In the last 150 years, few things have created disputes in Jewish communities, in the way Eruvin has. Why? What makes an Eruv so very different to Kashrus? And in hindsight can we now work out who was right?  Could Yerushalayim hold the key?    Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Eiruv and Jewish Heritage 02:53 The Historical Context of Eiruv in Toronto 05:47 Rabbi Graubart's Contributions to Eiruv 09:01 The Evolution of Eiruv in Toronto 11:45 Challenges of Eiruv in Yerushalayim 15:03 Halachic Perspectives on Eiruv 17:51 Debates on Eiruv and Community Needs 21:00 The Role of Local Rabbanim in Eiruv Decisions 24:10 Conclusion and Future of Eiruv Discussions 30:11 The Complexity of Eruvin Decisions 34:30 Halachic Perspectives on Shabbos and Eruvin 39:51 Community Needs and Rabbinical Authority 45:40 Historical Context and Modern Implications of Eruvin 52:18 The Challenges of Eruvin in Contemporary Society

Documents and Responsa from across the Jewish world reveal that for centuries Jews discussed, debated and disagreed over the Shabbos Eruv Walled cities, canals, telegraph poles, Kabbala, fires and powerful secular rulers all played their role and affected entire communities.

A weekly shiur by Dayan Levi Yitzchok Raskin, Rov of Anash in London, explores interesting Torah questions and halachic dilemmas. The following issues are discussed by Dayan Raskin in this week's episode: 1) Some sources depict a gap in the ramp (כבש) as it reaches the Mizbeiach:[1] 2) I have recently visited several gravesites and I now realise that I didn't recite the appropriate brocho. If I visit another gravesite within thirty days, do I say the brocho?[2] 3) I ate a new fruit without saying Shehecheyonu; I now have that fruit again – do I say that brocho now?[3] 4) My child is eighteen months old. I just fed him chicken; may I now feed him milk?[4] 5) An older member of our community has moved into a care-home. His home will duly be sold – at this time, we have no clue to whom. May the Mezuzos be removed?[5] 6) We have a local Eruv. When visitors make a pledge to the Shul, may the Gabbai give them a card with the Shul's bank details?[6] 7) When seeing the Grand Canyon, do I say the brocho: עושה מעשה בראשית?[7] 8) What is the brocho for red or black currants?[8] 9) When does the Chazan begin saying Kadish before Shmoine Esrei at Mincha of Taanis Tzibur?[9] 10) Is standing for Krias haTorah optional?[10] 11) Please address the minhag to avoid eating and drinking from chipped dishes:[11] 12) Feedback on Tefilas haDerech for journey shorter than 72 minutes: ________________________________________ [1] ראה סוכה מט א. אבל קשה ממשנה יומא מג ב. וראה אנציקלופדי' תלמודית כרך מג ע' תטו, תסו; The Original Second Temple (Yoav Elan).

If a boat reached its port on Shabbat, it is permitted to disembark on Shabbat. Assuming that the boat travelled across water deeper than 10 Tefahim (handbreadths), there is no issue of Tehum Shabbat (leaving the boundaries of Shabbat). Accordingly, the Jewish passengers are considered residents of the port city and can freely walk its entire domain. Even if non-Jews erect a ramp to disembark, the Jews may use it, since it was constructed for the benefit of the majority of non-Jewish passengers. Hacham Ovadia even permits disembarking from a ship via means of a smaller boat that ferries passengers to shore. So long as the non-Jewish sailors operate the boat for the majority of the non-Jewish passengers, it is permitted for the Jew to benefit from the service. Of course, caution must be exercised to a avoid issues of mukse and carrying without an Eruv. Often, the ship requires passengers to present their passport to return on board, and therefore, a Halachic solution must be implemented. Also, one must insure that no violations of Shabbat are incurred as a result of triggering electronic sensors or mechanisms upon disembarking. SUMMARY It is permitted to disembark a ship on Shabbat via a smaller ferry.

Is it permissible on Shabbat to ask a gentile to bring for him an item that he had forgotten in his car? For example, if a person forgot his Tallit in the car, or if he purchased some food or drinks for Shabbat and forgot to bring them inside before Shabbat began, may he ask a non-Jew to go into his car and bring the items inside for him? The Jew, of course, may not open the car door or trunk because this will turn on the light in the car. But may he ask a gentile to bring the items inside for him? Rav Shemuel Pinchasi, in his recent work on Hilchot Shabbat, rules that in an area enclosed by a proper Eruv, it is permissible to ask a gentile to bring items from one's car on Shabbat. In such a case, the Jew requests only that the gentile open the door; he does not request that the light be turned on. And although the light will inevitably be kindled as a result of the gentile's opening the door, the rule of "Pesik Reishei," which forbids performing an action on Shabbat that will inevitably result in a forbidden action, does not apply with regard to gentiles. Therefore, one may ask a gentile to open the car door even if this will cause the light to be turned on. Rav Pinchasi notes that there is even greater room for leniency on Shabbat day, when the light is not even necessary for finding the item in the car. Summary: If a person left in his car an item that he needs for Shabbat, he may ask a gentile to bring the item from the car, even though opening the door will cause the light in the car to be turned on.

A weekly shiur by Dayan Levi Yitzchok Raskin, Rov of Anash in London, explores interesting Torah questions and halachic dilemmas. The following issues are discussed by Dayan Raskin in this week's episode: 1) Someone suffering from diabetes drinks sweet apple-juice; does he say a brocho? [1] 2) In error, I bought some non-Cholov Yisroel products. May I give them to a Jewish neighbour who uses non-Cholov Yisroel?[2] 3) I was at a bar mitzvah celebration in Yerusholayim, where for Shabbos lunch we were served was hot fish and hot chicken. I was told by the Arab waiter that they had put those foods in the oven that morning. I am puzzled because of: a) the placing of food in the oven on Shabbos; b) the heating of fluids. Is it true that Sefardim rule leniently on all of the above?[3] 4) When the foods were heated for a Sefardi, is an Ashkenazi permitted to benefit? 5) What is the origin of the custom for a woman after having given birth, that her first excursion from her home is to go to Shul to hear Kedusha or Borchu?[4] 6) Is there an issue with drinking water that was left uncovered overnight? [5] 7) I have learned that when bentsching with a mezuman, it is correct for the leader to recite the first brocho aloud. Why is that not followed in our community?[6] 8) I'm working as a Mashgiach for the kosher kitchen on a cruise-liner. May I carry freely on the ship on Shabbos, or must I make an Eruv?[7] 9) At a Bris held on Shabbos after Musaf, what is the procedure regarding Kiddush?[8] ________________________________________ [1] ס' שערי הברכה פי"ג ס"ד ובהערה.

Unlock the wisdom of Talmudic teachings as we journey through the complexities of charity, the sanctity of Shabbat, and the nuances of rabbinic authority. We delve into a profound discussion that bridges ancient texts with contemporary dilemmas. This episode is a window into the debate over how we support those in need, with a focus on providing meals to travelers and panhandlers, and the intricacies of balancing our charitable duties with the sacred observance of Shabbat—where even washing dishes and handling garbage have their own set of considerations.Embark on an exploration of Shabbat observance that goes beyond the surface, where our reflections on a friend's unintended Shabbat transgression lead to a broader conversation about rabbinic prohibitions and the intent behind them. The discussion spans leisure activities to the symbolic act of dedicating certain items for Shabbat use, each underscoring the delicate tapestry of tradition that weaves through our weekly day of rest. We also scrutinize the purpose and challenges of an Eruv in modern cityscapes, a concept that marks the boundaries of our community and practice.The closing segment of our episode is a poignant examination of identity and belonging, as we recount the story of a Mexican community with an unexpected link to Jewish heritage. The emotional resonance of a precautionary conversion for those with uncertain lineages is explored, illuminating the profound journey of individuals seeking to solidify their place within the folds of tradition. This episode is not just a discussion; it's an invitation to understand the enduring importance of our roots and the comforting certainty they bestow upon our faith and identity. Join us for a narrative that celebrates the enduring legacy of Judaism and the intellectual, emotional, and spiritual engagement it demands from each of us.*****The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses.

Welcome to 2024! The year that L.A. Meekly turns deeply religious! This month we're covering a few hidden and not so hidden religious locations and movements from around Los Angeles. We're covering the Jewish eruv (19:06), the Mormon Los Angeles California Temple (31:35), the Pentecostal Azusa Street Revival (45:54) and the Koyasan Buddhist Temple (1:16:55).

Get ready to shine a light on the rich teachings of the Talmud as we unpack the nuances of Chanukah and Mitzvahs. Unearth the importance of the menorah's placement relative to the mezuzah and engage in vibrant discussions around the prohibition of using the menorah light for personal use. Prepare to understand the reverence accorded to all Mitzvahs through real-life examples and also, learn why it's crucial to be careful while lighting the menorah.We venture further into the depths of Chanukah traditions, elucidating the need for a separate shamash candle and the role it plays in reigniting a candle that has extinguished. Hear our thoughts on how Mitzvahs, much like candles, illuminate the rewards for those who engage in good deeds. We also unravel a dispute between two sages about whether a wood chip or a menorah should be used to light a candle and how this impacts the perceived value of the Mitzvah.We then turn our attention to the Eruv - a symbolic boundary enabling certain activities on the Sabbath. Hear about the challenges of maintaining a continuous eruv, and the unique occurrence in Houston where the design of electric wires aids the creation of an Eruv. We also share our experiences and the importance of rabbinical oversight in maintaining an Eruv. Finally, we delve into in incident in Upstate NY where the eruv was damaged just before Shabbat, prompting an exploration of Halachic laws surrounding the eruv.

Get ready to shine a light on the rich teachings of the Talmud as we unpack the nuances of Chanukah and Mitzvahs. Unearth the importance of the menorah's placement relative to the mezuzah and engage in vibrant discussions around the prohibition of using the menorah light for personal use. Prepare to understand the reverence accorded to all Mitzvahs through real-life examples and also, learn why it's crucial to be careful while lighting the menorah.We venture further into the depths of Chanukah traditions, elucidating the need for a separate shamash candle and the role it plays in reigniting a candle that has extinguished. Hear our thoughts on how Mitzvahs, much like candles, illuminate the rewards for those who engage in good deeds. We also unravel a dispute between two sages about whether a wood chip or a menorah should be used to light a candle and how this impacts the perceived value of the Mitzvah.We then turn our attention to the Eruv - a symbolic boundary enabling certain activities on the Sabbath. Hear about the challenges of maintaining a continuous eruv, and the unique occurrence in Houston where the design of electric wires aids the creation of an Eruv. We also share our experiences and the importance of rabbinical oversight in maintaining an Eruv. Finally, we delve into in incident in Upstate NY where the eruv was damaged just before Shabbat, prompting an exploration of Halachic laws surrounding the eruv.

Regarding one law that is applicable this year. Because the holiday is falling out on a Thursday and Friday, and we're going straight into Shabbat, Halacha does tell us that it is forbidden to cook from Yom Tov to Shabbat. Even though Friday is Yom Tov and we are allowed to cook according to the Halachot of Yom Tov, but one would not be allowed to prepare the food on Friday for the Friday night Shabbat, unless one prepared Eruv Tavshilin on Erev Pesach, which this year would be Wednesday. Wednesday before the holiday, Halacha says; you take a slice of Matzah that at least has the shiur of a kezayit and you take a hard boiled egg, and make sure its cooked well, and you place them on the side, and you make the Beracha, "Asher Kidishanu Bemitzvotav Vitsivanu Al Mitzvat Eruv", and then you recite; "Biden Eruva….", ‘With this Eruv that I am making, it would be permissible for me to cook, and to bake, and to carry, and to do all my needs for Yom Tov to Shabbat.' So Eruv Tavshilin is vital in order to make those preparations. Now, it should be pointed out, Eruv Tavshilin while it helps you for Friday to Shabbat, it does not help from one Yom Tov to the next. This means, if let's say, someone is having a Seder by their home on Thursday night, which is the 2nd night of Yom Tov, and now they want to start preparing Thursday afternoon, cooking the rice, and preparing some of the foods, so that when the people come home Thursday night its all ready- It's Forbidden. We're not allowed to prepare from one Yom Tov to another! We must wait until its dark outside, and then you can start cooking for the holiday. So this Eruv only allows you to start preparing food Thursday night or Friday for the Shabbat meal. Of course the cooking and the preparations have to be finished obviously before Shabbat.Now, in the event one forgets to make the Eruv Tavshilin, Halacha tells us that the Rabbi of the City, of every city knowing that people forget or don't know, he has in mind when he makes his Eruv to include all the dwellers in the city. So Bediavad, if you forgot to make Eruv Tavshilin, you're still OK, as you can rely on the Rabbi's Eruv. However, you cannot rely on the Rabbi's Eruv Lachatchila. Which means you can't say; ‘I'm not making an Eruv, and I'm too busy, and I'm relying on the Rabbi's.' That does not work. It only works in the case where you made a mistake, or you forgot or there were circumstances where you couldn't do the Eruv.Of course you place the Eruv in a safe place and Halacha says you have to be careful that you don't eat it until after you finish your cooking on Friday for Shabbat. Halacha says, let's say you ate or somebody ate it, then now your Eruv is invalid, so either you have to rely on the Rabbi's Eruv, or Halacha says you can make Eruv Tavshilin on the 1st day of Yom Tov. It's an interesting Case. Let's say you remember on the 1st day of Yom Tov, this year being Thursday that you didn't make Eruv Tavshilin, you could then still make it. However, you have to say the following condition. The condition is we have 2 days of Yom Tov, and Yom Tov is really on Thursday or on Friday. We keep 2 days out of Safek, but one of the days is actually Yom Tov and one of the days is really Chol, so we make the following condition: ‘If today is Yom Tov, and therefore I would not be allowed to make an Eruv on Yom Tov, then no problem, because you don't need an Eruv, because tomorrow, Friday would really be a weekday, and you're allowed to cook a weekday to Shabbat. So again, if today is Yom Tov, then you really don't need an Eruv. However, if today is Chol, then you're allowed to make an Eruv, and then you make the Eruv, so that Friday you can cook for Shabbat, and when tomorrow is Yom Tov, so therefore you make this condition. Once you make this condition the Eruv then works even on Yom Tov Rishon (1st day), but you do not make a Beracha.Halacha says when should you eat the Eruv? Preferably you eat it on Shabbat, and the custom is to eat at Seudat Shelishit. You take the Matzah and the egg in order to do another Mitzvah. The Gemarah says that since you're doing one Mitzvah, you want to recycle it and do another Mitzvah. Again you should remind the ladies or the men, as its not specifically a lady's item, that one should prepare the Eruv Tavshilin on Wednesday afternoon, and one should set it aside and fulfill this most important Mitzvah.It's a trivia question - What's the only Beracha that Lechatchila, you could only make on a Wednesday? And that's the Beracha of Al Mitzvat Eruv.
