here.
D
3:10Darren PlatzkyHOST
It quotes the Shabbi Yochanan.
D
3:12Darren PlatzkyHOST
It says, He found in a book that came from Rome, he found that the title Rav in Yisrael, in Bavel, was like Rebbe, Yehuda HaNasi was called Rebbe in Yisrael.
D
3:44Darren PlatzkyHOST
So to Rav was called, but not that he was very tall.

5:34Fishel OsterHOST
Why is it only the Tzoyim, which is the sheep, or as in the Lashon HaMishnah, the Rechelim, that Yechayiv Reish Yisageis, not from oxen, not from goats.
F
5:42Fishel OsterHOST
It's based on what Rav Yishua ben Levi says, because in the next posseg, after it says the mitzvah of Reish Yisageis, the posseg goes on to say, The next posseg says, What does Lamed L'shoras mean? You're obligated to give to the Qayin, from the wool, which could be used to make garments, that the Qayan, you can make the big day kahuna out of it, that the Qayan is going to stand in the Beis Hamikdash and serve with it.
F
6:11Fishel OsterHOST
And that's only from the wool, from the sheep, from the goat, there's nothing that you could use to make any of the big day kahuna.
F
6:19Fishel OsterHOST
And therefore, for this, the mitzvah does not apply.
F
8:16Fishel OsterHOST
And another price we learned, same like the other price, that if you're cutting the hairs of the goat, it's potter.
F
8:24Fishel OsterHOST
But then it says, when you're washing the body of the sheep and some of the wool comes off, even though you didn't shear it properly with a knife, you will be chayiv.
F
8:35Fishel OsterHOST
So the G'mon answer is, as we already brought before, that there's the opinion of Rav Yesi about this.
F
8:40Fishel OsterHOST
This is not a question.
Chullin 137 — full
S
17:36Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
So the Gemara challenges his position of Shmuel and Rebbe Eliezer because he says... makes sense according to that they say that the amount that you're obligated is more than five slime and so that explains that you have to give to the Kohen five slime from everything and But it's difficult for Shmuel and Rabbi Lodz because they're saying you don't have to give that amount.
S
18:10Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
Is it really good according to Rav? They both said that in order to fulfill the mitzvah of Rav, you need to give the Kohen 160th from every shearing.
S
18:22Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
And according to Rav, the obligation is money for us.
S
18:26Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
So therefore, how do we explain it? So we already learned this position.
S
18:33Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
We're talking about a case that part of the Misha is talking about where there's a Jew who had a lot of woe.
S
19:20Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
Shumar says, what are you talking about that Shumar is 1 60th of a gift to the Kohen? Didn't we learn that if you're really generous, you give 1 40th.
S
19:31Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
So why do we say you have to give 1 60th when you're really generous? It says 140.
S
19:41Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
So why would Rav and Shmuel say the shiur for somebody who's stingy? So the Gemara says, Okay, they said the biblical amount is 160th.
Chullin 137: fire from the mouth
S
0:04Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
And today's daf yomi, the Gemara tells us the following story about Rebbe Yochanan.
S
0:13Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
And the story is as follows, that Rebbe Yochanan says that he heard somebody referring to Rav, who was the leading authority of the generation, he heard him referring to as Abba Ariha, Abba the tall one.
S
0:29Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
And Rabbi Yochanan thought that that was disrespectful.
S
0:31Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
He said, you calling him Abba Ariha Karisle? I remember that I was sitting, says Rabbi Yochanan, I was sitting 17 rows behind Rav, when Rav was sitting in front of Rebbe, and I saw sparks of fire coming out the mouth of Rav before Rebbe.
S
1:01Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
from Rebbe's mouth to Rav.
S
1:05Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
We didn't even know what they were saying.
S
1:07Shmuel HerzfeldHOST
And you call him .
Chullin 137

S
24:59Shaya KatzHOST
That was our Mishnah.
S
25:00Shaya KatzHOST
That makes sense according to Rav and Rabbi Yochanan.
S
25:14Shaya KatzHOST
which Rabbi Orochan was quoting, because then you can get five to the Kohen.
D
25:19DavidHOST
Well, it's, I mean, Rashi says, to Rabbi Orochan's Kohen, wow.
D
25:26DavidHOST
He's talking about how much, how much shearing there is, I don't know.
S
25:31Shaya KatzHOST
Hold on.
S
25:32Shaya KatzHOST
Which one was Rav? Amarav, mana upras.
S
25:38Shaya KatzHOST
That was talking about how much is on the goat.
Chullin Daf 138
C
0:40Chananya KramerHOST
So even though it's written in the Torah as a Rechelim Mit Mem, you should still say Rechelos in the Lashon of the Mishnah with a sof.
C
0:46Chananya KramerHOST
Omer Lei, so Rabbi Yochanan to Isi Bar Hini, Ma Reish Sidra BaBavel? Who's the Rosh Yeshiva over there in Bavel? Who's in charge? Omer Lei, Isi said, Aba Aricha, which was a reference to Rav, who was very tall, so he called him Aba Aricha.
C
0:58Chananya KramerHOST
Omer Lei, Rabbi Yochanan said back to Isi, "Aba Aricha Karis Lei?" You called Rav Aba Aricha, which he held was not beKavodik.
C
1:05Chananya KramerHOST
And the way the Ben Yehoyada explains it is that 'cause he didn't say Rabbeinu, he called him Aba.
C
1:09Chananya KramerHOST
Now, Aba by itself is always a Lashon of Kavod, but since it's Aba Aricha, which is now somehow he's, like, the greatest tall person, that's not really the most beKavodik way to refer to him.
C
1:17Chananya KramerHOST
I mean, let's face it, you're calling him Daddy Long Legs.
C
1:20Chananya KramerHOST
So he was tainting on him.
C
1:21Chananya KramerHOST
And Rabbi Yochanan continues by saying, "You can't call him that because DeChirna Kad Havia Sivna Achar Shivsrei Shur Nachuri DeRav." I remember when I was sitting 17 rows behind Rav and Kamei DeRabbi, who was right in front of Rebbe himself.
