Gitta is so special (as we all know) a dedicated and decorated educator, a supportive and loving wife, mother, and bubby, an insightful and caring partner in this journey of ours in Daf Yomi. I know you all join me when I say - we love you Gitta!" Today's daf is sponsored by Or Eliasian in loving memory of Michal bat Shasha Chava. Today's daf is sponsored for a continued refuah shleima for Shlomo Gavriel ben Esther. How is the commandment to honor one's parents linked to the commandment to honor God? Dama ben Netina was a gentile who respected his father in an exceptional manner and his actions are brought as an example of how to perform the mitzva. Other examples are brought of those others who fulfilled the mitzva of respecting their parents - some are praised and others are criticized. How does one respect one's parents when they are no longer alive?
