Jonathan FialaHOST
Just a little bit more here.
Jonathan FialaHOST
Mishnah Yevamot, 7-1.
Jonathan FialaHOST
And these are slaves of guaranteed investment.
Jonathan FialaHOST
They are those which regard to whom the couple stipulated that if they die, their death is his loss, and if they increase in value...
Rachel Weber-LeshaHOST
This can be hard to imagine nowadays, when medicine has advanced to the point that even difficult health conditions can often be managed.
Rachel Weber-LeshaHOST
The Gemara in Yevamot 64b teaches, A man should not marry a woman from a family with epilepsy, nor from a family with leprosy, and this is when it has been halachically established three times.
Rachel Weber-LeshaHOST
Thankfully, today, there are more and better options for addressing genetic health concerns than this drastic measure.
Rachel Weber-LeshaHOST
A range of test panels is now available to screen couples to see if there are carriers of genetic mutations that might lead to disease, some of which are especially prevalent in specific genetic groups, such as Jews with ancestry from a particular region.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
So he goes back to the gemar.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
The gemar in Yevamot, 47b, has a bright, it says, See, with a man, there's an extra step to conversion that the man has to be circumcised.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
In those days, men weren't circumcised unless they were Jewish.
Gideon RothsteinHOST
Today, you might have people who are circumcised anyway, and then you need a hatafat tamri, but that wouldn't need as much of a recovery.
Hershel SchachterHOST
That's the Rabbeinu Tam shita in the Sefer HaYosher, and he has-- Toises quotes it also.
Hershel SchachterHOST
The first daf in Yevamot, daf beis L'Manach, Toises Shushan quotes it.
Hershel SchachterHOST
But they don't quote the whole Rabbeinu Tam, so people don't re-realize what he said.
Hershel SchachterHOST
If you look in the Sefer HaYosher, Rabbeinu Tam does say that a Nidah is not Gilyarot.
Hershel SchachterHOST
HaBach L'Maise, would you say Ya'arog VaYavor? The Shulchan Aruch said you do say, but the Rabbeinu Tam is Cholei L'Tam L'Ram.
Hershel SchachterHOST
So that's the sheilah.
Hershel SchachterHOST
There's a-- And then the Gemara says in the second perek in Yevamot, the Shlom HaMelach was goy zer schnias L'Arayot.
Hershel SchachterHOST
And on Torah, there's a list of relatives that you're not allowed to marry.
Hershel SchachterHOST
So the Gemara gives an answer, hein urevitze.
Hershel SchachterHOST
The Gemara Yevamot said achhein chet.
Hershel SchachterHOST
That's the normal way.
Hershel SchachterHOST
That's the natural way.

Hershel SchachterHOST
Such a far-fetched case, of such a strange case, even a Din that's a Lo Tilu doesn't apply." That's what Rab Moshe wrote in the Tshuva.
Hershel SchachterHOST
So there's such a Din over here is quoting from the Gemara in Sifches.
Hershel SchachterHOST
[clears throat] It's a straight out of Gemara in Yevamot.
Hershel SchachterHOST
It's called Aveh-- It, uh, Sifches Enzo called Aveh She'ein Hamatzeh Berait Lo Gazar.
Yosef Haim RabbaniHOST
The Gemara says, Masichet.
Yosef Haim RabbaniHOST
Yebamot.
Yosef Haim RabbaniHOST
Daf, meh, samech, meh.
Yosef Haim RabbaniHOST
No fun in that.
11 MINS LATER
Yosef Haim RabbaniHOST
Ritva learned that this whole Gemara is not talking about a regular wife.
Yosef Haim RabbaniHOST
It's talking about Yebamah.
Yosef Haim RabbaniHOST
This Gemara was talking about Masyakh al-Yebamot.
Yosef Haim RabbaniHOST
Why Yebamah is different than a regular wife? Because Yebamah, I didn't choose her.
Yitzchak EtshalomHOST
I presented the case a little bit inaccurately, but that's not the point.
Yitzchak EtshalomHOST
The point is here in the sugyah, they're again invoking the issue of Avsharat Tzem Tzem as a case of natural events happening with complete simultaneity and therefore they are both considered to be active Yevamot.
Yitzchak EtshalomHOST
By the way, if we took the position that, you know what, they might have happened simultaneously, but we can't tell which one, or, like Tosfot, or it's impossible that it happened simultaneously, then what would be the result? You'd have to give Chalitza to both, because you just don't know which one is first.
Yitzchak EtshalomHOST
But this way, or you'd say neither, because they're both Sarat Achiv, they're both the co-wife of an Erva.
Shalom RosnerHOST
Still considered a Jew.
Shalom RosnerHOST
Uh, the Gemara talks about in Yevamos, on daf mem zayin amah beis, this case.
Shalom RosnerHOST
Gemara talks that that's the Gerus sugyas, if you remember, in the b-- in the fourth perek of Acholait.
Shalom RosnerHOST
The Gemara says, "Tava," the Mishnah says, "Tava v'ala hareiki Yisroel lechol dvar," right? When a Ger comes out of the mikvah, he's ki Yisroel lechol dvar.
Shalom RosnerHOST
"Lamai hilchasa?" Says the Gemara, "Lamai nafkaminah? D'ihadar beh." If he's chozer bo, meaning he wants to go back, "U'mekadesh bas Yisroel, Yisroel mumar karina beh v'kiddushav kiddushin." Still a kiddushin, right, even if he was chozer bo.
Shalom RosnerHOST
The Ritva on that Gemara, Yevamos mem zayin amah beis, "V'shaminah minah d'Yisroel meshumad ki Yisroel nidon." A heret-heretic Jew has the status of a Jew.
Shalom RosnerHOST
The kiddushin, kiddushin g'murim.
Shalom RosnerHOST
"V'hu ad din d'kitto get apilu l'kiddushin shekidesh b'giuso," right? Even if he got married when he was not a mumar, and now he's a mumar, we still say that he can give the get, and he has to give the get.
Jeff WeissHOST
Okay, here you go.
Jeff WeissHOST
Yavamot, Y-E-V-A-M-O-T, 47B verse, says, converts from Christianity to Judaism are as harmful to the Jewish people as leprous scab.
Trent LoosHOST
Yeah, well.
Jeff WeissHOST
Yavamot 24B, converts are not accepted in the days of the Messiah.
JoshHOST
Rosh-- Rabbi Yehoshua is worried about the minority.
JoshHOST
The problem is we have a completely different context in Yevamot where we see Rabbi Yehoshua does not worry about the minority.
JoshHOST
What is the case in Yevamot? Let's say you're back in the olden days with no WhatsApp and Facebook and phones, and Reuven and Rachel are going overseas to start their lives somewhere else.
JoshHOST
And now Reuven's an only child right now.
JoshHOST
But Reuven's mother is, uh, pregnant as they are getting on this boat to never see their family again.
