So a legal discussion about where one can build a tannery in relation to a city leads, in the inevitable logic of the Talmud, to a discussion of astronomy and meteorology, and of course theology. Where is God? In what direction should one/must one pray?
So… join me in the "safer at home" bet midrash. Shelter in Torah for a bit.
This week's daf can be found:
1. Vilna page (hebrew and aramaic) from Hebrewbooks.org
2. Hebrew and English from Sefaria.org
3. Hebrew and Aramaic with many commentaries from Alhatorah.org
