Today’s Daf Yomi Question:

The Mishna teaches that one should not begin a wedding meal or conduct Din prior to Mincha, lest he come to perhaps miss the Tefillah.  We learn elsewhere (Shabbos 10a) that conducting a Din is a Mitzvah, as certainly is attending a wedding.  Why should one not begin the Mitzvah at hand, even if it may lead to forfeiting a later Mitzvah – since we know that one who is involved in a Mitzvah is exempt from doing another?

Today’s Daf Yomi Question:

The Gemara initially thought that Rav Yehuda requires four mechitzos for Reshus Hayachid.  If so how can one carry in a Mavoi that only employs a Korah (which is not considered a fourth mechitza)?

Today’s Daf Yomi Question:

We learn elsewhere that a city’s communal needs are the Chacham’s responsibility.  Why didn’t the Eruv (in Abaye and Rabba’s mavoi) fall into this category?

Today’s Daf Yomi Question:

Beis Hillel allow Bittul on Shabbos itself, since it is merely a ‘Siluk’ (abdication) that does not involve acquisition or Kinyan.  But how are the other Chatzer-members allowed to acquire the usage rights to his property on Shabbos?
