Daf Shvui/Weekly Daf: Give me forty minutes or so and I'll give you a daf or so
I know that all the cool kids are jumping on to the daf yomi bandwagon. However, if you are looking for something a bit more mellow, a bit more curated, less a part of the rough and tumble of the daf yomi speedway—I invite you to daf shvu'i, a weekly page of Talmud. In about 40-50 minutes you can learn a page of Talmud. No previous experience required.

And we are still grappling with the question of possession. How does one come to own something that cannot be moved? Why are the rabbis talking about enslaved women? What is the story with land that lies fallow? Do the fallow years count? All in this week's daf.
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
