Kelutah, the Floor of Reshus Harabim, and Why Akirah Needs More Than Hanacha

Part of Shabbos (Iyun) · 53:37

Working through the Ramban's view that kelutah kemi shehunchah only works because the airspace up to ten tefachim is treated as an extension of the ground, illustrated by the Rebbe's reading of the Beis Hamikdash's outer wall in the Rambam. Returns to the Gemara's question of whether akirah, like hanacha, can manage without a daled-al-daled makom, weighing sevaros from the Maharal and the Rashba.

Recap: Tosafos' conclusion that kelutah contradicts yelafinan zoreik mimoshit

In Tosafot, he went ืœืžืกืงื ื ื“ืืžืจื™ื ืŸ ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. Okay, genug genug. ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช ื‘ืžืกืงื ื ื“ืืžืจื™ื ืŸ, so Tosafot in the second tirutz nu, the second tirutz Tosafot said that ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” is a setirah to ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜. If you hold ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, that means if you throw it from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ going through ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“, you're ื—ื™ื™ื‘. Just like ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜ from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ going over ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“ you're ื—ื™ื™ื‘, so ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, you're also ื—ื™ื™ื‘ if you throw it. But then you can't hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. Why not? Because if you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, that means when it was flying over it has ื”ื ื—ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, so you can't be ื—ื™ื™ื‘. So obviously you do not hold, if you say ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, you cannot hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. Tosafot Yeshanim, as we spoke about Tuesday in the shiur klali, holds that it's not you don't say it there. But then there's the Ramban, the Ramban which I mentioned also, which the Ramban says that ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“ we do not say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. And it seems from Rashi like that also. Rashi doesn't say it clearly, but Rashi says that ืืคื™ืœื• ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœื™ืช, there is no ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“. So we spoke about it, let's speak about it from a different angle a little bit. Bepashtut, the machloket between the Ramban and Tosafotโ€”again You going to the shiur? Yeah. Oh, good, good. The Ramban and Tosafos argue, the Tosafos holds ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“ we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, it's possible we can't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, no, the Ramban says we cannot say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“, and Tosafos says that we can. So, if you look in the lashon of the Ramban, the lashon of the Ramban is why don't we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“? Because it's a separate ืจืฉื•ืช. That's the lashon he uses. ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“ is a separate ืจืฉื•ืช, and it's not connected to the ground. That's the word he uses. And it's not connected to the ground. That's the reason why? Which, that's why we cannot say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” there.

The Ramban's pshat: kelutah only works because ten tefachim is connected to the ground

So I want to explain what what b'pashtut it means. The Ramban seems to be learning ืงืœื•ื˜ื” means when something is flying, why do we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”? Because we consider it as if it's laying on the ground. And if it would come on the ground, we'd be laying on the ground, so anything that's, let's call it ืจื•ืื” ืคื ื™ ื”ืงืจืงืข, if it looks and it sees the ground, that's why we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. Therefore, if it's higher than ื™ื•ืดื“, higher than ื™ื•ืดื“ is not connected to the ground, because the connection to the ground is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, this is not, so there is no ื“ื™ืŸ ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. In other words, he holds not that ืงืœื•ื˜ื” in a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ is patur, like Tosafos would say, there's no ืงืœื•ื˜ื”! Because the whole ืžื•ืฉื’ of ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, he has a new pshat. It's not the two pshatim which I said in ืงืœื•ื˜ื” in that ืฉื™ืขื•ืจ ื›ืœืœื™. Comes out that it's connected to because ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, why do we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”? Because it's atop of the ground. Over there it's not on top of the ground. Because it sees the ground? Because it's on top of the ground, which it sees, it's facing the ground, therefore it's as if it's there. But that's only in an area which is connected to the ground. What area is connected to the ground? Till ื™ื•ืดื“ ื˜ืคื—ื™ื. ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“ ื˜ืคื—ื™ื, not. Lefi zeh, what does Tosafos learn? Tosafos ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is not because it's connected to the ground. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is a din in itself, that when it's flying in the air, whichever explanation we'll give, it's flying in the air, it's ื›ืื™ืœื• it's ื ืงืœื˜, ื›ืื™ืœื• it's grabbed there and stopped. Not because of the ground. If that's the reason, so what difference does it make if it's in ื™', ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™'? If the logic, whatever the logic shall be, but if it's flying, we look at it as if it stopped. So here, it stopped in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, if it's ืœืžื˜ื” ืžื™'. If it's ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™', it stopped in ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, but it stopped. That's how it seems the peshat. But does it always stop? Yeah, it's that's - it's called a stop. That's like ืคืฉื˜, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื‘ืื•ื•ื™ืจ, going through the air is as if it stopped there. So wherever you do it, you - wherever it went, it stopped. If it's ืœืžื˜ื” ืžื™', it's ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, if it's ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' it's ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, but it stopped. While the Ramban learns it has to do with the ืงืจืงืข. And I want to explain a little bit the omek of what this means. There is a she'eilah or ื—ืงื™ืจื” ื•ื•ืืก you could ืงืœืขืจ. When we talk about ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื and ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ืขื•ืœื” ืขื“ ื™', ืขื“ ืขืฉืจื”, what is the peshat here? It sounds a little bit, you know, it's all the same. Is the peshat the ground is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? This is the ืื•ื•ื™ืจ ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? And we constantly Rashi uses the ืœืฉื•ืŸ a lot of times that till ื™' is ืื•ื•ื™ืจ ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, is the air of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. So you can say like this: be'emet the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is the floor. Anything till here is the ืื•ื•ื™ืจ on top of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. But ืื•ื•ื™ืจ on top of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is like ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. Or you could say the ืื•ื•ื™ืจ is this - this is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is this ืื•ื•ื™ืจ. This is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. According to the first way that the ืื•ื•ื™ืจ is this is ืื•ื•ื™ืจ ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื but the bottom - the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื really is the ืงืจืงืข. You have a floor outside which ever what and it has the qualifications of a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, that it's 16 amah wide, whatever the quick qualifications are. The floor is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. Anything laying on the floor is laying on top of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. And that din of this avir is also on top of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื so it has a din of the same ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. According to the second way, lechatchilah, this is ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. The floor is not the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. But when something lays on the floor, why are you chayav? Because it's sticking out from the floor, so it's in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. So it comes out like this: to say the pshat of kelutah according to this.

Is the ten-tefachim airspace its own reshus harabim, or an extension of the floor (lavud)

According to the first way that the - according to the first way that the ikar is the karka, it would seem that when we say till ten is ืื•ื•ื™ืจ ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, it's similar to the din of lavud. What does lavud mean? Lavud is anything that's within three tefachim of the ground. It's as if it's laying on the ground. That's the din. Where do we take the din lavud? Where - where do we have the idea, where do we - with the egg? Halachah leMoshe miSinai, exactly. It doesn't - no pasuk. We know ื›ืœ ื”ืฉื™ืขื•ืจื™ื, all the shiurim of kezayit and kebeitzah and revi'it and lavud and all these dinim are all halachah leMoshe miSinai. So the fact that anything within three tefachim is called laying, halachah leMoshe miSinai. Similar to that is a din of up to ten tefachim. That up to ten tefachim is like lavud. So just like if something would be laying within three tefachim, Tosafot in ืื™ืœืŸ talks about it, Gemara later, it's as if it's laying on the floor. Why? That's the din of lavud, that within three tefachim is considered as if it's there. Mashal by a Sukkah where he said if you have lavud, two pieces, and with - there is less than three tefachim in between, what's the din? It's considered as it's closed. That's what they say a story that once a guy made a Sukkah, a ืœืžื“ื™ืฉืข ืกื•ื›ื”, full of holes, but it was kasher because it was always less than three, and he went to sleep in the Sukkah at night, he put on his watch and at night a ganav came and stole his watch, stuck his hand in and stole his watch. The ganav was an am ha'aretz. He didn't know the din of lavud. Had he known that it's lavud, he how could he - he wouldn't have stuck his hand in because it's really closed. But that's the din, that there's a din of lavud. So anything as there is closed. Anything that's next to the floor three tefachim is the floor. So there's a new din that anything within ten tefachim is like the floor. That's the teitch of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” according to this peshat, that ืงืœื•ื˜ื” means that it's connected to the floor just that the whole metziut of the ten amah - ten tefachim is - it's ten tefachim of the floor. The other way that we say that it's not because of the floor. The floor is nothing. What's the What's the reshut harabim? 10 tefachim, the ืื•ื™ืจ, that is the reshut harabim. So here you can't say the reason why if it's coming in the middle of the air is because of the floor. Is because of the floor? Because it's on the floor? No, because it's within 10 tefachim, which is within reshut harabim. Now, the difference between the two ways would be according to the first way, if it's on top of the 10, can we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” or not? No. No, because the whole idea of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is that 10 tefachim of the ground is like it's the ground. On top of 10 tefachim, is not the ground. And the whole metziut of ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, like a person says like this, you know, within lavud, within three tefachim, it's lavud, so four tefachim should also be lavud, makes sense? The whole din of lavud is three ื˜ืคื—ื™ื, that's all. The whole din din that this is on top of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, that means that this is connected to the ground is up to 10, higher than 10, it's not connected. So why in the world how in the world can you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”? But if you say the second way, that it's because it's flying in the air, the air itself, and it's not laying on the ground, the air is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, but it didn't stop in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. Mimela the other way you say because it's close to the ground, it's as if it laid down. But here we don't say that. The second way, pashut, 10 ื˜ืคื—ื™ื is ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, and it flew through the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. Why do we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”? Because we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. So what's the difference if it goes through there, or it goes on top? The difference is this is ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, so it stopped in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. This is ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, it stopped in a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. But you cannot say, this is the machloket between the Ramban and Tosafot. The Ramban says the whole din of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is connected to the ground. Why is it connected to the ground? Because the whole din of the 10 10 ื˜ืคื—ื™ื ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is the ground. The whole thing, there is no such thing as this is a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. The ground is a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. This is not a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. This is ืื•ื™ืจ ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. It's the ืื•ื™ืจ on top of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, and anything that's on top of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is connected to the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. So we can't make up our own ื“ื™ื ื™ื, it's only 10 ื˜ืคื—ื™ื. But the second way we're saying it's not this is the ืื•ื™ืจ. This is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, so the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is ืื•ื™ืจ, has nothing to do with the ground. So here it's flying through the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, here it's flying through a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. So they're both the same. Here you're patur, here you're chayav. But the idea of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is, yes? So then when is there ever ืงืœื•ื˜ื” according to according to the opinion when it's flying through, I'm saying why do we have to say the words ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” when it's flying through a according to the opinion that holds that the whole space is is ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? So what do you forget ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, the second it's passing through, that's it. That's that's the teitch of ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. I'm saying you don't have to stay You're you're you're saying it so good. That's what he means. According to this peshat, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” means this you don't even have to come into the ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, but it's just on technicality that when it goes through there, it's as if it stopped because this whole this is ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. Okay, so according to the Ramban, you hold that According to the Ramban, he says at the bottom, the floor is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. And therefore, and 10 tefachim is connected to the floor. Higher than 10 tefachim is not connected to the floor. Then you say it's ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. It's a makom, that's teitch ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. And therefore there's no ืงืœื•ื˜ื” there, because the whole metziut of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is because it's coming to something that's connected to the ground. Mah she'ein ken the second way, it's not like that. Which seems to lead you to another nekudah here, to another nekudah, which is gonna, I know it's gonna be like more confusing, so it's not even kedai to Okay, let's stop this. No, it'll be a whole arichut, whatever, look at the sichot, but it's gonna be geshmak. Very geshmak. So let's do it! But it's gonna take away and we're never gonna get ื›ืื˜ืฉ ื”ื™ื™ื ื˜ ืคืืจื˜ื™ืง, whatever you call it. I'll just say the words bekitzur. When we have the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ on top of the 10 tefachim, is this ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ considered, why is it a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ? Because it's on top of the 10. The 10 is, what's the problem? On top of the 10, not. Or is it a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ because it's too far from the floor? Oh, that doesn't have the koach. No, too far from the floor is not a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. That's the So that's connected to what I said before. So again, so basically like this, we have a floor, we have three things here. We have a floor, we have 10 tefachim, and then we have on top of 10 tefachim. This top of 10 tefachim, do we look at it that the reason why it's a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ because it's too far from the floor? Yeah, 10 tefachim of the floor is close to the floor, that's a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. If it's too far from the floor Is the rule that No, in this case, that's the din. The din is that because it's too far from the floor, it's ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. Or you say no, it's not because it's too far from the floor, because it's on top of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. It's over it's outside of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. If you say the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is the floor Right, and it's too So this is 10, 10 of the floor is ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, this is too far from the floor. According to the other way, a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is this, it could be a hair away, so then why, it's a hair away, but that's the thing, it's outside of the gevul of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. Where do I get such an idea that you could look at this third part, again, three parts: the floor, 10, higher than 10, that you look at this, is this on top of the 10, or is this on top of the floor, but too far? That's what Where do I get this from? Just to be Bekitzur. Look at the Sichot,

The Rebbe's dikduk in the Rambam: the Beis Hamikdash's outer wall as a parallel for 'close but removed'

I remember the Rebbe said this by a Farbrengen, it's a ื”ืขืจื” in Likutei Sichot, but the Rebbe said it. He said a ืœืฉื•ืŸ in Rambam, which is not ื ื•ื’ืข ืฉื‘ืช, ื ื•ื’ืข ื‘ื™ืช ื”ืžืงื“ืฉ, but a very interesting ืœืฉื•ืŸ. Listen to this. Places became empty. There's just more chairs today. More, no, no, but the Gemarot are still there. So anyway, let's We have in the Beit Hamikdash, we all learn Rambam, we all learn Hilchot Beit Habechirah, especially in the three weeks, so we all know the structure of the Beit Hamikdash. How was the structure of the Beit Hamikdash? You had the building, right, this is the building. Around the building, this is the ืขื–ืจื”, right? What was in the building? Not to spend time on the Beit Hamikdash, but it's good to know anyway. What was in the building? What? Three compartments. It was a building. There was first was the front was the ืื•ืœื, ื”ื™ื›ืœ, ืงื“ืฉ ืงื“ืฉื™ื. What was here in front? It's called ืขื–ืจื”. So here you had ืขื–ืจืช ื›ื”ื ื™ื and ืขื–ืจืช ื™ืฉืจืืœ, the big, big, here you had ืขื–ืจืช ื ืฉื™ื, right. What was around here? How was ืขื–ืจืช ื ืฉื™ื, was it? No, first was ืขื–ืจื”, this is all the way, no, this was towards the end, and this this part had different This is the ืขื–ืจื”. The ืžื–ื‘ื— was right here outside. What was around here? A wall, a wall. Let me ask you: if I ask you, when you describe the Beit Hamikdash, how would you write, say it? You have in middle you have the ื”ื™ื›ืœ, or the whole the the the building, around the building you have the ืขื–ืจื”, then you have a wall around How would you say it? A wall around the ืขื–ืจื”. You have the building, you have the ืขื–ืจื”, then you have a wall around the ืขื–ืจื”. So the Rebbe was medayek in Rambam, the Rambam says a very strange thing: You have the building, then you have the ืขื–ืจื”, and then you have a wall around the building, but far away. The building is already a building. No, no, but you have this So the the Rambam considers this wall not a wall around the building, around the ืขื–ืจื”, it's a wall around the building, removed. That's what the ืขื–ืจื” is there for, it's just because it happens to be that there's space in between the building. No, ืขื–ืจื” had the ืžื–ื‘ื—, the ืขื–ืจื” had a function, it's not a ื—ืฆืจ. Like I said, normally when you would explain this, you would say you have the building, you have the ืขื–ืจื” around the building, and then you have the wall around the ืขื–ืจื”. That's what you say, no? You have the the building here, you have the playground or whatever, you have the the yard, and around the yard you have a fence. That's, you ever say, a ืžืื“ื ืข ื–ืืš, you have the building, you have a yard, and around the building you have a fence 100 feet away. It's cause we leave the doors open. I'm saying, not not just saying, it's like the same thing, because those those gates are only there because we're leaving this door open. If those doors were locked, why? B'foal we have a fence around the yard, that's what it is. Anyway, the Rebbe was ืžื“ื™ื™ืง, and the Rebbe said that the Rambam is trying to tell us that the fence around is not a is not a ื’ื“ืจ of the ืขื–ืจื”, not around the ืขื–ืจื”, it's around the building, ela mai, removed. What nafka mina? ื—ื™ืœื•ืง how you call it? That's the nafka mina, cause you're not If a person donates money to one part of the ื‘ื™ืช ื”ืžืงื“ืฉ, you can't change it. If he donates for the ื”ื™ื›ืœ, you can't use it for the ืขื–ืจื”. Now if a person donates money for the ื”ื™ื›ืœ, can he use it for this wall? Yeah. So if you Rambam would write normal that this is a wall around the ืขื–ืจื”, and if you donated money to the ื”ื™ื›ืœ, you can't use it for this wall. But now that Rambam says this part of the Heichal, ela mai, it's removed from the ื”ื™ื›ืœ. Fine, so what we see from here, the Rebbe is ืžื—ื“ืฉ ืขืคืขืก ื ื ื™ื™ืข ืขื ื™ืŸ here that you could have three parts here. It's exactly like we have here. You have Did the Rebbe say that it's the same, the Rebbe said that it would work here too, or? No, no, no, if the Rebbe would say it, it would be good, I'd be happy, cause then it's No, I'm saying it, I'm saying based on that, that we see over there, you have three parts: you have the building, you have the part, the the area around the building, then you have an area around that. So there are two ways. Pashut pshat, the way you look at it ื›ืคืฉื•ื˜ื™ื”, that it's part, it's around this, around around the ืขื–ืจื”, and the Rambam, the way the Rebbe is ืžื“ื™ื™ืง, learns that it could be far away, it's still considered around this far away. So I'm using the same idea ื‘ื ื•ื’ืข here. You have the same three things here: you have the ืงืจืงืข, you have the ื™' ื˜ืคื—ื™ื, and on top. Is this on top considered like you would say ื›ืคืฉื•ื˜ื• here that the ืขื–ืจโ€” that the wall is next to the ืขื–ืจื”, so the same thing here, the top is next to what? Next to the ื™ืณ ื˜ืคื—ื™ื, the higher than ื™ืณ ื˜ืคื—ื™ื, the area is next to ื™ืณ ื˜ืคื—ื™ื. Or you could say, the way the Rebbe says over there, that the third thing is around this, ela mai it's far. The same thing here, the higher than ten ื˜ืคื—ื™ื is around the floor, but it's too far from the floor. So according to one way, it's connected, like we had before, it's connected to the it's higher than the ten tefachโ€” higher than the reshus harabim. But if you learn that the ikar is the ืงืจืงืข, so you have two things, both of them are are just like here, the ืขื–ืจื” is around the building and the wall is around the building. Here too, the ืงืจืงืข is the bottom, around that ืงืจืงืข, on top of that ืงืจืงืข, you have two things: you have ten tefachim and then you have higher than that, it's also around the ืงืจืงืข, but too far. So, it seems like Rambam holds like Ramban. I'm not saying if you hold it over there, you have to hold over here. I'm just saying the dugma, the the same logic you have over there you have here. It doesn't mean that's that's the way one there you have to hold it like that, but it fits. The logic that he says there fits there to the Ramban. Okay, let's go weiter. Huh? What about the other logic? Is the way you'll learn without, the pshat pshat. Pshat you say reshus harabim is until here and all of a sudden reshus harabim stops? Yeah. Exactly. That didn't seem like, it would seem like reshus harabim is placed down here, suddenly it's floating around. Why, I don't know. Maybe that's This is reshus harabim is the avir. This is a reshus, the whole this is a reshus. I mean, I could say it either way. Okay, let's go weiter. Huh? The Ramban holds that the ikar is the floor. Right. That the ikar is the floor, that's reshus harabim. And then you have on top of the floor, and then this is on top of, also on top of the floor, but too far. But if it's too far from the floor, you can't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, because the whole idea of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is because it's close to the floor. Lavud is three tefachim to the floor, then there is a din of ten tefachim to the floor, and then on top of that, you're too far from the floor. So there is no ื“ื™ืŸ ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, because the whole ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is depends on the floor, the Ramban says. Where do we get this ื—ืœืœ? Probably it's a halachah l'Moshe miSinai also. This whole idea of ten tefachim is it's probably an halachah l'Moshe miSinai. Like, the ืœืฉื•ืŸ in the Gemara is this, ื›ืœ ื”ืฉื™ืขื•ืจื™ื... What's the end of that statement? Halachah l'Moshe miSinai. Anything that's a shiur, whether it's ten tefachim, or whatever it is. Okay, let's go weiter. Could Moshe get so far away from Sinai? Moshe was on Sinai itself. Gemara says, ืžืขื•ืœื ืœื ื™ืจื“ื” ืฉื›ื™ื ื” ืœืžื˜ื” ืžืขืฉืจื” ื˜ืคื—ื™ื. Okay, let's go weiter.

Returning to akirah and hanacha: does Rabbi Akiva's kelutah prove akirah also needs daled al daled

The Gemara weiter, after the Gemara brings Rabbi Akiva, Rabbah said that the Mishnah that says you don't need ื“ืณ ืขืœ ื“ืณ goes according to Rabbi Akiva who holds ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, the Gemara asks, ื•ื“ื™ืœืžื ื”ื ื—ื” ื“ืœื ื‘ืขื™ ืขืงื™ืจื” ื‘ืขื™? From Rabbi Akiva we only see that you don't need hanacha on ื“ืณ. But akirah we still don't know. And memeila, you can't bring a raayah from Rabbi Akiva to our Mishnah, because our Mishnah says that hanacha and the akirah don't need ื“ืณ ืขืœ ื“ืณ, both of them are at hand. What made the Gemara feel that that only hanacha doesn't need and akirah needs? What does Rashi say? Because if akirah would also not need ื“ืณ ืขืœ ื“ืณ, what would be the din? You'd be chayav two! You'd be chayav one for hotzaah, and one for hachnasah. Comes Tosafos and Tosafos asks a kashya on Rashi: Your whole raayah you have that hanacha is different, akirah might need, is the fact that you're not chayav two? Maybe there's a different reason why you're not chayav two. Because you can't be chayav for... ืื‘ ื•ืชื•ืœื“ื”, ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘ you can't be chayav, that's why! So you can't be chayav for hotzaah, and then chayav for hachnasah also. Okay. That's Tosafos's kashya on Rashi. Therefore, Tosafos changes. Comes the Tosafos Yeshanim, and Tosafos Yeshanim says that doesn't see Tosafos's kashya as such a strong kashya on Rashi. Very small words, very few words: ืื™ื–ื” ืงื•ืฉื™ื ื›ืœ ื›ืš? Tosafos's kashya is not such a strong kashya. Why not? ื“ื”ืœื ืœื ืงืืžืจ, ื•ื”ืขืงื™ืจื” ื•ื“ืื™ ื‘ืขื™, ืืœื ื“ื™ืœืžื ืงืืžืจ. These are the few words that the Tosafos Yeshanim uses. The Gemara didn't say for sure that there is a chiluk between akirah and hanachah. The Gemara just says, maybe. That's that's the Tosafos Yeshanim words. Now who can tell me peshat in Tosafos Yeshanim? Because, it's not sure. No. So, of not, yeah good, peirush. U'meimeila, you're right you just said Tosafos Yeshanim's words. It's more mistaber to say that that he... More mistaber? No, not more mistaber, it's possible... U'meimeila, what's the problem? You're saying right, but I just want to hear concrete, bring it down l'maaseh. What were we supposed to say? What is he supposed to say? I'll tell you. What are you looking for? Since it says only dilma, u'meimeila, peirush, no, you got a ืคื™ืจื•ืฉ ื“ืขืจ ื’ืื•ืŸ, a peirush what what he's asking on Tosafos. Maybe and therefore Why not? So why are they fighting over it if it's a dilma? U'meimeila You can't say medayek from No, you're saying that's I want to say everyone is saying right. I just want to I want to u'meimeila, maybe since it's a maybe, since it's not vadai So why are you trying to prove that it's vadai, that it's achat, that it's shtayim shehein achat? Don't worry about it, it's okay. Fine, we give up. A question could be a maybe. Yeah, what do you mean by that? Even if it's a maybe, it's a question. Tosafos says that Tosafos says that you know why you're not chayav two? Maybe for a different reason. Not because ืขืงื™ืจื” needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. Maybe because ืื™ืŸ ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืขืœ ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘. You're right, yeah, so teirutz Saying that it could be, you could say a question like that. And everyone else is saying the same thing. Right. Okay, I'll teitsh es, I'll show you what I mean, and then you'll see what I then you'll know what I wanted you to say. Hear? Then you'll find out. And you'll see basically what I'm going to say, you all said. But you have to have the the the expression to explain it. The Gemara says from Rabbi Akiva is no re'aya that ืขืงื™ืจื” doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. When you say no re'aya, doesn't mean that we know for sure. Maybe yeah, maybe not. What does a re'aya mean? A re'aya is a proof. A proof means that there is no other way. If you have maybe the peshat is like this, maybe it's from here it's chayav because of this, maybe not, so I can't prove it to you. Maybe yeah, maybe not. All the Gemara says, you tried to prove to me that Rabbi Akiva holds that you don't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. So the Gemara is saying it's not a proof. We see that Rabbi Akiva says you're chayav one, not two. If you're chayav only one, let's think, why are you not chayav two? Maybe you're not chayav two because ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘ you're not chayav. Maybe you're not chayav two because ืขืงื™ืจื” needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. So the bottom line is that there is no proof that he holds that ืขืงื™ืจื” needs doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. If there is only one way to explain why you're not chayav two, let's say if there would be only one way to explain why aren't you chayav two, because you cannot be chayav for this for ืขืงื™ืจื” because because ืขืงื™ืจื” needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“', and there is no other way to explain why you're not chayav two, then we see clearly that Rabbi Akiva holds ืขืงื™ืจื” needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“', right? Because that's the only way you could say. If akirah doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', why aren't you ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ื”ื•ืฆืื” ื•ื”ื›ื ืกื”? The fact that you're not chayav two shows that akirah needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“', that's why you're not chayav for the second one. The moment you have two ways to learn, so we have no re'ayah. So the moment we have no re'ayah, so maybe, maybe the reason is because akirah, maybe not. So we takeh don't have a proof that Rabbi Akiva holds akirah needs ื“' ืขืœ doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', but we have no proof either way. So what the Gemara asks ื•ื“ื™ืœืžื, maybe the reason why he's not chayav two, maybe the reason he's not chayav two is because akirah needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. So what is Tosafos asking? Maybe not. You're right, maybe not, but maybe yeah. At least we have no re'ayah. That's what Tosafos Yeshanim is saying to Tosafos. What's your problem? Maybe the reason you're saying why you're not chayav two is not because of this, it's not because akirah needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“' and you don't have it, maybe the reason is because you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ื‘ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘. Right, maybe, maybe not. But there is still a maybe that akirah, maybe the reason is because maybe the reason is because akirah needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. So do we have a re'ayah that Rabbi Akiva holds akirah doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'? No. And that's the Gemara's ืงืฉื™ื. The Gemara is saying we asked a shaila, we know you need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. You want to tell me there is an opinion that says you don't? Which opinion did you show me? Rabbi Akiva. So Rabbi Akiva, we know for sure ื”ื ื—ื” doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', that's for sure. Because he says ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” doesn't need, that's for sure. The other one we don't know. Since he says you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘ for two, maybe ืขืงื™ืจื” needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“' and that's That's why. You're telling me maybe not, maybe not. But we need a proof. The Gemara says, in order to answer why you don't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', we have to find a ืžืืŸ ื“ืืžืจ who says that ืขืงื™ืจื” doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. We didn't find it. So he's saying to Tosafos, I don't understand what your problem is. You're telling me maybe the reason is because you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘? You're right, I agree with you, maybe. But maybe not! It's only and the Gemara's ืงืฉื™ื is ื“ื™ืœืžื, the Gemara's ืงืฉื™ื is you have no proof. And what does proof mean? ื•ื“ืื™. You have no proof ื•ื“ืื™ that Rabbi Akiva holds ืขืงื™ืจื” does not need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. I have no proof the other way either. See, if we would say we have proof that he holds ืขืงื™ืจื” doesn't need, then Tosafos is right. You have proof that ืขืงื™ืจื” needs doesn't need needs ื“' ืขืœ ื“'? That it needs ื“'? We don't have proof. Maybe and you're saying that that's the reason you're ืคื˜ื•ืจ? There's no proof. Maybe you're ืคื˜ื•ืจ because ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘ you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘. But we're not looking for a proof that ืขืงื™ืจื” doesn't need, we're just saying you have no proof that ืขืงื™ืจื” doesn't need, we don't know! So that's what he says to Tosafos. He says ืื™ื–ื” ืงื•ืฉื™ื. Farkert, what I have a problem now is why is it ืื™ื–ื” ืงื•ืฉื™ื ื›ืœ ื›ืš? It's not a kashya at all! Tosafos' kashya is no kashya. The Gemara, all the Gemara wanted to say, you have no proof that Rabbi Akiva holds that ืขืงื™ืจื” doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. ื”ื ื—ื” we know for sure he holds. No, we don't know. We're not sure if he holds. Rabbi holds, we're not sure what Rabbi Akiva holds. Maybe! So maybe Rabbi maybe Rabbi Akiva holds the fact that you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘ two and you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘ for ื”ื›ื ืกื” could be for two reasons: it could be because of ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘, could be because you need ื“' ืขืœ ื“' and you don't have, so we don't know. Since we don't know which one it is, we have no proof either way. So we have no proof that Rabbi Akiva holds ืขืงื™ืจื” does not need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', we have no proof that he needs that it does need. So the Gemara says, we're looking for a ืžืืŸ ื“ืืžืจ that you could tell me clearly, for sure holds ืขืงื™ืจื” ื”ื ื—ื” doesn't need ื“' and ืขืงื™ืจื” doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. And the Gemara's kashya is from Rabbi Akiva you have no re'aya, because ื“ื™ืœืžื maybe Rabbi Akiva holds that ืขืงื™ืจื” does need, and maybe that's the reason why he says you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘ two. Maybe not. So what's Tosafos asking? Maybe not. Maybe not, but it's still it takes away the proof. Because there's a possibility, it takes away the proof. So that's what Tosafos My she'eilah is the opposite, why does he say ืื™ื–ื” ืงื•ืฉื™ื ื›ืœ ื›ืš? It's no Tosafos' kashya happens to be no kashya at all. Obviously there's something. Huh? What do you mean different meaning? No, but the Gemara doesn't say the proof. Yeah. Yeah, so why does Why would you think Rashi says that? Yeah. Right. Tosafot is looking like that. Yeah. Exactly. So what is it? So let me explain. What he's saying is right. Why is it not ืงืฉื™ื ื›ืœ ื›ืš? Because ืœื›ืื•ืจื” Tosafot doesn't make sense. Tosafot say maybe it's because So I'll tell you. I'll explain what it what the is, you have to go a step further. If there is no ืกื‘ืจื ื“ืืจืฃ ื”ืื‘ืŸ ืงืืค, we have to use our heads. If there is no sevara to be mechalek between ืขืงื™ืจื” and ื”ื ื—ื”, let's say there is no logic, there is no sevara to make a chiluk that ื”ื ื—ื” doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“' and ืขืงื™ืจื” does, there is no sevara. And then we look at Rabbi Akiva, and Rabbi Akiva makes a chiluk between the in this case between a ื”ื•ืฆืื” you're chayav and a ื”ื ื—ื” and ื”ื›ื ืกื” you're not chayav. So Tosafot learns peshat in Rashi that Rashi, ืขืœ ืคื™ ืคืฉื•ื˜ื•, is saying there is no sevara to be mechalek. If there is no sevara to be mechalek, then what's the sevara why you're not chayav two? Because of ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘. If there is a sevara to make a chiluk, so you can say then I don't know, maybe the reason is because there is a logical sevara to make a chiluk, and that's why he says you're not chayav two because you're not chayav the second one because ืขืงื™ืจื” might be different than ื”ื ื—ื”, or maybe the sevara is because you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘, could be either way. Tosafot learned in Rashi, Rashi didn't give any sevara why ืขืงื™ืจื” should be different than ื”ื ื—ื”. So it seems that Tosafot learns in Rashi that the only reason Rashi has that there is a ื—ื™ืœื•ืง in Rabbi Akiva in ืขืงื™ืจื” and ื”ื ื—ื” because there is no other explanation. There is no sevara. ืขืœ ืคื™ ืฉื›ืœ, I'll never make a ื—ื™ืœื•ืง in ืขืงื™ืจื” ื”ื ื—ื”. That's what Rashi seems to be saying. Rashi doesn't give a ืฉื›ืœ why, but the Gemara says, ื“ื™ืœืžื ื”ื ื—ื” ืœื ื‘ืขื™, ืขืงื™ืจื” ื‘ืขื™. Rashi doesn't say, well, because there's a sevara. Rashi says, because I see that! I have no other choice. I see that he says you're ื—ื™ื™ื‘ one not two. So there's no other choice. ืคืจืขื’ื˜ Tosafot, what do you mean there's no other choice? There is another choice, and if there is another choice which makes sense, and to make a ื—ื™ืœื•ืง in ืขืงื™ืจื” and ื”ื ื—ื” does not make sense, so what is it? The one that makes sense. That's why he asks on Rashi. He assumes again, he assumes that according to Rashi there Rashi didn't give a reason why there is a ื—ื™ืœื•ืง in ืขืงื™ืจื” and ื”ื ื—ื”. And the only reason the Gemara even brings up such a concept that maybe ื”ื ื—ื” doesn't need and ืขืงื™ืจื” needs is because I have no ื‘ืจื™ืจื”. He says you're ื—ื™ื™ื‘ only one, and you're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘ for the second, and I have no other ื‘ืจื™ืจื”, why? It must be because ืขืงื™ืจื” is different than ื”ื ื—ื”, not because I understand. ื–ืื’ื˜ Tosafot, if that's the ืคืฉื˜ that there is no sevara, I have another reason, and that makes sense, so obviously it's the other reason, it's not this. And if that's the and if it makes sense the other reason and this has no sevara, so then the Gemara's kashya is no kashya. See if you would learn that the Gemara's kashya is maybe ื”ื ื—ื” doesn't need and ืขืงื™ืจื” needs is ืขืœ ืคื™ ืฉื›ืœ, I have a reason why ืขืงื™ืจื” is worse than ื”ื ื—ื”. And if it's worse, and the fact that you have by ื”ื ื—ื” that you don't need, no re'aya for ืขืงื™ืจื”. But if I have no sevara, the moment we find by ื”ื ื—ื”, what should be the din by ืขืงื™ืจื”? Exact same way. But if azoy, how come you're chayav two? So there must be that there's ื”ืœื›ื” ืœืžืฉื” ืžืกื™ื ื™, I don't know, there's a din, a ื—ื™ืœื•ืง in ืขืงื™ืจื” and ื”ื ื—ื”. But because I have no choice. Comes Tosafot and says, I don't know what you're saying to Rashi. There is another sevara. There is a sevara to say because of ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘. So, and there is no sevara why ืขืงื™ืจื” is different from ื”ื ื—ื” ื‘ื ื’ื™ืขื” ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช, ื‘ื ื’ื™ืขื” ื“ืณ ืขืœ ื“ืณ. So obviously this must be the reason. And then the kashya that the Gemara asks falls off. Cuz the kashya the Gemara is only based on this din, but not ืขืœ ืคื™ ืกื‘ืจื. That's how you have to learn pshat in Tosafot, in order to answer the the Tosafot Yeshanim's kashya. But to answer what the Tosafot Yeshanim learned, is that Rashi does have a sevara. You follow? If Rashi will see, and Rashi has a sevara without the re'aya, this is just a ra'aya that the sevara is true. There is a sevara why ืขืงื™ืจื” should be different than ื”ื ื—ื”. And there are ื›ืžื” ื•ื›ืžื” ืกื‘ืจื•ืช. Rashi didn't mention it, so Tosafos feels that Rashi doesn't hold of any sevaros, just a ra'aya from here. What kind of sevaros do we have? So, once before, if you remember, I mentioned that sevara already. I mentioned a sevara, pshat in Rashba. Remember, on ื“ืฃ ื’ืณ ืขืžื•ื“ ืืณ, the Rashba brought this this din? Here, ื“ืฃ ื’ืณ ืขืžื•ื“ ืืณ. And the Rashba says that when the Gemara has a she'eilah of ืขืงื™ืจืช ื’ื•ืคื• ื›ืขืงื™ืจืช ื—ืคืฅ, I'm just reminding you because by the test you'll have to remember the Gemara on ื“ืฃ ื’ืณ also. So the Gemara has a ืฉืืœื” ืขืงื™ืจืช ื’ื•ืคื• ื›ืขืงื™ืจืช ื—ืคืฅ, so Tosafos says, what about ื”ื ื—ื”? What did Tosafos say? It's not supposed to be Huh? What did Tosafos say? When the Gemara asks is ืขืงื™ืจืช ื’ื•ืคื• ื›ืขืงื™ืจืช ื—ืคืฅ, what about ื”ื ื—ื”? Sure. Not the sure, the same she'eilah. What the Gemara said, the Gemara meant ื”ื ื—ื” also. Comes the Tosafos Yeshanim and brings the Rashba that the Rashba says, ื“ื”ื ื—ื” ืคืฉื™ื˜ื ืœื™ื”. And he says why? Because ื”ื ื—ื” ื’ื•ืคื™ื”, for ื”ื ื—ื” it's easier to make ื”ื ื—ื” than the ืขืงื™ืจื”. And a ra'aya he brings from this Gemara that the Gemara says, ื“ื™ืœืžื ื”ื ื—ื” ืœื ื‘ืขื™, ืขืงื™ืจื” ื‘ืขื™. And I explained then what's the chiluk in ื”ื ื—ื” and ืขืงื™ืจื”, if you remember? You're taking away the ื™ืฉื ื•ืช. Oh, something that's there already, to break it is harder than something that's not there to make it. So there is a logic why ืขืงื™ืจื” is different than ื”ื ื—ื”. So when Rashi says here, peshat in when the Gemara asks ื“ื™ืœืžื ื”ื ื—ื” ืœื ื‘ืขื™, ืขืงื™ืจื” ื‘ืขื™, ืจืฉืดื™ has a sevara. And if Rashi has a sevara, that could be the reason why you're not chayav two, but it's not an ื”ื›ืจื—. Could be not, but at least there is no re'aya that ื”ื ื—ื” ืขืงื™ืจื” also needs doesn't need ื“ืณ ืขืœ ื“ืณ. So if you have a sevara, we understand the Tosafot Yeshanim's kushya. So Tosafot learn peshat in Rashi that there is no sevara, and the whole kushya of ื“ื™ืœืžื ื”ื ื—ื” ืœื ื‘ืขื™, ืขืงื™ืจื” ื‘ืขื™ is based just on the din. So Tosafot, if you have no sevara then it must be because that you don't ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืชื•ืœื“ื” ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืื‘. But Rashi himself, and the way Tosafot Yeshanim understands Rashi, Rashi has a sevara, ืžืžื™ืœื there's a possibility of both ways, and the moment there's a possibility of both ways, there is no proof that ื”ื ื—ื”, ืขืงื™ืจื” doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', that's the Gemara's she'ela. So again, so one sevara why ืขืงื™ืจื” is different than ื”ื ื—ื” we just said now, what is it? That to make it is easier than to break it. Then there are other sevarot that we have.

The Maharal's and Rashba's sevaros for why hanacha needs less than akirah

The Gur Aryeh was written by maybe it is, Rafael? Who wrote the Sefer Gur Aryeh? ืชืœืžื™ื“ of the Rashi? He said, is that the person who had the the ื’ืœื’ื•ืœ? The ื’ื•ืœื. No, the ื’ืœื’ื•ืœ. Maharal. The Maharal of Prague. The ื’ื•ืœื guy. Yeah, that's who he meant. Maharal of Prague wrote it. Okay. What's his He says like this: He says that when you put something down, you are machshiv that place. Connected to ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช ืืœื ืืžืจ ืจื‘ ื™ื•ืกืฃ. ืขืœ ื“ืจืš, when you put something down, you are machshiv, you want to put it down here. You're putting it down. When you pick something up, is the place that you're taking it from important? No, opposite. Sometimes you have that you don't davka take it away from there. Usually when you take something from here because you want to bring it some place else. So, what's the important part? The place you're bringing it to or the place you're taking it away from? The place you're bringing it to. That's the sevara, he says. Maybe you don't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“' when you put something down by hanachah, because you're putting it down, so that putting it down and wanting to put it down makes chashivut. That's why that doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', because it's chashuv in itself, the fact that you intend to put it down. But the place that you're taking it from which is not chashuv, that's something that doesn't have the chashivut, mimeila that in order to be a makom chashuv has to have has to have the ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. Be'emet, this is a sevara, listen to this, this is a sevara that the Baal HaMaor says, here in the Gemara in the back, to answer Tosafot's kushya in the next in the next Tosafot. In the ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช ืืœื, ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช asks the she'eilah: Rav Yosef and Rabbah come to find out who's the one that holds you don't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. Rabbah says it's Rabbi Akiva, Rav Yosef says it's Rabbi. Why do they need anything? He asks. Why don't Rabbah and Rav Yosef in a different Gemara Eruvin hold that ืžื—ืฉื‘ืชื• ืžืฉื•ื™ื ืœื™ื” ืžืงื•ื, that machshavah makes a makom. So you know what the Baal HaMaor answers? Tosafot gives a different terutz. The Baal HaMaor says this: ืžื—ืฉื‘ืชื• ืžืฉื•ื™ื ืœื™ื” ืžืงื•ื only fits to hanachah, not to akirah. And we're looking now for akirah also. Why does it fit only to hanachah? He says this vort: when you put it down, you want it to be down here. So, ืžื—ืฉื‘ืชื• ืžืฉื•ื™ื ืœื™ื” ืžืงื•ื, that makes that this is a makom chashuv because that's what you want. But ah? How does it apply by akirah? He says how it doesn't. Okay, we'll have to We'll get to that Tosafot. We're not talking about that Tosafot yet. We're discussing I'm just bringing this in as a re'ayah or a dugma to what I'm saying in the previous Tosafot. So in the case of akirah No, Tosafot brings a case of akirah also, ืจื•ืง. Yeah, that's what he's asking. So when we get to the Tosafot, we'll discuss that. But I'm saying we'll have to look into the Baal HaMaor. But I'm saying, but he makes a chiluk, but by akirah, since the place you're taking it from is not important to you, ad'rabah, you're taking it away from there, the place is important? So mimeila over there, we don't say ืžื—ืฉื‘ื” ืžืฉื•ื™ื ืœื™ื” ืžืงื•ื. So this is basically another ืกื‘ืจื ืขืœ ืคื™ ืฉื›ืœ, not because we have a re'ayah from the din, another sevara why hanachah will not need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', and akirah will need, because akirah you need to make it chashuv, because if it's not ื“' ืขืœ ื“' it's not chashuv, and your machshavah doesn't make it chashuv. But hanachah, you could say you put it down makes it chashuv. Then there Then there's another sevara that's brought down, takeh from the Rashba, not the same Rashba that Tosafot brings, the Rashba in the ืจืืฉื•ื ื™ื, the Rashba. He says to finish something off, which is similar to what I said ืœื’ื‘ื™ before, but it's not exactly the same, to finish something off is easier than to start off. I said it because you make it from something nothing. So therefore, hanacha, which is finishing off, you whatever you're doing, you picked it up, this, and now you finished, you put it down, that is easier to accomplish than the other way. And therefore, there's a sevara to say that hanacha doesn't need four by four, and akirah does. So you can learn that Rashi goes along with all these sevarot. Okay, that's let's see, looking at the time, let's go vayter for just start off a second. Not nogea, I want to start the next next Gemara already.

Tosafos' parallel question from zarek v'nach al ziz kol shehu

When the Gemara brought, after the Gemara asked, it's no reaya from Rabbi Akiva, because hanacha, maybe hanacha doesn't need, but akirah needs, so we brought Rabbi. And then we started with the first case of ืจื‘ื™, ื–ืจืง ื•ื ื— ืขืœ ื–ื™ื– ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื, so obviously you don't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. Comes Tosafot, and Tosafot asks, same question, that likhora we have the same question. Really we should talk about the Tosafot before, but I just want to stop for one minute, so a ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช ื–ืจืง. Likhora, the same kushya. All we see that if it landed on a ื–ื™ื–, that's hanacha. How do we know akirah? That's Tosafot's kushya. And what's Tosafot's terutz? You could have asked it. But then Tosafot says a whole kushya later, and at the end what does Tosafot say? No, you could, but the Tosafot says according to the Gemara there. The bottom line, what does Tosafos say? When is there a svara there's a chiluk between akirah and hanacha? If it doesn't need anything. If in the air it's considered stopped and there's nothing under it, so you don't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', you don't need anything. So then the Gemara says maybe hanacha doesn't, akirah does. If you hold that it needs something, but it's enough a ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื, then there is no svara to make a difference between akirah and hanacha. When the Gemara asks that ืฉืืœื”, that's Tosafos's terutz. The Gemara asks the ืฉืืœื” here before when we're saying Rabbi Akiva holds it doesn't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“', where do we see it? ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. It doesn't need anything. It doesn't have to be not on a ื“' ืขืœ ื“', it doesn't even on an inch, it doesn't have anything. So the Gemara says such a thing, maybe only hanacha doesn't need, but akirah does. But Rabbi we don't see he doesn't, he says you don't need anything. What do we see the best in Rabbi? At at at most, what do we see? That he needs a ื–ื™ื– ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื, something, but it isn't ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. So if you need something, then there is no svara to say that maybe hanacha needs only a little bit and akirah doesn't, akirah needs full full. There it's not. That's That's what Tosafos says. Right, right, so the so but the ืฉืืœื”, what does Tosafos mean? What's the svara? Why if it needs a ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื, you can't say hanacha is different? So if you give all the sevarot, we we've said some of the sevarot before, makes no difference. Obviously, there's a different svara why. So here you have the Chatam Sofer and the and the Sefat Emet, they all say a peshat, you know the Maharam, what's the difference? Why if it needs ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื, it's not? And I'll tell you in one word. If you need a ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื, obviously, you need a makom. But a ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื is considered makom. The moment ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื is considered makom, then why would akirah be different? If you don't need anything, that means you don't need a makom. Maybe hanachah doesn't need a makom and akirah needs a makom. But if you say it needs a ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื, so it definitely needs a makom. Ela mai, a ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื is considered makom. If ื›ืœ ืฉื”ื•ื is considered makom, so what akirah needs a makom then. So then both would be the same. Okay, we'll be mamshich next time. Quick question. When you explained the Rambam and Rashi in the beginning about do they hold that the ground is the reshut harabim? You said that, so according to Rambam, Ramban. Ramban, when it's above it, it's counted as a separate The floor, everything is the floor. Right, so So till here is connected to the floor, and this is too far from the floor. And then Tosafot is whole So, Tosafot says no, this has nothing to do with the floor, the air is the reshut harabim. So what's he, so what does he call it? Not too far, what does he call it? So then this is on top of this This is, why? Because this is this is an avir on top of this avir. Okay. Thank you. You know what? I should respond. Go check. Do you have Sue's number? Freezing in here. What did you do? Don't. Betcha they don't know they don't remember Tower Air. They don't know how good it is. Tower. Oh wait. Mendel, is there a store in here you'd like to go to? 43, 44, 45. How many wipes do you have? I had twelve. What did you guys buy last night? Why is that not functioning? I don't know why it's a big runaway. Get him out today. Mirror door. Oh yeah, yeah, mirror door. Yeah. Nu? Better than the last 10 years. Archie! Whatever you decide, that's what we're going to do. ื–ื” ื”ืœื›ื”. Iz di halokhe.
