About this episode
Study Guide Eruvin 30 This week's learning is sponsored by Terri Krivosha in honor of Judge Norman Krivosha. My father, Judge Norman Krivosha, has encouraged my sister and me, since we were young girls growing up in the sixties, that girls could do anything to which we set our minds. Who would have ever thought that could mean reading the entire talmud from beginning to end? He has been and still is my mentor, father, friend and advisor and I love him very much. Today's daf is sponsored by Mindy and Eric Hecht and family in honor of their niece Talya Agus who is drafting today. We are so proud of you and wish you much success over the next two years of your service to Medinat Yisrael. Do we determine the amount of food one needs to use for the eruv based on the average person or based on the specific person making the eruv. Is it objective or subjective? If one vows not to eat a certain food, can one use it for the eruv? Does it depend on the wording used for the vow - whether or not it included not benefiting from the bread? Beit Shamai and Beit Hillel disagree about whether or not an Israelite can use an eruv with truma or a nazir with wine. What does Sumchus hold that an Israelite cannot use truma for an eruv but a nazir can use wine? Why can a priest put his eruv in a beit hapras where there may be bones from a dead body? What it the root of the debate in the mishna regarding a priest putting an eruv in a cemetery?
