- [Avodah] The census numbers in bamidbar June 1, 2025. R' Marty Bluke asks two distinct questions, but both concern whether (and to what extent) the census numbers were rounded. His first question focuses on *all* the shevatim. Most of them seem to be rounded to the nearest hundred, while one lone shevet seems to be rounded to the nearest fifty. It is puzzling […]
- [Avodah] The census numbers in bamidbar May 31, 2025If you look at the numbers 12 of the 13 tribes end in 00 and the 13th Yehuda ends with 50. So the numbers seem to be clearly rounded and so says the Meshech Chochma. However it is strange that only one tribe is rounded to 50. If the Torah was rounding to the nearest […]

- [Avodah] moral frameworks May 28, 2025?This moral framework is also a casuistic (case-specific) judgment-based moral framework. I mean by this the following: Suppose you have adopted a specific moral theory and are now trying to apply it to a particular case. When you apply your theory to the particular case, the different moral appeals may each, taken alone, support different […]
- [Avodah] kol shehu May 28, 2025The gemara starting in beitza (16b) discusses eruv tavshilin requiring ?kol shehu? as a czait.
