  1. Episode 1

    S4E1: Starting a court case on Friday afternoon (Shabbat 1:1-2)

    Today we start our new tractate, Shabbat! I explain why I chose Shabbat and some of the considerations when picking a longer tractate. I talk about how we want to frame our learning about Shabbat and how the mishna’s focus on “don’t” creates an imperative for us to add elements to remind ourselves of the joys of Shabbat. We learn the first mishna, about transferring, and I heavily recommend simplifying the first sentence. The second mishna starts where we might expect Shabbat to start: On Friday afternoon, thinking about what things we should not start if we might not be able to finish them. You can find these mishnas here.  I’m excited to announce that I’ll be teaching a class for the Valley Beit Midrash on the topic of “What does the Mishna Teach us about the People who Wrote it?” on Thursday, September 10 at 10am PST/1pm EST.

  2. Episode 2

    S4E2: Drop that Quill! (Shabbat 1:3-4)

    In today’s episode, we discuss decrees the rabbis made to keep people from absent-mindedly violating other prohibitions, such as carrying work tools on Shabbat. We are introduced to the idea of “Bo Bayom”, a day where the student of Shammai outnumbered the students of Hillel and made 18 laws in the beit midrash. You can find these mishnas here.    I’m excited to announce that I’ll be teaching a class for the Valley Beit Midrash on the topic of “What does the Mishna Teach us about the People who Wrote it?” on Thursday, September 10 at 10am PST/1pm EST.
