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.

"Words cannot be bought with words." This is the principle that the Talmud uses to navigate the thorny issue of a secondary market in debt. Can you buy acquire something which is basically just words on a piece of paper? Well, probably, but how? and why?
In this week's daf.
This week's daf can be found in the following places:
1. Vilna page (Hebrew and Aramaic) from Hebrewbooks.org
