Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Gemara Shabbos: Starting Third Perek today יום שני Tu B’Av (08/19/24)
Mazel Tov on the siyum of the second Perek of Eruvin.
We are starting the third perek of Gemara Shabbos today.
The best method to learn the beginning of the third perek is to learn the first 2 1/2 blatt Gemara & Rashi in totality. Afterwards to start from the beginning of the Perek and learn the gemara again with the Rishonim.
There are 7 bochurim from Yeshiva Staten Island who are part of a Seed program in our Yeshiva. They are available to learn with you in the morning.
One of them will be giving my daily shiur at 12:15 learning through the Gemara with the chabura.

City Eruvin
Halacha question –
Do farms larger than a בית סאתים disqualify a city eruv?
Quickly review ביאור הלכה ס’ שנ”ח סע’ ט’ “אבל אם who brings a ת’ דבר שמואל for a new reason why a city eruv can include with קרפף inside of it.
What is the reason of the דבר שמואל that a קרפף inside a walled city will not disqualify the Eruv?

And Laws of an Eruv from Rabbi Francis & Rabbi Francis Chapter 9/II/2 who quotes a different explanation in the name of Hagaon Rabbi Moshe Feinstein.
What’s a halachik difference between the two reasons?

Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Gemara Eruvin: Second Perek, יום שלישי Av 2, Daf 26b (08/06/24)
Topic for this week:
City Eruvin
Halacha question –
Do parks or wooded areas larger that a בית סאתים disqualify a city eruv?
Yesterday we learnt the תוספת ישנים underneath “תוספת דף כג: “איכא and the רא”ש פרק ב’ ס’ ב “ומתוך פ’ רש”י (approximately 20 lines before end) that according to Rashi gardens only destroy דירה for a קרפף but not for a חצר
However the שולחן ערוך ס’ שנ”ח סע’ ט & י rules there is no difference.
Learn ביאור הלכה ס’ שנ”ח סע’ ט’ “אבל אם who brings a ת’ דבר שמואל for a new reason why a city eruv can include with קרפף inside of it.
Based on the above would a city eruv be permitted to include park or wooden area?
What is the reason the דבר שמואל that קרפף inside a walled city will not disqualify the Eruv?
See חכם צבי ס’ נט
And Laws of Eruvin from Rabbi Francis who quoted a different explanation in the name of Hagaon Rabbi Moshe Feinstein
Would a halachik wall made from צורת הפתח also be included in the chidush of the דבר שמואל?
