Rabbi Gershon West: Brachos 48B to 49A: Tanu Rabanan Minayin LiBirchas Hamazon Min HaTorah… (11/27/14)
[jwplayer mediaid=”3947″]
Begin on 48b, Rebbi omer, 21 lines before the end of the amud. Learn until the two dots on 49a, 16 lines down from the top. The gemara says that saying bris and torah in the second bracha of benching is required. If one forgets bris and torah, is he required to repeat benching? See Biur Halacha siman 187 sif 3 dh machzirin. See also Ritva here on 49a dh vehamilah that discusses this. If one finished the second bracha of benching without bris and torah and realized his mistake before beginning the next bracha, what should he do now? See Shaar Hatzion on the bottom of the Mishna Brura siman 187 sk 8. Is there room to take issue with his proof from yaleh veyavoh?

Very quickly review .משנה כב and :גמרא כב until first set of two dots.
The ראשונים seem to give an entirely different reason then the גמרא
why we only give 39 lashes when the תורה says 40 (See ריטב”א , and רמב”ם ה’ סנהדרין י”ז,א )
Questions:
-
How can they give a different reason then the גמרא?
-
What is a נפקא מיניה between the explanations? (See “ערוך לנר “בצרו )
-
Why does רש”י דברים כ”ה,ג give a different explanation then the גמרא ?
Rabbi Gershon West: Brachos 48B: Amar Rav Nachman Moshe Tikein LiYisrael Birchas Hazan… (11/25/14)

Begin on 48b, amar Rav Nachman, 7 lines from the top of the amud. Learn the gemara until the two dots 3 lines from the bottom. See carefully Rashi dh ubeshabbos and tosfos dh maschil. See Rif on 35b beginning from the first wide line amar Rav Nachman until tanya on the third line from the bottom that argues on this Rashi regarding what the addition is for Shabbos. See also Rambam hilchos berachos perek 2 halacha 5 that does not say like the Rif. See Mishnah Berurah siman 188 sif 4 to see how we pasken on this. Regarding the gemara that learns Birchas Hatorah out of a kal vechomer, does this mean that birchas hatorah is a bracha mideoraysah? See Maharsha in chidushei aggados dh kal vechomer (ko”ch).
