Gefet: Gemara, Perushim and Tosfot
An in-depth (Iyun) Gemara shiur with Rabbanit Yael Shimoni and Shalhevet Schwartz (Episode 98)
The Menorah of the Mikdash — a symbol of wisdom — touches on the mystery of wisdom of the Sanhedrin. Rav says that only one who is able, via Biblical hermeneutics, to render a sheretz pure is wise enough to sit on the Sanhedrin. Rabbeinu Tam asks: what is the point of this apparently futile “wisdom”? Join us as we see the ways the rishonim and acharonim address this question and the conclusions they reach about the nature of the Torah’s justice system.
Sanhedrin 20
Gefet with Rabbanit Yael Shimoni and Shalhevet Schwartz is in collaboration with Yeshivat Drisha
