Review the “גמרא דף ז. “מ”מ קשיא until the two dots on דף ז 

Clarify when keeping two chumras is considered foolish. 

Learn “תוס’ דף ו: “ומי

According to the conclusion of the Gemara: When is a person considered a Rasha for following the leniencies of two different opinions? (two reasons of the Gemara)

See גמרא ע”ז דף ז. “ת”ר הנשאל  (twelve lines from bottom of Amud) until “ת”ר ” (four lines from the bottom) which brings the rule ספק דאורייתא לחומרא ספק דרבנן לקולא.

https://hebrewbooks.org/shas.aspx?mesechta=27&daf=7&format=pdf

Major Questions:

Based on the above rule according to the first explanation of our Gemara why before the בת קול ruled the halacha like beis hillel was it left to the volition of the individual to decide to follow beis hillel or beis shamai. Why were they not bound by the rule ספק דאורייתא לחומרא ספק דרבנן לקולא ?

According to Rav Shizbi explanation one can not follow two chumrahs of two different opinions if  they are סתרן אהדדי. Based on the rule of ספק דאורייתא לחומרא I should be obligated to follow the stringent opinion in both cases? 

See רשב”א חולין דף מד. “והא

See חזון איש עירובין דף ז for a different approach

Review “תוס’ דף ו: “כאן 

Clarify the two reasons Tosfos gives as to why the Chachamim were allowed to ignore the בת קול in the episode related in גמרא בבא מציעא דף נט עמוד ב?

Questions:

What’s the nafka minah between these two reasons?

Why did the Bas Kol say to follow Rebbe Eliezer if that was not the Halacha? 

See רב ניסן גאון on the side of the גמרא ברכות דף יט עמוד א

https://hebrewbooks.org/shas.aspx?mesechta=1&daf=19&format=pdf

According to the second explanation of Tosfos, we do not rule like a Bas Kol. Why do we follow the Bas Kol that said the halacha is like Beis Hillel? 

Based on the conclusion of Tosfos, how many opinions are there in regards to following a Bas Kol? (list the opinions)
