Does Every Step of Walking Count as Stopping?
Part of Shabbos (Iyun) · 57:07

ืขืืื ื goes on to ืืฃ ื ืขืืื ื. The Gemara brings here ืชื ื ืจืื ื, ืืืืฆืื ืืื ืืช ืืคืืืื ืืจื ืกืชื ืืืื, ืืื ืขืืื ืคืืืจ. If someone walks out from a ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื and carries something, and carries it into the ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, but he walks through a ืืจืืืืช in the middle, so Ben Azai, so the Chachamim first say you're chayav because the bottom line is that you made an ืขืงืืจื in ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื, and you carried it into the ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, and you made a ืื ืื in ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื. So, if a person makes an ืขืงืืจื in ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื and a ืื ืื in ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, you're chayav. And Ben Azai says since you walked through the ืืงืื ืคืืืจ, you are patur. And the Gemara explains what the ืืืืืงืช is between Ben Azai and the Chachamim. So the Gemara says ืื ืขืืื ืงืกืืจ ืืืื ืืขืืื ืืื.
Ben Azai holds that when you walk, every step you take is as if it stopped. So basically, when you took started off from ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื and you walked through the ืืจืืืืช, every step that you took in the ืืจืืืืช is as if you stopped. So he looks at it as if you made an ืขืงืืจื in ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื and a ืื ืื in the ืืจืืืืช. And then when you continued walking into the ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, you made a new ืขืงืืจื in the ืืจืืืืช and a ืื ืื in the ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, so you're patur. You're only chayav if you make an ืขืงืืจื in ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื, and without stopping in the middle, you make a ืื ืื in ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื. But since ืืืื ืืขืืื, walking is like standing, which means every time you take a step, we look at it as if you stopped and continued, and stopped and continued, Mimela, it's as if you stopped in the middle in the in the ืืจืืืืช. The Rabbanan disagree, and the Rabbanan say ืืืื ืืื ืืขืืื ืืื. So therefore, it's not considered as if you stopped in the ืืจืืืืช. So the Rabbanan look at it that you walked straight from the ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื to the ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, and that's why you're ืืืื. If you make an ืขืงืืจื in ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื and a ืื ืื in ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, you are ืืืื.
What we're going to discuss is what is the Sevara behind the Machloket whether we say ืืืื ืืขืืื ืืื or not. On a first glance, the Machloket is whether we say this Sevara that when you walk, every step you take is you stop. Ben Azai holds that every step is considered that you stopped, and Beit Hillel says it's not, and the Rabbanan say it's not considered as if you stopped. So you have a Machloket whether we say ืืืื ืืขืืื. But there must be some Sevara behind it. This is not some Machloket punkt like this. I mean, you could say that way. Not you could say, that's the Peshitut, but it seems like it's Pashut a ืืืืืงืช ืืืฆืืืืช whether it's called stopping or not. So there are others that want to explain the Machloket a little differently. There's a ืกืคืจ they bring down, I didn't see it inside actually, called Chafetz Hashem, I don't even know who wrote it. Some, a late guy, or And he wants to say the Machloket is like this. Lichora, we have a major She'eila on Ben Azai. Ben Azai says that it's as if you stopped in the middle. Why? Because ืืืื ืืขืืื.
Don't we know that even when you really really stop, it's only called stopping, Mimela it's called a ืื ืื, and then from there on it's a new ืขืงืืจื, if you did it ืื ืืคืฉ, not ืืืชืฃ. Even when a guy Pashut walks and he actually stops, but he stops only ืืืชืฃ, ืืืชืฃ means, as we learn in the Gemara, only to fix the package on the shoulder, but he didn't really mean to stop, that's not called stopping. Even though physically he stopped. He's walking, and he stops because it's bothering him, and he stopped for a minute and he's fixing his package, and he continues walking, that's not called stopping. When is it called stopping? If he stops ืื ืืคืฉ, if he stops to rest. So the she'elah is, it's a moradikeh she'elah, how does Ben Azai say that because ืืืื ืืขืืื it's as if you stopped? Naniach, let's say it's as if you stopped, but it definitely didn't stop ืื ืืคืฉ, you didn't stop to rest. So ืื ืืื if you mamash physically stop and it's not made to rest, it's not called stopping and it's not called a hanachah. So let's say even according to the Rabbanan, if somebody walks ืืณ ืืืืช ืืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, and in middle he stopped, or someone, and do we say he stopped only because he wants to fix his package, physically stopped. Nevertheless, it's not called stopping. So how could the Ben Azai say that when you walk, ืืืื ืืขืืื ืืื, you're really walking, but because every step that you take is like you stopped? But definitely it's not you stopped lifush, you didn't stop to rest. U'vikhlal, you didn't stop, it's we look at it as if you stopped. So how could Ben Azai say that that's a called stopping, when stop, we know from the Gemara that stopping ืืืชืฃ, even stopping if it's not for the purpose of fixing your package and continuing to walk, it's not called stopping? So they want to say that Ben Azai takeh argues on this ืืื. Ben Azai holds that it doesn't have to be lifush, that even if you stopped ืืืชืฃ, if you stopped to fix your fix your package, as long as it is a stop, it's called stopping, and it's called a hanachah. He disagrees with this ืืื. Even though the Gemara said, what did the Gemara say here? ืืืจ ืืืื, ืืืื ืฉืขืื ืืืจ ืืืื, ืืืื ืฉืขืื ืืคืืฉ. He disagrees. So now we have a way to learn the machloket between Ben Azai and the Chachamim, very simple. They both agree that ืืืื ืืขืืื. Yeah, that the whole machloket what the ืืฆืืืืช is, everyone agrees that every step that you take is stopping. But Ben Azai says that stopping is is enough halachah called stopping. And mimela if it's called stopping, it's called that you stopped in the ืืจืืืืช. So you started in ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื, stopped in the ืืจืืืืช, ah you didn't stop to rest, but it's not it's enough, as long as there is an ืขื ืื of stopping, it's called hanachah. Then you continued again, it's a new akirah, so you stopped in the ืืจืืืืช, and then you started in the ืืจืืืืช, you stopped or something, you're patur. And the Chachamim say no, we agree with you that it's like you stopped. The problem is, the Rabbanan say that stopping doesn't count, because if you'd really stop it wouldn't count. So certainly if you stopped with which is not a physical stopping, and definitely you didn't stop to rest, and that's what the Rabbanan say, we don't consider it stopped, and therefore you are chayav. Ah? No, when you name it ืืคืืฉ means that he is... Farkert, no, so then it shouldn't be called stopping. But Ben Azai holds we don't care. Ben Azai says even if you're ืืืื ืืขืช that you didn't mean to stop, but if you physical this is what he learns: if you physically stopped we don't If it's If there is a stop, we don't care what your intentions are. That's what he holds. He disagrees with this klal that we said that it has to be with the intentions of resting. ืืฉืืดื the Rabbanan say no, this is the way we hold, and this taka we pasken. We pasken like Abaye that it has to be when is it called stopping, if you stopped to rest, and therefore the Rabbanan say this is not called stopping. So again, according to this, they both agree that ืืืื ืืขืืื. The she'eilah is is that an ืขืืื which is enough to call stopping as a hanachah? No. If you would hold like this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right, good, yeah. The problem with this pshat is that most mefarshim don't learn like that. Most mefarshim learn that Ben Azai does agree, Ben Azai also, everyone agrees to this din that when you stop ืืืชืฃ only to fix your package, it's not called stopping, and you're only chayav if you stopped for the purpose of stopping. How to answer the kashya, but ืืคืืขื he didn't, we'll say that in a second, but ืืคืืขื if Ben Azai holds like that too, ืืื ืืื Ben Azai holds that when you ืืืื ืืขืืื is considered stopping for the sake of stopping. So you can't say this is the machloket. We got to find a different way to say the machloket. I'll I'll explain what taka the pshat. Why is it considered stopping if a Ben Azai would hold and if we say everyone agrees that stopping is only called stopping if he stopped ืืืขื stopping, he stopped to rest, but not if you stopped for purpose of continuing to walk, then how could a Ben Azai say that because ืืืื ืืขืืื it's called he stopped in the ืืจืืืืช? He didn't stop, he walked, so he certainly didn't stop ืืคืืฉ. The pshat is like this. Call me right back. The pshat is like this. It doesn't go in time. When we say there's a difference between ืืคืืฉ and ืืืชืฃ doesn't go in time. It's not time. It's not the pshat that ืืืชืฃ is a short time, you only stop to fix your package, it takes 30 seconds, but if you stopped to rest, you'll stop for 5 minutes, so it's a longer time that's That's not the pshat. It's possible to stop to rest to be shorter than stopping ืืืชืฃ if you have a big package. And it's, well, it takes to the, a whole ganze gesheft till you fix your shoulders, and you fix the straps, and could be it takes 5 minutes, and it's not called stopping. And sometimes you can stop to rest, and you stop just for 1 minute, and you catch your breath, oh, it's enough, and you continue. So it doesn't go on time. What is the pshat? We use the terms, stopping to rest or stopping to fix your package. It's only a the term we, but that's not what we mean. We mean, is it a stop ืืฉื stopping, or is it a stop not ืืฉื stopping? You're trying to be able to to, not because you want to stop. See, the emet is like this. It's not even because stopping to fix your package is al menat to walk. When you rest it's also al menat. What happens if a guy stops to rest because he's tired, and he can't continue walking? So he says, \"You know what? Let me rest for 5 minutes.\" One one second, mister, I didn't finish it. So, even that doesn't mean that it's not This is for the sake of continuing, this is not for the sake of continuing. The vort is, did you mean to stop, or you didn't mean to stop? When you stop to rest, what it means is you meant to stop. If you mean to stop, that's called stopping. If you mean to stop because, not because you want to stop, that's not called stopping. That's not called resting. That's the vort. Now, if ืืืื ืืขืืื, and every and that's the fact, so whenever you walk, and walking means stopping, so, this is what you mean to do. You mean to walk, which walking means to stop every second, and that's what the your intentions are. Your intentions to walk in the way walking is, and walking is stopping, so you're intending to stop, whatever stopping means. It's not a vort in time, how long it goes, or intentions is to continue walking. You can have in mind to continue walking, and it's still called, much like I said, ืจืื ืืคืืฉ is to continue walking. You stop to rest so you should be able to continue, because otherwise you can't continue. So that's not called resting? Bekitzur, usually stopping in the middle of a trip to rest is because otherwise, if you wouldn't If you'd be able to continue, you wouldn't stop. You want to continue, and you can't because you're tired, so you stop. So what it means is, is this ืืฉื stopping or not? So Ben Azai holds that because you're stopping, you're you're it's ืืืื ืืขืืื, so automatically that ืขืืื is part of your intentions. You're intending to do what you're doing. So if ืืืื ืืขืืื, you're intending to stop, whatever the stopping is, even though if it's a short sec it's a split second, that stop. Every time, doesn't go in time. Now, you could say maybe that that's the machloket. That Ben Azai says that this is called, that is called ืขืืื ืืคืืฉ, and not that Ben Azai holds that it doesn't have to be ืขืืื ืืคืืฉ. He holds this is considered ืขืืื ืืคืืฉ, and the Rabbanan not. It's a possibility to say that this is the machloket. But really what I want to get is to say So, right now we had two ways of learning the machloket. The first way doesn't sound right, the second way sounds more. Actually, we
have three ways already. First way is, is it considered stopping or not? ืืืื ืืขืืื or not? The second way we said is, they both agree with ืืืื ืืขืืื, but whether it has to be ืืคืืฉ or not. Ben Azai says it doesn't have to be ืืคืืฉ, and he says it does, second way. Now we're saying a third way, that and saying it's a shvere way. The third way is that they that they both hold that it's ืืืื ืืขืืื. They both hold that it has to be ืืคืืฉ, but what's the pshat in ืืคืืฉ? So Ben Azai holds ืืคืืฉ does not mean resting, physically resting. ืืคืืฉ means you're intending to do what, but you're intending to stop. And in this case, if walking means stopping, and that's what you're intending to do, so you're intending to stop. And and I keep on saying, and the the Rabbanan will argue, the Rabbanan hold that this is not called, it has to be mamash a physical stop. But you could go a step further and say the pshat is a little bit more. And that is, as I noticed, that a lot of the ืืืืจืื who looked up some of the mareh mekomot, looked at the sichot, figured it out right away what I was trying to say. And I'm happy, so you got the ืฉื ืื. And this is based on the sicha in ืืืง ืืดื. You know, if someone wants to would give me it, it must be around a lot because guys were looking at it. Pinchas. ืืืง ืืดื, ืขืืื 312. So here, the Rebbe brings a machloket between Beit Shammai and Beit Hillel. Not a machloket, a ืืฉืืืชืื of their machloket. Now usually, we know the ืืฉืืืชืื ืืืืืงืช ืืืช ืฉืืื ืืืช ืืื is ืืื ืืืคืืขื. This is not it. It's a different ืืฉืืืชืื. Actually, I remember when the Rebbe said this sicha by the farbrengen, and the Rebbe started off with the whole thing and comes here with the ืืืื, and then he said that this is going to depend on the ืืฉืืืชืื. You're coming back? Keep in mind, don't forget. This is 120. The 104 walked out, 115. Back? Oh, you're back. Oh, okay. Oh, good, I'm sorry. He's walking so fast. Okay, so I remember when the Rebbe said that this will be dependent on the ืืืืืงืช, ืืืช ืฉืืื ืืฉืืืชืื, ืืืช ืฉืืื ืืืช ืืื, I remember sitting by the farbrengen and assuming, expecting to come, as we know that ืืืช ืฉืืื ืืืช ืืื ืืื ืืืคืืขื, that's one of the Rebbe's things that he kacht zich many times, all of a sudden ืขืคืขืก a new biur. If you think about it, probably they're connected, ืืื ืืืคืืขื, to this machloket. The Rebbe here brings a ืืืืืงืช ืืืช ืฉืืื ืืืช ืืื, and he brings, he says, ืืื ืืฉืืืชืืืื ืืืื, they hold, and he brings six examples. And he says he's going to bring an example of, one example of each ืกืืจ in ืืฉื ืืืช, in Shas, which is ืฉืฉื ืกืืจื ืืฉื ื. And
I'm going to just bring two because these first two bring the, show this sevara. And this is the nekudah the Rebbe said: The machloket is whether you look at things the way it is ืืืืคื ืืืื, or you look at things and you go on ืืืืคื ืคืจืื. And the first example is the one that gives out the best, that's a ืกืืจ ืืืขื, he said, Seder Zeraim I mean, and that's in Maseches Berachos. When it comes to make a ืืจืื ืืืฆืื ืฉืืช on havdalah, on the candle, what brachah do you make? So, Beis Shammai says you make a brachah: ืืจืื ืืืืจ ืืืฉ. And Beis Hillel says you make a brachah: ืืืจื ืืืืจื ืืืฉ. The difference is ืืืืจ is ืืฉืื ืืืื, ืืืืจื is ืืฉืื ืจืืื. So, read inside, he says, ืืืช ืฉืืื ืืืืจืื ืฉืืจื ืืืืจ ืืืฉ, ืืืืช ืืื ืืืืจืื ืืืจื ืืืืจื ืืืฉ. And the Gemara is ืืกืืืจ the machlokes. ืืืช ืฉืืื ืกืืจื ืืื ื ืืืจื ืืืื ืื ืืจื. Beis Shammai says there's one fire. When you have a fire, it's one fire. ืืื ืขื ืืฉ ืืื ืื ืืืืื ืืืื ืืฉ, ืืืื ืืืื, one color, one fire. And therefore, ืืืจืฃ ืืขื ืืืื ืืืืจ ืืืฉืื ืืืื. You thank Hashem for making the ืืืืจ. ืืืืจ is the fire, ืืืืจ ืืืฉ. ืืืืช ืืื ืกืืจื ืืืื ื ืืืจื ืืืื ืื ืืจื. Beis Hillel holds that there are a lot of colors in the fire, a lot of fires. And the Gemara says: ืชื ืื ื ืื ืืื ืืืจื ืืื ืืืช ืืื ืืืืช ืฉืืื, ืืจืื ืืืืจืืช ืืฉ ืืืฉ. And he gives them an example, you have a ืฉืืืืช ืืืืื, you have a red fire, you have the white fire, you have the blue fire. ืืจืงืจืง is something we ืืืืืฉ usually green, but sometimes it means blue. Therefore, ืืืจืฃ ืืขื ืืืื ืืืืจื, ืืฉืื ืจืืื. So, the Rebbe asks a she'eilah, it's pashut that Beis Shammai and ืืืช ืืื ืงืจืืื ื ืืฉื on a metzius, they're not arguing in a fact. Because the ืืฆืืืืช, ืืขื ืืขื ืื ืขืก ืืขื ืขื ืื ืืืื ืืงืข ืืืื ืื in the fire. Everyone know, you look at a fire, you'll see more than one color. ืืื ืืืื ืืืช ืฉืืื ืื ืืื ื ืืืจื ืืืื ืื ืืจื, how do they say there's only one color, one fire? No, the hesber davon is like this: ืืืช ืฉืืื ืืืืื ืื ืขื ืคื ืชืืจื, ืืืขืจื ืขื ืื ืื ืืขืืงืจ ืืืฉืืืื ืืื ืื ืืกืื ืคืื ืืืืขืจ ืชืืื ืืืืื. When it comes ืขื ืคื ืชืืจื to decide different things, you look at the general, klal. ืืื ืขืก ืืืขืจื ืืขื ืืืขื ืืืื ืขืจืฉืื ืืืืืช'ืืืงื ืืืืง, the first look you had of what the klal is. And he gives examples. The shittah of Beit Hillel is, ืืืขืจ ื'ืืืจืฃ ืืขืืงืจ ืจืขืืขื ืขื ืืื ืื ืขื ืื ืื wie werden ืคืื ืื ืืขืจืืขืืืืืขืจื ืืื ืืืืขืจืข ืคืจืืื. You have to go in the details. ืืื ืื ืคืจืืื ืืขื ืขื ื ืืฉื ื ืืืจ ืืืืื ืืื ืืขื ืขืจืฉืื ืืืืง, as you look at it at first glance, you don't see the pratim, you have to look into it. Nevertheless, that ืืืก ืืืงืขืื, is ืืืจืืข on the ืื ืืื. When it comes to Torah the ikar is the pratim. ืืขืจืืื ืืื ืืืื the ta'am for their machloket. That explains the machloket. The din by berachot, he says, because by berachah is you have to have hana'ah from it, so when you see it, so he says a sevara like this: ืืขืจืืืขืจ ืืืืื ืืืช ืฉืืื ืื ืืืื ืื ืืจืื ืืืจืฃ ืืืื ืืืืฃ ืื ืืจืืื ืคืื ืืืืืช ืืืฉ. ืืืืืืช, there's one fire, ืืืืจ ืืืฉ. ืืืงืขืื ืืืช ืืื ื ืขืืขื ืื ืื ืฉืืื ืื ืืืืืืื ื'ืืื ืืชืืื ื ืืื ืขื ืืฉ, ืื ืืขื ืืขื ืืื ืืืืจืืช. When you look at it and you look into it, you'll see many colors. ืืืจืฃ ืืขืจืคืืจ ืื ื ืืกื ืืืจืื ืืืื, ืืืจื ืืืืจื ืืืฉ. So, here we see that when you have two possibilities, not always do they argue because not always do you have two possibilities. Sometimes, no such thing as ืืืืืืช it's one way and ืืคืจืืืืช it's another way. Here's an example where we do have: ืืืืืืช, so fire is one, ืืคืจืืืืช, there are many different pratim. So, Beit Shammai says you have to look at the klal, Beit Hillel the pratim. Okay, then he had
another example which makes it also clearer to understand, in Seder Nashim, Ketubot. ืืืฆื ืืจืงืืื ืืคื ื ืืืื? What do you sing in front of a kallah? So, Beit Hillel says ืืื ื ืื ืืืกืืื, ืืื that's nice and and kind. And Beit Hillel, uBeit Shammai say, what are you talking about? And what happens if if she's she's not nice and she's not kind? How do you say such a thing? So, what do you have to say? ืืื ืืืืช ืฉืืื. Whatever she is, fine. What's the machloket here? Now, the machloket just could be that Beit Shammai holds you have to say the truth and Beit Hillel says you should lie? Actually, the Gemara asks, ืืืืจ ืฉืงืจ ืชืจืืง. Beit Hillel says no, even if she's not kind, you're not to say that she's kind. Say she's nice, not true. So, the Rebbe explains like this. And I'll say it by heart. The truth is that she's takeh they say what happens if she's she's limping, and she's blind, and she's all kinds of chesronot, how could you say she's a kallah? The guy married her! Why did he marry her? He didn't see that all these things? Sure he saw. But he found other ma'alot in her, obviously. He found that there's something that fits for him, and he finds that she's good, and she's in certain things. You don't see that at first glance, but if you look into it and you think about it, you see that he probably did. So Beit Shammai says you have to look at it at the first glance. First glance, what you see bichlalot, bichlalot she's not. Bifratyut you could look into the details, you'll see. And Beit Hillel says no, you look into the details. And if you look at, that's the way you judge it, and in the details it becomes there is, yes, whichever way she is ื ืื ืืืกืืื, in his eyes she's ื ืื, and there are things in which way she is ื ืื ืืืกืืื. And then the Rebbe brings more examples from different, four more places in Shas, in different ืกืืจืื in Shas. Lichora, so
what the, at lichora, trying to say that maybe this is a machloket between Ben Azai and the chachamim. Not that they hold like Beit Shammai Beit Hillel, but the same logic that we find by the ืฉืืืืช even Beit Shammai Beit Hillel you could apply here, too. When a person walks, bichlalot, he's walking, he's not standing. That's if you look at bichlalot. Bifratyut, if you look into, you mamash, you judge at the details, each step is a stop and a go, a stop and a go. So I want to say the machloket is not ืคืฉืื ืืืฉืืืืช whether we say ืืืื ืืขืืื, that each step is called stopping. Everyone agrees each step is called stopping, but that's only when you look at the details. But if you look at the klal, the klal is it's not stopping. And that's the machloket. Just like over here, we have cases where if you look at the klal it'll be one way, and you look at the pratim it'll be one way, and the machloket is, what does the Torah want you to do? What does the Torah accept as the the thing to judge and pasken the halacha according? Should we pasken the halacha according to the klal or according to the prat? Same thing here. Ben Azai holds that you look at everything according to the prat, similar to what Beit Hillel says there. And therefore he says, yes, since if you look into the ืคืจืืื it is stopping, and he tells the Chachamim, you agree with me that it's stopping. Ela mai? You claim you don't look at it, and I'm telling you we have to look at the ืคืจืืื. And the and the Chachamim say no, we say you have to look at the ืืื, and at the ืืื you're walking. Now,
someone before, when someone once asked me, so it comes out that Ben Azai holds like Beit Hillel, so we should pasken like Ben Azai. In truth is, maybe that's the pshat of the Rif. Maybe takeh, maybe that's why the Rif says that in this case we pasken like Beit Hillel, like like like Ben Azai, because he holds like Beit Hillel. But it's not a kashya on the others, okay, so according to the Rif you could say this pshat, but according to the others you can't? Not true, because it doesn't mean that we find Beit Shammai Beit Hillel over there, it means in every case will be exactly the same. I'm just bringing a general way of looking at things. And you could say that in this case, because of whatever reason, we could pasken that you go after the after the ืืื, even though by Beit Hillel we go after the ืคืจืืื. Yeah? That I said lechatchila is no problem. I explained why it's no problem. I guess you walked out. The ืื ืืคืฉ is no problem, because it's called ืขืืื ืื ืืคืฉ. Because ืื ืืคืฉ means if you're intending to stop. If you know that ืืืื ืืขืืื, that that's what you're intending to do, that's that's for sure. Ben Azai says, since ืืืื ืืขืืื and we judge the ืคืจืืื, so we judge a person when he goes, he's going according to what what going is, and going means stopping, so you meant to stop. I'll repeat again: ืื ืืคืฉ doesn't mean davka to rest or not, or you had intention to go further. You meant to stop, and he meant to stop. No, there you didn't mean to stop. There the whole, no, there the whole stop, I know ืืืฉืืืืช he meant to stop, but it's stopping not for the purpose of stopping. And here, if walking means stopping, you have to stop. It's like in a place you have to stop, that's what walking is, you can't, unless you jump! But otherwise you, so this is what you're intending, you're intending to walk, which walking contains stopping. That's called, that's like ืื ืืคืฉ, that's what you have to taytsh. So al kol panim, we are able to explain the machloket. They both agree ืืืื ืืขืืื, the she'elah is do we look at the ืคืจื of the ืขืืื or do we look at the ืืื of the ืืืื? No, Beis Shammai says you go with the kelal, yeah. So here it doesn't fit if you pasken like the ืจืื ื. It pasken if it's like Ben Azai, it fits, because here Ben Azai holds like like Beis Hillel. But that's, what I'm saying, if you want to say pshat in the Rif, I think takeh in the Rif you could say that. But I'm saying it's no kashya, so how did the others learn? And since it doesn't fit, so assuming the pshat is not a good pshat, I'm saying lav davka, because we're talking about a general logic, yeah? I wanted to say different, no, that's what I said before, that's one way to learn. I explained that, that's I said three ways before you could learn. Now I'm saying a fourth way, and the fourth way means not that there's a machlokes whether this is called ืื ืืคืฉ or not. Everyone would agree this is called ืื ืืคืฉ. The she'eilah, do we look at the lechat'chilah stopping So now we have four ways of explaining the basis of the machlokes between Ben Azai and the chachamim. If you walk slower than, okay, still walking. It's stopping even if you walk fast. It doesn't go on time, like I said before. It does not if they're not stopping, and then how long did you stop? What do you want to ask, nu? Well, that doesn't say, be-feirush says it, I mean. If if you say that, like the Rif. Lich'orah, this should be also a be'ur in the machlokes of Rabbi Akiva and the chachamim whether we say ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื. It could be the same thing. ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื means, when it's flying, we say it's as if it's stopping, and and Rabbi Akiva holds like and the ืจืื ื say not. So, if you remember from one of the shiurim before, quite a few shiurim ago, I explained what is the sevara of the machlokes ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื between the Rabbi Akiva and the chachamim. So, if you remember, I explained it based on how the Tosafos Yeshanim learns over there in ืืฃ ืืณ ืขืืื ืืณ, and how Tosafos learns, and what did I say then? Just in short, not going to go through the peratim, just in the ื ืงืืื ืืืืืช, that according to Tosafos Yeshanim, why ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื? Not because it's like it stopped. We don't need it to stop, because I explained, what do they hold? Why do we at all need ืขืงืืจื and ืื ืื by ืืืฆืื? Because otherwise it's not a real ืฉืื ืื ืฉืื ืื. So, I asked a ืฉืืื, why is the ืขืงืืจื itself not enough? When you make an ืขืงืืจื, you're uprooting from one ืจืฉืืช, and you're taking it to the other ืจืฉืืช, why is that not enough to make a ืฉืื ืื?
Why do we need ืืืืงื ืื ืื? So, I said why do we need ืืืืงื ืื ืื? Ein hachi nami, you takeh don't need. You only need it because you picked it up with a hand, and the same hand is going into the other ืจืฉืืช, so it really never left the original spot. So, you have to put it down because it's taken in by hand. But if you, that's a ืฉืื ืื, but if you throw it, so it left your hand, you don't need an ืื ืื! So, it's not that ืคืฉื ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื when it's flying in the air it's like it landed. No! B'feirush it didn't land, but it doesn't have to land, because the ืขืงืืจื is good enough, because the ืขืงืืจื makes a ืฉืื ืื ืจืฉืืช. That's how I said Tosafot Yeshanim will learn pshat in Rabbi Akiva. And what did I say the Rabbanan learned pshat in Rabbi Akiva? ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื that no, b'feirush you have to have an ืื ืื, and this is an ืื ืื, because as it goes, every time it stops. What do the Rabbanan hold? So, how did I explain according to Tosafot Yeshanim the Rabbanan hold we don't say ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื, why? Because either pshat is they say that you need an ืื ืื, not like you said that you don't need an ืื ืื, the only reason you need is to take away the problem of your hand. You need an ืื ืื, so therefore you can't, it can't be ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื. Or, they hold that even though when it's flying it also, just like if you take it with your hand it never left the original hand, flying in the air also never left, because why is it flying? Because of your ืื ืืืจืืงื, so it's still you. Therefore, they say you have to land. All right, so that's according to Tosafot Yeshanim. According to Tosafot, they hold that we do not say it goes every ื ืงืืื ืื ืงืืื, so it doesn't say it stops. So, I gave a different biur in what is the ืืืืืงืช between Rabbi Akiva and the ืืืืื, ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื. Likhora,
why can't I say what I said now? You could say the same thing. Be'emet, everyone agrees that it stops! Everyone agrees ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื! Just like we're saying here, everyone agrees ืืืื ืืขืืื. ืืื ืืื, ืจืื ืขืงืืื says that we look at the peratim, because bichlalot it's not stopping, even more than walking. Walking we said is called bichlalot walking not stopping, flying in the air certainly. But ืืืืืืช, ืืคืจืืืืช, everyone agrees that we look at it as if it's going ื ืงืืื ืื ืงืืื, so it's stopping. So, Rabbi Akiva says we look at the peratim, and and the chachamim say we look at, we don't look at the peratim. Taka no, I said let's not say that. That yeah, that they all agree that you have to have an hanacha. The she'eila, is this called an hanacha? And everyone agrees it did stop! It's like it stopped. The she'eila, do we consider this in in halacha because it's only if you look at the peratim, but if you look at the klal, it's not. So, the chachamim say we don't look at the peratim, we look at the klal, just like the chachamim say here. And Ben Azzai holds here that you look at the peratim, so over there Rabbi Akiva holds you look at the peratim. I'm saying maybe. Yeah. Nobody, it's ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื, they had an hanacha. That's what we we'll probably we'll get into that into soon. But the problem, there are more problems, but one problem that I'm going to say, if we say this peshat, it would come out that whoever holds ืืืื ืืขืืื has to hold ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื. Because we're saying it's exactly the same thing, the same reasoning, that everyone agrees in both cases that it's stopping, it's called stopping. There's no machloket in that. Machloket is whether we And everyone agrees that bichlalot it's not stopping in both cases. So it would seem that everyone who holds ืืืื ืืขืืื has to hold ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื. Whoever doesn't hold ืืืื ืืขืืื cannot hold ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื. Or whoever holds ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื has to hold ืืืื ืืขืืื, because it's basically the same thing. But is it true that Ben Azzai who holds ืืืื ืืขืืื holds ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื? Pshita not! Where do we see pshita not? I mean where do we see it? What? Yeah! ืืืื ืจืื ืขืงืืื ืืืืจืง. If Rabbi Akiva is modeh that if you threw it, you're chayav. ืื, it went through the ืืจืืืืช? If you hold ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื, it probably it, and you look at the pratim, it stopped there! So ืืื ืืื, we assume that Ben Azzai holds ืืืื ืืขืืื and he does not hold ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื. So therefore, it's hard to say that the machloket is in both. So either you say the machloket is in this one, not in the other, or in one, not the other, but it's hard to say the machloket is in both. ืืื ืฉืืฉืขืช ืืืืง you could bidchak say that they argue whether you look at the pratim, the she'elah what are the pratim. In ืคืจืืื ืืืคื there are ืืจืืืช. The walking is more a prat that you could consider it, because after all, because you do see you put your foot down. ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื is far-fetched. Even though we say everyone would agree ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื, but such pratim that everyone will agree don't. Maybe. It's a dochak. Normally, it would not be like that, and therefore it's hard to say that that's the machloket. Therefore, I said last time that the machloket there is other reasons as I explained. No, but why does Ben Azzai not hold like that? That would be the she'elah. If Ben Azzai says that when you walk and be'etzem it's stopping and we look at the pratim, why would he not hold ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื? That's the she'elah, why would he? So I said that the sevara is not the same. But now I'm saying maybe he says there it's too far. And you could say it, but ืืื ืืขืืคืคืช it wouldn't be. So therefore, I'm not saying a hundred percent that this option is not good, because you could bish'at hadchak, bidchak make a chiluk between that here he holds we go after the pratim, but not the pratim over there, because it's too far-fetched, you don't see the pratim at all. You could make for the dochak. But I'd rather say that that's not the machloket, and over there the machloket is a different reason. The machloket is, like I said before, a different reason. Okay. But over here, we're saying the machloket is, based on the ืฉืืื in Chelek ืืดื, whether you look at the klal, or you look at the peratim. What I want to say is, further, based on this that this is the machloket, we could go a step further and explain another ื ืงืืื. Tosafot, huh? Okay, our case is the machloket whether it's klal or perat. Over there it's not. I'm saying the option over there I said is not, and we'll stick to here, and here the reason is because of klal or perat. And over there, the reason is other reasons
that I gave. Now, based on this, we could explain something else. Tosafot brings the kushya that the Yerushalmi asks: According to ืื ืขืืื ืืืื ืืขืืื, how do you have ืืณ ืืืืช ืืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื? How could you ever, if you carry four, you walk with something and you carry ืืณ ืืืืช and you're chayav, but in the middle you stopped according to Ben Azai! Yerushalmi answers: ืืืงื if, only if you jump! But you're not walking. If you jump ืืณ ืืืืช, then you're chayav. Comes Tosafot and says that, huh? No. ืื ืคืืื. ืงืืคืฅ, but not Right, our Gemara, Tosafot says, ืฉืดืก ืืืื doesn't have the she'eilah because it's no problem to begin with. Why? Because ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื. The whole din of ืืณ ืืืืช ืืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื is a ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื, and therefore, since it's a ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื, we don't care, ืืืื ืืกืื ื basically, that it doesn't have to make sense. That means that even though ืืืื ืืขืืื and normally when you walk it's called stopping, but not by ืืณ ืืืืช ืืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, and that's why Tosafot has it. It would simplify the whole thing. Which means Tosafot is basically saying it makes no sense, it's a ืืืืจืช ืืืชืื. Even though it's against the rule, The rule is ืืืื ืืขืืื, ืืณ ืืืืช is a different din, it's a ืืืืจืช ืืืชืื. Why would the ืฉืดืก ืืืื, according to Tosafot, not accept the terutz of jumping? ืืืื is an easy, usually, when do we answer when we have a kashya and we say, \"Well, we don't make a... when a kashya doesn't make sense, gezeirat hakatuv\"? When do we say that? We have no choice. We try not to answer that. All over the Gemara and the mefarshim, they don't answer, \"Well, ืืืื ืืื ืืืก, ืชืืจื says so, we don't know.\" If we have no other breira, then we answer that. Same thing halacha l'Moshe miSinai. When we say halacha l'Moshe miSinai, it doesn't fit... what Tosafot is saying, it doesn't fit with the rule. The rule is ืืืื ืืขืืื, so the rule is you stopped in the middle of ืืณ ืืืืช. Halacha l'Moshe miSinai says we disregard it, we don't care. Why wouldn't Tosafot, why wouldn't the Gemara accept the terutz of jumping? What's the inyan of, why stick with jumping? Ela mai? The sevara would be to say that the whole din of ืืณ ืืืืช ืืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื is only if you jump, which is not a common thing, that's what doesn't fit. So the shaila is why does the Yerushalmi hold like that? It's a good shaila, if you... since it's a very not common thing to say that the whole halacha l'Moshe miSinai of ืืณ ืืืืช ืืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื is only if you jumped. Okay, so what we're going to say is that the sevara of the machloket is how uncommon is it? Very ืืขืืืชืืฉืข ืกืืจื maybe. Yerushalmi learns that it's not so bad, it is some common, you could learn. ืฉืดืก ืืืื learns it's very not common, and memeila, if it's not common at all, we can't say it, we have to say it's halacha l'Moshe miSinai. So again, it's a machloket ืืืฆืืืืช. Go find out, take a statistic, take a poll, see how common is it to jump, I don't know. That's by mitzvot. We're not talking about mitzvot, but... Yeah, a Yid only... when does a Yid walk? Only to do mitzvot. For a mitzvah, you jump, so... Anyway. So there's another way to answer the machloket between Yerushalmi and and Tosafot. And the peshat is based on what it says in Sdei Chemed. The
Shdei Chemed brings the She'elot u-Teshuvot Chesed la-Avraham. And he brings a chakirah what's noga to another ืขื ืื there, ืืืื Yom Kippur, a ืฉืืื whether there's a ืืื of carrying, issur of carrying ืืณ ืืืืช on Yom Kippur. Bichlal we know any of any issur of Shabbos, any issur that the Torah tells us about Shabbos also applies to Yom Kippur. So the ืฉืืื is the ืขื ืื of carrying ืืณ ืืืืช ืืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื is not written in the Torah nowhere. It's not taken from the ืืฉืื. It's not like a regular thing, it's a special ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื. Does that also apply to Yom Kippur? And he says it depends on a chakirah. The chakirah is when the ืืืื, we say ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื said that you're not allowed to carry ืืณ ืืืืช ืืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, what did it say? Did ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื say that this is asur, you're not allowed to carry ืืณ ืืืืช, that's what ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื said, we on our own, he doesn't taytsh it like this, but that's what we have to say, we on our own, the chachamim decided it must be a toldah of hotza'ah, because after all, it's in the category of carrying, and we have one melachah of carrying called hotza'ah, and here the ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื said you can't carry ืืณ ืืืืช, so we put it into the, into hotza'ah and put it in the category of hotza'ah? Or he says the other way is ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื ืืืชืืืื said, \"You should know that carrying ืืณ ืืืืช is a toldah of hotza'ah.\" And mimela we know it's assur. It never said it's assur, it's a toldah of hotzaah, and a toldah of hotzaah, it means it's assur. What's the nafka mina? The way he brings over there is noge'a, if you hold the first way, ืืืื ืืืฉื said just that it's an issur, so who says it applies to Yom Kippur? Yom Kippur, we know, learn out from ืืืืืืื that all the issurim that the Torah made for Shabbos automatically apply to Yom Kippur. The Torah never made an issur of carrying ืืณ ืืืืช, it's a ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื which is a separate din, set for Shabbos. Why would we say that it goes for Yom Kippur, too? And mimela it could be for Yom Kippur, so it doesn't. If you hold that ืืืื ืืืฉื did not tell us it's assur, ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื said that carrying ืืณ ืืืืช is a toldah of hotzaah, and hotzaah does apply to Shabbos, we know that, that's part of of of what we of does apply to Yom Kippur, and all the dinim of hotzaah apply to Yom Kippur, ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื was just megaleh that hotzaah that ืืณ ืืืืช is also part of hotzaah. If it's part of hotzaah, whatever the din of hotzaah is by Yom Kippur, so it would be the same din with ืืณ ืืืืช. So the bottom line is, even though he claims this ืืงืืจื ืื ืืืข ืืื ืืืคืืจ, a different thing, the same thing could apply to here also. If you hold that ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื said that this is a ืชืืืื of ืืืฆืื, then it should have to fit all the ืืืจืื of ืืืฆืื. If by ืืืฆืื we say ืืืื ืืขืืื, so what would be by ืืณ ืืืืช? We should also have to say ืืืื ืืขืืื. Ai, how could you have a ืืณ ืืืืช if you say ืืืื ืืขืืื? There is no ืืจืืจื, we have to say it's by what? We have to say that the ืืื of ืืืื ืืขืืื applies to, to ืืณ ืืืืช also. Ai, how could it be? Must be jumping! Must be it's a case where there is no walking! If you say that like ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื said that this ืืณ ืืืืช is a ืชืืืื of ืืืฆืื, so it has all the ืืืจืื of ืืืฆืื. By ืืืฆืื, there is a ืืืจ according to Ben Azai ืืืื ืืขืืื, so by ืืณ ืืืืช has to be a ืืืจ ืืืื ืืขืืื. So we have to say ืืืื ืืขืืื by ืืืฆืื, by ืืณ ืืืืช. But then we have a ืงืืฉืื, how could you say? It's a contradiction. If you say ืืืื ืืขืืื by ืืณ ืืืืช, then you can't be chayav ever! Must be in a case where there is no ืืืื ืืขืืื. Where is that? ืงืคืืฆืืช, jumping. So Yerushalmi will learn that the pshat in the ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื is that ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื said that it's a ืชืืืื of ืืืฆืื. So even though jumping is not a common thing, but we have to say that's what the ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื meant. There's no other choice, because it said it's the same as ืืืฆืื. If you learn ืืืื ืืืฉื never said that, ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื just said that carrying ืืณ ืืืืช is assur, so who says it has all the ืืืจืื of ืืืฆืื? So maybe here there is no ืืืจ of ืืืื ืืขืืื. That's exactly what Tosafos says. ืืืื ืืืฉื ืืกืื ื meant that there is no ืืืจ, we don't say ืืืื ืืขืืื here. That could make, that could be, because it doesn't have to have the ืืืจืื of ืืืฆืื, because ืืื, we know it's a ืชืืืื of ืืืฆืื, that we did. Basically we could, I'm I'm using the words basically maybe for convenience's sake, so we put it, because you're chayav mitah, so you put it into category of ืืืฆืื, it's not a new ืืืืื. But not because it's that ืืขืฆื has to be like ืืืฆืื, so here takkeh it could be
not like ืืืฆืื. By ืืืฆืื ืืืื ืืขืืื, and here it's not ืืืื ืืขืืื. That could be the machlokes. Well, you could say that's the machlokes we can say between the Yerushalmi and the Bavli. Yeah? If you learn, that's the sevara. But what I want to say really is that there's another way to explain the machlokes between the Yerushalmi and the Bavli the way Tosafos brings. Because like I mentioned, this Yerushalmi is not written in Yerushalmi. In our Yerushalmi we don't have it. Tosafos had a girsa like that in Yerushalmi. Whatever, but we're calling it, Tosafos writes Yerushalmi. This is not the only Yerushalmi that Tosafos brings that we don't have. There are quite a few places where Tosafos says ืืืชื ืืืจืืฉืืื, and in our Yerushalmi we don't have it. Because we know Yerushalmi is missing a lot and got lost, that's why this guy had an ability to come up with a fake Yerushalmi, because we know that it's lost and and. Anyway, so I want to say there is a different way to explain based, not based, connected to what I said before in the general ืืืืืงืช between Ben Azzai and the ืืืืื whether we look at the ืืื or we look at the ืคืจื. There's another thing here. Let's get into the Rif. We all know that most Rishonim learn that the Rif paskens like Ben Azzai. What's the Rif's ra'ayah?
What, why does, where does the Rif get that he paskens like Ben Azzai? So he says, because Rabbi Yochanan in the Gemara explains that Ben Azzai is ืืืื by ืืืจืง, by throwing. If the ืืืื is not like Ben Azzai, what difference does it make? Why would Rabbi Yochanan go to tell us according to Ben Azzai is ืืืื if we don't pasken like him anyway? So the Rif learns this ra'ayah that we pasken like that we pasken like Ben Azzai, because the ืืกืงื ื Rabbi Yochanan says this because Rabbi Yochanan holds like Ben Azzai, so he tried to explain Ben Azzai's ืฉืืื. And since Rabbi Yochanan paskens like Ben Azzai, we pasken like Ben Azzai. Even though it's against the rule ืืืื ืืจืืื ืืืื ืืจืืื, usually if it's one against many we pasken like like the ืจืืื, in this case the Rif says obviously from the Gemara it's different, because the Gemara brings Rabbi Yochanan, and Rabbi Yochanan holds like Ben Azzai. Come all the Rishonim, many Rishonim: the Ran, the Rosh, Rabbeinu Yonah, they all ask a kushya on the Rif, and they say, how in the world can you say that Rabbi Yochanan holds like Ben Azai? Because he said peshat in Ben Azai? We have a clear re'aya that Rabbi Yochanan does not hold like Ben Azai! What Tosafot brings from the Rashba: Rabbi Yochanan himself is the one that said that if a person picked something up in ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื and walks around inside, and he plans just to walk around, and then he without stopping decides to walk out, and makes an ืื ืื outside, he's patur. Why? Because he never made an ืขืงืืจื for ืืืฆืื. He
made an He picked this up because he wanted to take it to another corner, that's not called an ืขืงืืจื of ืืืฆืื. But at when he tried to did go out, when he decided to go out, he didn't make an ืขืงืืจื to ืืืฆืื. But according to Ben Azai, ืืืื ืืขืืื, so he did make an ืขืงืืจื to ืืืฆืื! Because the last step, when he decided to go out and he walked out, That last step was a was a stop, even though physically he didn't stop. But every every step you take is a stop, so according to Ben Azai, he should be chayav, even if you picked it up in order to carry it around, is another ืื ืื and another ืขืงืืจื. That's what they say. That's what comes out. ืืืื ืืขืืื, what ืืืื ืืขืืื means? Every step you stopped and you started again. Starting again is an ืขืงืืจื. Why is an ืขืงืืจื? What kind of ืขืงืืจื? ืขืงืืจืช ืืืคืื. He didn't pick it up, but we learn ืขืงืืจืช ืืืคืื ืืขืงืืจืช ืืคืฅ. So that's an ืขืงืืจื. So he should be chayav, even if he didn't stop. And since Rav Yochanan says you're patur, and according to Ben Azai he should be chayav, obviously Rav Yochanan does not agree to Ben Azai. So how could the Rif say that Rav Yochanan holds like Ben Azai? No, if there's a threshold, there's no threshold, we didn't say davka, saying if it's another ืจืฉืืช in the middle, we're talking there's no other ืจืฉืืช in the middle. Regular case, ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื to ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื. So it has to be in you have to stop in the ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื. Before he walked out, there was a No, that's a ืืจืืืืช, and we're talking on a regular case, ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื to ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, you have to stop right before you go out. He did stop, because when he decided to go out, as he's walking, there's a stop there. So it's a kushya on the Rif. How could the Rif say that Rav Yochanan holds? Actually, the Rif never said it, but the way the ืืคืจืฉืื learned that that's what the Rif means, so it's a kushya on the Rif. So there is one answer to answer peshat in the Rif, and I'm not going to go through it late because we went through in the shiur, that the Rif holds like the Meiri, and the Meiri holds that the whole thing is ืืืื ืืขืืื is only because you stopped, because it's a different ืจืฉืืช, whatever, and the Rif could learn that Rav Yochanan agrees to Ben Azai. But there's another way some ืืคืจืฉืื learn. Now, the Rambam There's another way the ืืคืจืฉืื learn that the Rif learns a new peshat in Ben Azai, that when Ben Azai says ืืืื ืืขืืื, it's only ืืืื ืื ืื, not ืืืื ืขืงืืจื afterwards, which you would marvel at. That ืืืื ืืขืืื, when we say what what what what example does Ben Azai give to ืืืื ืืขืืื? You made an ืขืงืืจื in ืจืฉืืช ืืืืื, you walked through the ืืจืืืืช, and then you came to the ืจืฉืืช ืืจืืื, so he says you're ืคืืืจ. Why? Because in the middle you stopped. So, re'iyah you hold that when you continue walking, after every step you stop, and you continue, that ืืืื the next step it's also called an ืขืงืืจื. Usually, if something is a ืื ืื, something is ืืื ื, and you pick it up from there, it's an ืขืงืืจื. ืขืงืืจื is if it's ืขืืงืจ from a ืืงืื ืืื ื, that's normal. Could Ben Azai hold, and that's the Rif's new peshat in Ben Azai, that when you walk, every step you're stopping, but the next step is not called a new ืขืงืืจื? You're ืืืืื making ืื ืืืช without ืขืงืืจืืช. So, ืืคื ืื, no ืกืชืืจื to Rav Yochanan. Why did Tosafot say Tosafot say Rav Yochanan cannot hold like Ben Azai? Because according to Ben Azai, the last step you took before you walked out, you made a every step is a stop and then you started again, so you made a new ืขืงืืจื, so you have an ืขืงืืจื of ืืืฆืื, even if you didn't actually stop. But if you learn this way, it's only good ืืืื ืื ืื, and the reason would be because ืื ืื, as we learned many times before, is easier to make than ืขืงืืจื. Like the Gemara says, ืืืืื ืื ืื ืืื ืืื ืืขื, ืขืงืืจื ืืขื. What did the Gemara say? When the Gemara asked on ืืฃ ื' ืขืืื ื' that you need ื' ืขื ื' for ืขืงืืจื and ืื ืื, the Gemara proved it from Rabbi Akiva, and the Gemara said you only have a proof that ืื ืื doesn't need ื' ืขื ื', maybe ืขืงืืจื does. And we said why? Because to make an ืขืงืืจื is always harder. ืื ืื is taking from something that's not to yes, whatever it is, sevara we gave. So, maybe what Ben Azzai says is ืืืื ืืขืืื is enough called ืขืืื for ืื ืื, but not enough for making ืขืงืืจื. It's not called an ืขืงืืจื, no. It's not enough stopping. Like I said, so it's like many ืื ืืืช without ืขืงืืจืืช. The first ืขืงืืจื you made, but later on you could make a ืื ืื, but you can't make an ืขืงืืจื, it doesn't make an ืขืงืืจื. ืื? No, a ืื ืื for the first ืขืงืืจื. There was an ืขืงืืจื in the beginning, and each time there's a new ืื ืื. It's a strange thing, but that's what you can say. And if you learn like that, Ben Azzai and Rav Yochanan don't don't contradict. And that's how the Rif learns. Okay. If you learn that's how the Rif learns, so it comes out, the bottom line,
that there are three opinions. There's the opinion of Ben Azzai, the way most Rishonim learn, that what? ืืืื ืืขืืื ืืืฉ. Right? ืืืื ืขืงืืจื, ืืืื ืื ืื, ืืืฉ. Then we have the ืจืื ื, who according to everybody holds what? No ืืืื ืืขืืื, in no situation, opposite. extreme. And then you have the Rif ืคืฉื in Ben Azzai that what? That ืืืื ืืขืืื is not full, is not 100%. We only say ืืืื ืืขืืื a a bissel. We only say ืืืื ืืขืืื ืืืื finishing off something, but not ืืืื starting. That's what comes out. So, we have three things. Okay, yeah? Okay. Basically, we have three things here in what? In ืืืื ืืขืืื. Should have expected it. Just like ืงืืืื ืืื ืฉืืื ืื, you have ืืืื ืืขืืื. Every time you're going to have in Shas ืืขืืื, you'll always have this, at least in maaseh. And as we said that when it comes to these things of this is ื- something else, there is always two main things, and there's a third, really. Like by ืฉืืืืืช, you have the one on one side that it's ืืืฉ, the other hand that it's ืืืฉ not, and then you have the middle one where it's a little bit and therefore to a certain degree yeah and to a certain degree not. That's always by the things. And we have that in the ืืจืื ืืงืืืืช, actually, to the different places. The ืฉืืืืช that I wrote down are all in this inyan, trying to bring this nekudah that you have these three things in different places. But since it's late, I won't go through all the places, especially I mentioned them many times. I just want to bring one more thing which I didn't mention in all the times, and that is that you have to say legabei another inyan, and I'll say it ืืืฉ ืืงืืฆืืจ, hopefully you'll understand it. We know by
ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ, ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ, Rabbi Yochanan says is ืืกืืจ ืื ืืชืืจื. Reish Lakish says ืืืชืจ ืื ืืชืืจื. We know that the Rogatchover learns that the pshat is, it's a ืจืืื that since ืืื ืืืฆืืจืืคื, since this is part of a shiur, and if you'd have the whole thing it would be ืืกืืจ, it's ืืฆื has the same ืืืืืช. And Reish Lakish argues. The ืคืืดื, they learn different, that what a pshat by ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ, why is it ืืกืืจ, ืืื ืืืฆืืจืืคื, it's like a ืืืืจื. The Torah said that if we're going to allow you a half a shiur, you might come and finish it off. That's one thing. So one she'eilah in ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ. Then you have a that, and the Rebbe explains this in ืืืง ืืณ. ืืืง ืืณ says the Rebbe says something that seems to contradict. The Rebbe goes according to the first pshat, like the Rogatchover says, that it's not the pshat it's a technical thing, farkert, the fact is that it's ืืฆื ืฉ- that the whole shiur is ืืกืืจ is a ืจืืื that half a shiur is also ืืกืืจ, because it's half of the whole has the whole ืืืืืช. The Rebbe there has another ืืงืืจื by ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ: is ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ a ืืืกืืจ in every ืคืจื, in every ืืื, or is it a ืืืืืณืืืงืข ืืืกืืจ? If someone eats ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ ืืืืจ, did he ืขืืืจ with a, and it's ืืกืืจ ืืืืืจืืืชื according to Rabbi Yochanan, is he ืขืืืจ the ืืืกืืจ ืืืืจ? Which ืืืกืืจ ืืืืจ? ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ of ืืืืจ. He eats ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ of ืืืฅ, he is ืขืืืจ the ืืืกืืจ ืืืฅ ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ, or it's a ืืืกืืจ ืืืื? There's a general in the Torah, a general ืืื that you can't eat ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ of a ืืืกืืจ. Just like we have the shaila about ืืคื ื ืขืืจ, and that we went through more than once at the beginning of the masechta. If you're ืขืืืจ you're ืืืฉืื somebody to ืขืืืจ on a ืืืกืืจ ืฉืืช, is this part of ืืืกืืจ ืฉืืช or there's a special ืืื ืืืื of ืืคื ื ืขืืจ ืื ืชืชื ืืืฉืื? Same thing here. What I don't understand, how do these two ืืงืืจืืช fit? If we're learning that ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ is ืืกืืจ why? Because it has the ืืืืืช of the ืืืกืืจ, so how could you say it's a ืืืกืืจ ืืืื? How could it say it's a ืืืกืืจ ืืืื? Then it's a ืืืื a ืืืกืืจ ืคืจืื. If the reason why ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ ืืืืจ is ืืฆื is ืืกืืจ, because it has the ืืืืืช of ืืืืจ, then it's obviously a ืืืกืืจ ืคืจืื! How could you say? Mila according to the other shita you could ask a shaila. Other shita which says it's only like a gezeira, so what does it mean? Is it a ืืืกืืจ ืืืื or ืคืจืื? But the Rogatchover, the Rebbe brings both from the Rogatchover, and the Rebbe himself has both chakirot. So, on one side, yes, says clearly
that it's not it's ืืืืืช has a whole full ืืืืืช. And on the other side he says maybe it's a ืืืกืืจ ืืืื. How could that be? So, I just want to say there are three inyanim in every issur. Every issur has a ื ืงืืื that it's asur. Then you have the idea that it has ืคืจืืื of what kind of issur. Just like in every mitzvah you have a ืืจืื ืืชื ืืณ ืืืงืื ื ืืื ืืขืืื ืืฉืจ ืงืืฉื ื ืืืฆืืชืื ืืฆืื ื, there's a general thing it's a mitzvah. Then you have which mitzvah. You have a general thing it's asur, what does asur mean? Against the ืจืฆืื of the Eibershter. Then you have a ืคืจื. And then you have the ืขืื ืฉ that you're going to get. Now, the three inyanim that you said, that's the shaila here. If you learn that ืืฆื ืฉืืขืืจ is mamash the same as the issur, it has the ืืืืืช of issur and the ืืืืืช of the ืคืจื, that's the shaila if maybe it's a ืืืกืืจ ืคืจืื. You could say it's the other extreme, it's not part of the issur at all, so it's only merely a gezeira, that's like the ืคืืดื learns. Then you could learn there's a middle way, that it's part of the issur, but not part of the whole issur, it's part only of the ืืืืืชืณืืืงืข part of the issur. So you could learn it has the ืืืืืช of issur, but what ืืืืืช? Not the ืืืืืช of chazir, the ืืืืืช of what chazir has in the ื ืงืืื of issur against, against the aibershter. Okay, like I said, I'm going to say it in short. So, going back here, we could come back to the three opinions that we have here, which is the way the Rif learns pshat in Ben Azzai, and the way everyone learns Ben Azzai, and the Rabbanan, it's like this: when we say ืืืื ืืขืืื, if you learn that we follow, the way we said before, that we follow the ืคืจืืื, that we follow, pashut, we look at not the ืืื of walking, but we follow the ืคืจืืื, so ืืืื ืืขืืื means ืืขืืื ืืืฉ. And if it's ืืขืืื ืืืฉ, what should be the din according to Ben Azzai? Should be patur. Patur, completely! And this goes in every case. It's patur, because ืืืื ืืขืืื is real ืขืืื, and if it's real ืขืืื, it's whether for ืขืงืืจื, for ืื ืื, for everything. If you hold that you look at the ืืื and do not look at the ืคืจืืื at all, so then that's like the Rabbanan hold. We don't say ืืืื ืืขืืื in any case. Then you could say that ืืขืืื is like a middle ืืจืื. And as a middle ืืจืื, it's not really ืืขืืื. So when it's only to finish off a melacha, like the inyan of ืื ืื, there we would say ืืืื ืืขืืื. But since it's not ืืืฉ ืขืืื, it only works in a certain area where it's not so hard to accomplish it. And therefore, that would be the shita of the Rif. What does the Rif hold according to those mefarshim I said before? He holds that Ben Azzai, we pask like Ben Azzai, but when did Ben Azzai say his din? Only ืื ืืืข ืื ืื, not ืขืงืืจื, where it's easier. Why? That fits if it's not ืืขืืื ืโ if it's ืืขืืื ืืืฉ, you don't make chilukim. You don't make chilukim because it's not ืืขืืื ืืืฉ. But what what does this all follow? When can you say ืืขืืื ืืืฉ? If we said that we're looking at the pratim. And we said a prat is takeh standing. So you could say ืืขืืื ืืืฉ. That's the way the Rishonim learn in Ben Azzai. And then the Rif learns Ben Azzai it's a middle ืืจืื. And the and the Rabbanan, they learn the other extreme.
