Daf Hayomi Riddle

DAF HASHAVUA

MAKOS 22a

​

Special thanks to הרה"ג ר' ישראל קלצקין שליט"א who sent this in.

There is a מחלוקת in the Mishna between the תנא קמא & ר' יהודה , How many מלקות one gets for being עובר on a לאו

According to the  ת"ק he gets 39  מלקות. According to ר"י he gets 40 מלקות

​How would it be possible for a person*  to receive the same amount of Malkos according to both ( ת"ק & ר"י)

*​He is healthy  and no need to reduce the Malkos.​

Going Of The Derech

DAF HASHAVUA

Bava Basra 110a

אמר רבא הנושא אשה צריך שיבדוק באחיה          

The Steipler zt"l said, " Chazal  who require

to check out the brother of the girl you intend to

marry, is only applicable in a time and place where

all are Frum*. In such a case if the brother is not 

Frum, then you should suspect that there is a bad root

in the Mishpacha.

In today's age where there are so many distractions

and the streets are flooded with immorality etc.

If the son ch"v  goes off the Derech it is not the fault 

of the father. It is not a פגם (blemish) in the family and 

one may marry the sister". 

With this סברא we can understand how

our Zaida Yitzchok married Rivka and wasn't

concerned with her brother Lavan. אמבצי

Daf Hashavua

Bava Basra 10b

                                 הרוגי מלכות אין כל בריה יכולה לעמוד במחיצתן 

The four levels of Kedoshim

1) A Yid who was killed by a Goy even if it was not an antisemitic act (robbery), is a קדוש.

See Shu"t Chasam Sofer (Y.D. 333) based on Sanhedrin 47a וכיון דאיקטול קרי להו עבדיך

& Rashi (Tehillim 79:2) בשר חסידיך - משקבלו פורענותם הרי הם חסידים  

A Yid whose life was cut short by a Goy killing him acquires his  כפרה

2) A Yid who was killed by an anti-Semite because he is Jewish. (Holocaust victims etc.)

See Shu"t Mahril 99, who refers to them as קדושי עליון and says on them

 אין כל בריה יכולה לעמוד במחיצתן   

3a) A Yid who was forced by a Goy to be Oiver one of the ג' עבירות (or any Mitzvah

if there is a Gezeira to be oiver) and was killed for refusing to be oiver, is a קדוש.     

3b) If this was done in front of 10 Yidden He is a מקדש  שם שמים ברבים

(Rambam יסודי התורה פרק ה.)     

4) A Yid who sacrificed his life to save other Yidden. He is the ultimate קדוש 

on whom Chazal (Bava Basra 10b) say  אין כל בריה יכולה לעמוד במחיצתן.
