In #dafyomi Menahot 86 whose property does the Torah care about conserving? The Jews' or the Temple's? בדף יומי מנחות פ"ו, על רכוש של מי חסה התורה? על רכושם של יהודים או על הרכוש של בית המקדש?

Shalom friends!
Bread.
Yes, bread! In the middle of #Passover!? Rude. And ironic timing, but stay with me. Let’s follow the #talmud’s breadcrumbs to…a wheat field, some magicians, and a wise woman.

#dafyomi Menahot 85b: a (Mediterranean) diet with olive oil promotes wisdom. דף יומי מנחות פ"ה:ב: תזונה (ים תיכוני) עם שמן זית מקדמת חוכמה.

Midrash halakha is not necessarily from Sinai. In #dafyomi Menahot 84b R. Elazar received his midrash in a dream. מדרש הלכה הוא לאו דווקא מסיני. בדף יומי מנחות פ"ד:ב רבי אלעזר קיבל את מדרשו בחלום.

#dafyomi Menahot 83a: another proof that midrash halakha is not deductive: "some derive it from here and some derive it from there". עוד הוכחה שמדרש הלכה אינו דדוקטיבי: "איכא דמייתי לה מהכא ואיכא דמייתי לה מהכא"

In #dafyomi Menahot 69a, why didn't they address Rami Bar Hama's question, about wheat and barley grains from animal droppings, via a scientific experiment, like they did for whether karamit can be leavened, at the beginning of Yerushalmi Hallah?

R. Yehuda b. Nehemia stumped R. Tarfon and his face brightened.

Interesting that RaMBaM's explanation, in Hilkhot T'midin Umusafin 7:11, for the date of the Omer and for the Omer being barley, differ from the explanations in #dafyomi Menahot 65b-66a (date) and in #dafyomi Menahot 68b (barley).

R. Yohanan b. Zakkai: Deut. 1:2, it's 11 days between Horev to Kadesh Barnea so why did it take 40 years?
Prattling Elder: You dismiss me w/this?
RYBZ: Foo! And will our Torah not be as worthy as your frivolous speech?

Baitusim would say Shavuot must always fall on a Sunday.
R. Yohanan b. Zakkai: Fools! What is your source.
Prattling Elder: Moses loved the Jewish people, he knew Shavuot was only one day, so he made Shavuot after Shabbat so Jews would enjoy themselves for 2 days

R. Yossi b. Avin: Non-essential mitzvot can prevent calamities. Waving (as part of sacrificial offerings) is not essential yet doing so prevents harmful winds and dews.

Didn’t expect the #talmudic tractate on meal offerings to feature so many deep, heart to heart convos between God and God’s besties, but here we are! First with Moses and now with Abraham.
