Aryeh LebowitzHOST

So how much of the simanim would it need in order to be motar ba'akhila? Meaning, Rabbeinu Gershom explains, according to the Chachamim, anything that's yotze minatahar is automatically tar.
Aryeh LebowitzHOST

I don't care what the baby looks like.
Aryeh LebowitzHOST

Shalom RosnerHOST
38:01
Those would be called hornet honey or grasshopper honey, and that's why that's not what-- It's connected.
Shalom RosnerHOST
38:08
Rabbeinu Gershom said it's connected to the sheretz itself, and therefore, uh, that would not be the one that is, that is, uh, kosher.
Shalom RosnerHOST
38:17
[gulps] [thud] The Rambam, I saw some of the, uh, mefarshim talk about the da'as of Chazal here, where they know exactly how the honey was made, that the nectar was taken, and then it was put in the, uh [lips smack] it, it's deposited in the, in the, um, [paper rustles] in the honeycombs.
Shalom RosnerHOST
38:34
The Rambam says, "dvash devorim u-dvash serim mutar b'peshe'eino mitamtes gufan ela kosen oso me-al ha'asavim b'tok fihem," they gather it from their, from the grass, uh, from the flowers mi- in their mouths, "u-makiy os o son," and they spit it out, "b'kaveras k'dei sheyimtsu o oso le'echol mimen hu b'mos ha'shanam." So they have what to eat in the winter.

type of urine, and I saw two different approaches on Rishonim, how to understand what the Gemara means to say here.
Moshe ElefantHOST
27:13
Rabbeinu Gershom says that since people don't drink it, so certainly it's like perish, it's just like waste, and it's certainly mutter.
Moshe ElefantHOST
27:24
The Torah says that there's no question that, of course, that their usur, since they come back they come from a non-kosher animal, we're not allowed to drink it.
Moshe ElefantHOST
27:38
Another pshad is, the Gemara didn't focus on it because it's not a really relevant question.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
8:56
The Maharashidam is living in the 1500s and the Rashba lives in the 1200s.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
9:00
So the Rashba in the 1200s says that when Rabbeinu Gershom made his ruling to not marry two wives, that was only because the worry was that you'd have people who would be prutsi, who would just marry lots and lots of women, and you'd have a problem.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
9:17

Gideon RothsteinHOST

If you have a fully Jewish woman who leaves her husband, and then hired her into a non-Jewish household, and now she acts as a non-Jew, and she says she's not Jewish, she declares, you know, she has, sadly, in Qasr Shalom, a Attach yourself to this other religion, the Shiddur in the Yom Kippur said.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
26:17
He thinks that this husband can get married, in this case, clearly a second wife.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
26:21
It doesn't have to bear upon him because Rabbeinu Gershom certainly didn't mean to include that when a woman leaves the religion like this, that... that the husband should be stranded, right? Stranding Jews is nothing that we can imagine that somebody would create, that Ravina Gershon would mean to create a situation of stranding.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
26:40
So that would be all the more so, because in our situation, we don't even know if this first wife was Jewish at all, because we have doubts about her conversion.

And Rabbeinu Hananel did that in North Africa.
David LapinHOST
0:28
So you had these two great go'anim, Rabbeinu Gershom in Europe and Rabbeinu Hananel in Africa.
David LapinHOST
0:33
And they were the link between the go'anim of Bavel, that was the continuation of the period of the Gemara, and the dawn of the period of the Rishonim, both in North Africa and in Western Europe.
David LapinHOST
0:45
So these two people are crucially important.
David LapinHOST
0:48
There are many Mesechters, we've got them one of them, at least on the side of the Gemara here, and we've got Rabbeinu Gershom.
