Sukkah 21 - July 28, 19 Av

Daf Yomi for Women - Hadran - A podcast by Michelle Cohen Farber

Pictures Today’s daf is sponsored by Erin Piateski in honor of Jessica's wedding on Sunday. "Mazal tov Jessica and Harold!" The gemara brings the mishna from Ohalot Chapter 3 Mishna 7 regarding a debate between Rabbi Yehuda and the rabbis regarding the laws of impurity of a tent for a tent formed by nature. Rabbi Yehuda's opinion (that it does not have laws of tents regarding impurity) contradicts Rabbi Yehuda's opinion in the Mishna Para Chapter 3 Mishna 2 where the torse of an ox functions as a tent. The resolution of the contradiction raises a question on Rabbi Yehuda's opinion on our mishna that one can sleep under a bed in a sukkah. Several answers are brought and the gemara analyzes them. What exactly is the root of the debate between Rabbi Yehuda and the rabbis in the mishna? One who leans a sukkah of a bed - Rabbi YEhuda and the rabbis disagree about whether it works or not and on what does it depend.
