Podcasts about Yehoshua

The Gemara explains the basis of the disagreement in the braita between Rabbi Yehuda and the Rabbis, and how the second position of the Rabbis differs from the first position in the name of the rabbis in that same braita. Rabbi Shimon's source in the Torah for his view limiting the communal offerings brought in Gilgal is a verse in Yehoshua 5:10, which describes the Jews bringing the Paschal offering just a few days after crossing the Jordan River into the Land of Israel.  The reason the structure of Shilo was built with stone walls while its ceiling was only a curtain is derived from seemingly contradictory verses - some referring to Shilo as a "house" and others as a "tent." Four rabbis each cite a different verse to explain the law that during the period when the Tabernacle stood in Shilo, kodshim kalim and maaser sheni could be eaten anywhere within sight of Shilo. There is also a debate about whether the Tabernacle in Shilo was located in the territory of Yosef or Binyamin.  A braita discusses how many years the Tabernacle remained in each location and explains the calculations: thirty-nine years in the desert, fourteen in Gilgal, fifty-seven in Nov and Givon, and three hundred sixty-nine in Shilo.

On slaughtering the red heifer "outside of the pit" has to mean more than "outside of the Temple," as this offering was always made outside of the Temple. So what is the concern here? The Gemara provides a few suggestions. Also, a sidestep away from the dispute between R. Yochanan and Resh Lakish on the daf about the concern of impurity in the land - and whether there might be bones in the ground from the time of the Flood (which, if there, are reason to be concerned about impurity in the ground). But did the Flood actually come to the land of Israel? And could there be anything interfering with the (apparently identifiable) bedrock? Plus, women would give birth to children who would draw water to contribute to the next red heifer offering (as part of the process) - children who were kept free of ritual impurity to be able to play this role. And if that isn't clear for the whole land, then at least Jerusalem - where R. Yehoshua essentially stipulates that the holy city is not impure. Also, more on the Flood itself - and how the huge animals were saved from the waters, given that they wouldn't have fit on the ark.

Yehoshua catches Achan and his crime is revealed, leading to his punishment and the rectification of the issue.

Gemara Chagiga 3a- the derasha of R' Elazar ben Azarya was dear to R' Yehoshua, as it reverberated personally for him.

A beraita quoting a dispute between between R. Eliezer and R. Yehoshua. A comparison between the sin-offering and the guilt-offering, distinguishing between them in several ways, including details about the way blood was applied to the altar, above and below a red line on the altar. With other details being similar to uphold the comparisons.

A vital lesson in leadership from Yehoshua.

Halacha requires reciting Birkot Ha'Torah in the morning before one learns Torah. Does this apply only if one wants to learn Torah verbally, or even if one is interested in learning silently, such as by reading without saying the words? For example, if a person wakes up in the middle of the night, and he wants to read a Torah book to help him fall back asleep, must he first recite Birkot Ha'Torah? This question arises also if one sits and drinks coffee early in the morning before reciting Birkot Ha'Torah. May he silently read a Torah book while drinking, or must he first recite Birkot Ha'Torah? For that matter, is one allowed upon waking in the morning to think about Torah before he recites Birkot Ha'Torah? The Bet Yosef cites the Agur (Rav Yaakob Landau, 1410-1493) as ruling that Birkot Ha'Torah is required only before learning Torah verbally, but not before learning silently. Just as praying only with one's eyes, without saying the words, does not qualify as prayer, likewise, learning Torah without saying the words does not constitute "learning" as far as the Birkot Ha'Torah requirement is concerned. The Shulhan Aruch rules accordingly. The Vilna Gaon (Rav Eliyahu of Vilna, 1720-1797), however, disagrees. He notes the verse in which G-d commands, "Ve'hagita Bo Yomam Va'layla" (Yehoshua 1:8), that we must study Torah day and night. The word "Hagita," the Gaon asserts, refers to unspoken thoughts, as in the expression, "Hegyon Libi" ("the stirrings of my heart" – Tehillim 19:15), and thus the Misva of Torah study is fulfilled even through silent learning. The Nishmat Adam (Rav Abraham Danzig of Vilna, 1748-1820) refuted this proof, pointing to the text of Birkot Ha'Torah, which mentions "words of Torah" ("Dibreh Torah"), implying that this refers specifically to spoken words (as "Dibur" means "speech"). Moreover, the Nishmat Adam cites several instances where the word "Hegyon" clearly refers to speech, and not to silent thought, such as "U'lshoni Tehegeh Sidkecha" (Tehillim 35:28), "Pi Sadik Yehegeh Hochma" (Tehillim 37:30), and "Lo Yehegu Bi'gronam" (Tehillim 115:7). (The Vilna Gaon would likely respond that "Hegyon" refers to both speech and silent thoughts, and thus both fall under the command of "Ve'hagita" and require Birkot Ha'Torah.) The Nishmat Adam further notes that the Gemara (Berachot 21a) cites as the source of the Birkot Ha'Torah obligation the verse in Debarim (32:3), "Ki Shem Hashem Ekra Habu Godel L'Elokenu" – "When I call the Name of G-d, express praise to our G-d." This verse speaks of reciting a Beracha when one "calls the Name of G-d," suggesting that this applies only to verbally articulating the words of Torah. The majority of Poskim follow the view of the Shulhan Aruch, that Birkot Ha'Torah is not required before silent Torah study. These include the Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909) and Hacham Ovadia Yosef. (Moreover, there is considerable discussion among later Poskim as to whether the Vilna Gaon truly held the stringent position that even thinking Torah requires Birkot Ha'Torah, or only considered this possibility.) Therefore, one who wishes to silently think about Torah in the middle of the night, or in the morning before reciting Birkot Ha'Torah, may do so.

   In this episode, we look at one of the most puzzling stories of Bayis Shani, the story of Sukkos. The possuk seems to imply that this was the first time they kept Sukkos since Yehoshua. How do we understand this?   We also look at the basic dynamics of the times of Moshiach. How does the dynamic between Israel and the other nations change? And similarly we discuss the Ingathering of the Exiles.        This week's episode is dedicated לרפואה השלימה לשרה פעשא בת יפה אסתר by her family  Nach Yomi: Join R' Wittenstein's Nach Yomi on WhatsApp. We learn a perek a day five days a week, with a nine minute shiur covering the key issues.
