Zvi SobolofskyHOST
Now notice, the Gemara is just working with the absolute assumption, of course there are two days of Rosh Hashanah.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
One doesn't even ask the Quran, what do you have the second day of Rosh Hashanah for? Doesn't the Chumash say, where that second day of Rosh Hashanah comes from? But again, by the days of Rav Shmuel, that was already a given.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
Of course, that's the second day of Rosh Hashanah.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
But the Chiddush in Rav Shmuel is, is that unlike Shnei Yom Tov and Shom Golios, where Nolda B'Zeh is Mutah B'Zeh, Rosh Hashanah, everything is different.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
Why is that? So the Gemari says, well, this goes back to the very beginning.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
How did we end up with the second day of Rosh Hashanah in the first place? No, this is not.
13 MINS LATER
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
That's the story that the Maha has in the Mishnah perception of Rosh Hashanah.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
It was about a certain judgment about when Rosh Hashanah was, based on the testimony of the Eidim.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
So the, the-- You make a Leshev BeSukkah, we assume that you're yetzer min haTorah, the mitzvah of Shev BeSukkah, not withstanding the fact that it's too cold.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
So how do you resolve that if the Chasam Sofer is right, that you don't need a Sukkah ulekach milei, so then okay, but if the Rama thinks the Rav Yosef is right, so why isn't the cold Sukkah automatically disqualified from even makom achilah? So the Mishnah Burah quotes two different possibilities to explain that phenomenon.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
It has to be a Yefet discussion.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
The-- Our, um, our ancestors ate in cold climates, uh, hundreds of years.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
They lived in Poland, Lithuania.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
They were eating in freezing cold Sukkahs.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
They were making Leshev BeSukkah, so what's the problem? So the Mishnah Burah says that maybe the problem is like this, that the only time that the Rama said, the only time the Rav Yosef said that a Sukkah is not ulekach, for a shein it's not ulekach achilah, that means it's mamash impossible.
Zvi SobolofskyHOST
It means there's nothing you can do to make it ulekach.
Michelle Cohen FarberHOST
That's not difficult.
Michelle Cohen FarberHOST
And why is that? Ki demar bered Rav Yosef mishmei de Rava, as Mar, the Mar, the son of Rav Yosef said in the name of Rava, "D'amar peter rehem.
Michelle Cohen FarberHOST
B'peter rehem tala Rahmana." Because it says Peter Rehem from the womb, so the exemption, now the obligation comes from the womb, from the woman, and therefore, the exemption also comes from the woman.
Michelle Cohen FarberHOST
If she's from the Levite tribe, that's going to exempt her.
Yussie ZakutinskyHOST
And the avayda in order to reach that is the avayda of derech, the avayda of having two bekiasim, to know that even if you're in the fluctuations of the moon, but l'maysa, Hashem is with you, And that beitachet and that emunah and that simcha can be consistent like the sun, even during the fluctuations of the moon, which is b'china, the sun and the moon being the same.
Yussie ZakutinskyHOST
Therefore, it's dafka Rav Yosef, who's connected to Mashiach ben Yosef, obviously.
Yussie ZakutinskyHOST
Rav Yosef is the one that says, Rav Chumman Dice is higher than the Klingon.
Yussie ZakutinskyHOST
Because that's fixing the mistake of Rav Menachat.
Yussie ZakutinskyHOST
Rav Yosef is saying that I'm happy with Ben Yishavim Barashah.
Yussie ZakutinskyHOST
So that's not bad, that's the Tikkun.
Yussie ZakutinskyHOST
Just as the King Gadol and Shema went into the Kadesh HaKadosh and was part of all these things and made this Tfiloh Kitzarah.

anyhow.
GilHOST
It is as we find in the words of the sages, quote, Rav Yosef said, a person came to force him.
speaker_0UNKNOWN
He
GilHOST
and another joined to kill him.
Anne GordonHOST
The question of, is it true that there's no reward for mitzvot in this world? Is it true that one could die when one has just done, die in what seems to be an accidental death, of course, right? Right when one has done these mitzvot that promise long life.
Anne GordonHOST
And the Gemara concludes here, and it concludes our chapter, Amr of Yosef says, So Rav Yosef said that if Acher, now we'll talk about who Acher is in a moment, if Acher had accepted the interpretation or the homiletical interpretation, of this verse which we'll read in just a moment then then things would have gone better for him meaning what's the verse it's the phrase of that things would go well for you and if you understand that to mean the world to come then the question of reward in this world is just easier because it's all transferred to the world to come and we don't have this kind of contradictory knowledge about it and so therefore it sits well and it works well and and and all the conundrums here are kind of smoothed out so the claim here is that had he but known that had after known that he would not have sinned let's remember that after his real name is alicia he was a tana he was one of the students of or i would say contemporaries of rebbe akiva he was a rebbe of rebbe mayer there are many times that we've come across him or throughout our learning, in particular, he shows up in discussion of Rebbe Meir and Breuria, because he was Rebbe Meir's Rebbe, and this question of, you know, how could Rebbe Meir learn from somebody who had become an apostate, because that is his claim to fame.
Anne GordonHOST
He saw somebody climb to honor his father, to send away the mother bird, the kid fell, breaks his neck, whatever.
Anne GordonHOST
And again, this same story that's attributed to Rabbi Yaakov was said in the name of Aacher, Elisha ben Avuyah, in Masach HaKidushin, Deut.
Nassan ElbrunHOST
That's another mention of Hashem's name.
Nassan ElbrunHOST
Rav Yosef, who says, When we say Hashem, Hashem Echad, that Echad also refers to Hashem.
Nassan ElbrunHOST
Give us another bracha.
Nassan ElbrunHOST
The rabbi Tanchum.

YossiHOST
So why does he say that one must not regard himself as wicked? Is there a difference between saying that he did bad deeds and not saying about himself that he is wicked? If he says that he did bad deeds, then he is saying about himself that he is wicked anyhow.
YossiHOST
It is as we find in the words of the sages, quote, Rav Yosef said, a person came to force him.
YossiHOST
He and another joined to kill him.
speaker_0HOST
By His will, He is wicked.
