CHAZARAH - Chullin Daf 61 | "Nothing but the Daf" with R' Eli Stefansky

Good morning. We have continuing with of the sim of birds. Easy sug. Here we go. I think I might have skipped some lines because that is one of the problems of giving without and all the people. So let's just do a few lines over here that we might have missed. Smack in the middle of it's an opportunity to talk about a tremendous that I think the Gar is saying over here had a garden. He threw some seeds in there and nothing grew. So he started ding. The rain came and it grew. That's what's it seems like says that although the grasses grew on the third day of briam, we didn't see it until Friday because other marishian had a ding for it. It's there. It's a it's a it's a new look. It's not the that you dive in and then makes it grow. The is it grows. It's 50% there. That final push out. You need a you need a ding form wants to hear you dive in. Hem is the is there. It's at your doorstep. You just have to open the door. How do you open the door? You have to dive in. It's there. It's p there. It's smish touching it. Just you got to find you got to you got to find it. How? By >> this we did. Okay. So now we're going to skip all the way to remind that when it comes to when it comes to no one can claim that they understand what's going on. In fact, there are a lot of things, some things you might understand. There are things there are lines that are just what what's going on. It just doesn't make sense. It's not common sense. It's like you you could tell that there's something hidden over here. This might be one of them. Literally some you should burn them. It's it's telling you you would think you would think that there's some sukim that are just don't make any sense that there why are they in the and then if you get a peak and you understand real you you get to see why this pic is super super important and the gar goes on to give examples but the the the the lush is a really strong lion we should burn them they they just they're extra they make no sense burn the So here you have a sitting where do they live who in the world cares happened thousands of years ago and this and this group of they live next to here and so if you don't know you don't have the gam it seems completely extra burn it he says no it's super important If you remember the famous I'm making you swear that you're not going to harm me, my my grandchildren, my great-grandchild, kids, sir, you're never going to harm me and the So now we have a problem, but we need a solution to the problem. Every problem has a solution. How in the world are going to capture depim and take over is when promised him he's not going to touch him and his and his future generations. So what do you know what it won't be the Jews problem? It'll be the problem. Let the knock out the aim people which are the ah once the aim are in place and where the how do we know they're in place? They're already sitting there all the way to Gaza laz. fine for the the the for the yidden to go and kill the the theft people. That's fine. Now similarly similarly we say what's the difference? similar. Don't give any to don't fight with you have to have therefore you don't do the job we'll have take care of then will come and take away from and that's what says they were able to get to to do the job with may through you let do the dirty work then you go and you knock out done another super interesting that you think that you have to get rid of says in what's going on here the are going to call the talking about the the mountain that has snow on it they're going to call it near these are actually mountains in our scroll. So he says we're four lines from the bottom. Each one of these people went and created a giant city for himself and he called it after the names of the mountains and I might have skipped this line in Hebrew. I don't remember saying it anymore. So you should know that the the use our names they love them and they they mimic the names for their their cities as well. Similarly, so you think if I asked you why in the world take the mitz and move them to different cities. If you lived in Taba, he moved you to what's the >> Cairo. Cairo. Very good. Cairo is the And if you lived in Cairo to sh Why? Why? So I think the simple would be to show who's the ruler. I I'm in control. I'm going to tell you exactly where to live. You live here, you live there. The says, "No, there's something deeper here." He was thinking about his brothers. How can I make it better for another Yid? Ah, it's always think think about the other. They shouldn't say, "Hey, Jew, go back to where you came from. You also go back to where you came from. You used to be in Cairo. What are you doing here?" Big. So, everybody's mixed up. You go to this, you go this, everybody will be okay with the Jews. Now, we're going into the suga of the birds. Let me tell you this whole suga it's actually very very short even I'm saying alhammed is less than a regular together but the idea is also very short let me just tell you the whole daff there are four sim that we learned of that make a bird kosher and this those same four simonyim are in the eagle but in reverse. Make a bird tra. What are they? A kosher bird has a zeppek. It's the first bag that the food goes into. It has a cir which we call like a pipic, a popic, uh a gizzard. And I'm going to show you a video, a galica video that the way the made it is that it needs to grind up the food and it doesn't have good grinders. So, they eat pebbles, sharp stones. And when you open up a gizzard, and I'm going to show you, the guy opens it up, hundreds of small sharp pebbles, and that grinds up the food. The gizzard goes like this, you know, and the pebbles push, and it's great. And you could eat the gizzard. So, the gizzard has a little layer in it that peels off super easy. Showed it yesterday, the yellow. And the guy's going to do it on the video. So, if it peels off easy, sim that it's kosher. It also has an extra finger in the back. Kosher bird and it also eats directly from the floor. You see pigeons, they peck on the floor. Whereas a parrot could also but we saw the parrot eating uh a eagle they use their head they use their foot they eat. That's one shot in Dus. All the gar is going to tell us is a phenomenal that in order for a bird to be kosher. It has to have one out of these four things. Doesn't have to have four. Doesn't have to have two. One. If it has a zeppic kosher. If it has extra finger kosher. Now think about it. I didn't look at it. But mama's tens of thousands of species of birds. Maybe hundreds of thousands. Probably hundreds of thousands. Right? So only 24 birds in the entire world are tra 24 birds in the entire world are tra those are the birds that brought out in the tire just what when it comes to birds the tells us whereas animals we don't have this but in birds you have to have a messy but if you know for a fact it's not one of those 24 birds how how do you know what the 24 birds are nobody knows what a paris and aa really are. So, you're not really going to know. But if you know, then you could actually eat all these different birds flying around there. There's many birds. But all it needs is one sim in kosher, not four. So that's the whole suggest the only the the question in the suggest it has four no good. The point is even one no good is a and the Torah talks about birds that have one that is not they have three kosher but one good it's one of the 24 birds so that's why it's we really have to understand all that's all the way at the end of the so why does the say that a that a kosher bird has four the doesn't say it say it's four why ah I forgot to show the the Israelis let me show it now so I don't forget Yeah. Wow. What I wanted to show is the word over here. You guys see the word separ >> the second letter of every word. >> Very. >> Yeah. No. No. You should have taken out the the V over there. Says we learned in the Mishna that the bird the the animals we know are Malagra Mafitz Parisat and the Tyra. But the of a bird that's not mentioned anywhere second line in the continues and then it goes on to say great. So is asking why do you say that there's no simony of the bird? We do have the sim of the bird. So what's a neer? So in common Hebrew although as an American I thought always meant an eagle but in common Hebrew neer is a vulture. But fascinating that I'll just tell you it's 10 lines from the bottom. 2 4 6 8 10 11 lines from the bottom. He says eagle. So Tyus agrees that it might be an eagle. Believes you know the is like a beautiful bald American bald eagle. It might be that ugly. What's special about the It doesn't have a extra finger in the back and it doesn't have a zap and it doesn't peel. So all these, take a look at this stuff. First of all, let's see. >> All right. This is how we process a turkey gizzard. It's exactly the same as a chicken gurkey. We take a really sharp knife. We cut around the edge of the gizzard. It has some fat on it. It's a little harder to get through. Cut all the way around. Keep spinning the gizzard as you're doing it. Once you cut all the way around, you can open it up and you can start seeing the rocks and whatnot in there. You just open it, pull, pull. And there you can see all the grass, all the rocks, everything in there. And then what you're going to do is you're going to come over here and you'll see where the white meets the yellow. And you'll just grab it and you'll peel it. And you keep peeling. It's a little hard. It's best to keep these in the refrigerator overnight to let them cool down. And it's much easier to peel it at that point. So yeah, you just keep peeling. Keep peeling. >> That's nicro. >> And then you wash it and you have an edible gizard. >> Beautiful, huh? >> Very cool. >> Very cool. Those little rocks, sharp pointy ones. Galdi. So that's nicl. Now what does durus mean? So we learn durus according to rashi means that it it it eats its food with its hand. This rashy here eats the food with its hand. There's another rashy that says that he stands on it. He makes sure it doesn't fly fly away. Let's say or run away and he eats the food. And then you have tus that holds that he eats the food while it's still alive. Those are the three. We're going with Rashi right now that he he's eating the food. Great. He eats it with his hand. We had this extra according to Rashi means the one on the bottom says you see chickens have that so therefore he says it's up there up above the question is oh so over here we have the sim here's the four so why are you telling me that the birds don't have sim if you look at the in the what's the says and it says what okay he's not saying much I think he's just explaining that you're right there are forc that's only said it okay so then says what I was telling you before Any bird that has one sim provided that you know it's not the other 23 birds. We know what a neure is. We know okay that's one but provided you know the other 23 bird it's not one of those and it has one sim that is let's say it has a it has a gizzard that appeals easy. Why? because it's not similar to the to the to the eagle or to the to the vulture which doesn't have any who do eagle doesn't have any of them so you're not allowed to eat them and here if it even has just one so you're allowed to eat it oh so now we just have to understand Why we need? Why we need? Why we need? Why we need all these things? Why is going to make a little seder here? Let's learn from the kosher birds, the pigeons. They have all four. They have a zep. They have extra finger. They have a gizzard that peels easily. And they're not dy. So maybe in order to be kosher, you need all four. You just established that one out of the four is enough to make a kosher maybe four like a pigeon. By the way, the the the guys that live on, they only eat pigeon. They don't they won't eat chicken because of this. That's what's in the that's it. That's all they eat. They don't eat uh doesn't say in the turkey. It doesn't say chicken. So, they don't eat it as sorry. says that there's another there's 24 birds total says that are now 20 out of the 24 have three simon of castras three that are kosher. So why would the T say that they're Tom? If even one makes a T. So certainly if they have three or four I mean the the fact that the Tyra says that these birds are to because typically they're not. It's only these birds that are any bird that's similar to them that has one kosher sim is automatically. That's why the Torah said that these are so learn from these 24 birds and not from the from the pigeons. In other words, even if you have one sim or three simon of kashras, you still it's still you have three sim of and you don't eat. So anything has three of is not good enough. If you need four of the and certainly if it only has two of one of says a raven which has a extra finger and a zeppek which has two simash why is it have to say it why do you need to tell me that if has two two simashas it's even if it has three simonas it's strafe how This is Oh, so now hold on a second. So why don't we learn from two of is not enough. Let me just see. Hold on, Mark. One second. Let's do this for a sec. A eagle has zero simony castras. Oso has three simony castras. Oh, maybe not. Hold on one second. Let's check it out. No, they only have one peris mark. We have to change per to one from three to one. Andrev has two that for sure that straight out has two and has one. Are you able to change that please? A lot of fixing today. Okay. That has one. If the raven here's the raven, right? The raven's on the screen. Let's see. Let's see. If the the raven which has two good things going for him, you're not allowed to eat it. So certainly the paris that only has one good thing going for one ker of course you can't eat it. So why does the say learn from what if it has one sim no good so then why did the talk about an eagle why the eagle let's go back to that picture eagle has zero going for it if the paras has one good thing going for it you're not allowed to eat it so the neesher that has zero good for it. Nothing. Doesn't have one single mil. So of course he can't eat it. So why talk about So here's theite again. The only thing you're not allowed to eat is something that doesn't have any money like an we learned from the eagle that if it has one good thing going for you allow to eat it those are special theor said 24 birds out of the entire bria which is in the thousands and thousands. So this is I'm telling you this simple gmorra if you confuse back forth it's it's a simple it comes out because the has zero going for it. So if you have one thing going for it it's okay. The problem is but without the you learn from the that what they have one thing going for it right has one and nevertheless it's and I would have learned from it ask the classic if the says one time don't need a paris and paris has one thing going for it so you know from there if the would have stopped this I would learn for for the whole Tyra for all the birds, all 10,000. If you have one thing going for it, you're like a paras. Don't eat it. But then the Tory says again, don't eat. And what is he has one thing going for it? So that's then the Torah said it twice. Once the Torah says the same thing twice, you can't learn out for anything else. Oh. So, so we have the problem. We have a Paris is one. Anytime you have tuk, you can't learn anything out of it. says, "Yes, each one has one thing that goes that's good for it, but it's different. There are two different ones. Let's say the Paris has extra finger, but has a zeppek." So, they're different. It's not But doesn't work. So since there's 24 birds, at least two of them are going to have the same thing. They're gonna have the one thing that's closure for them. We have the problem that you have two birds that have the same same thing the same that's kosher and can't learn from say there's 24 birds total and we know that there's four that we establish for there's three that all the birds have 20 out of the 24 have the same exact three things going for them. 20 birds have three simony castras and the raven only has two going for it. And the and the only have one thing going for it from all 24 birds. And what about the zero going for it? So yeah, that's all. Nasher has zero going for it. Paris has one thing going for it. Has two things going for it. And 20 birds have three things going for it. Oh, so now that all all 20 birds have the same thing going for it, but it's the same one thing that it's going for all 20 birds. And then you have the have different things going for it. One, but different maybe you should learn from the one sim is not enough. It's not kosher. This is the whole here. Wrap it up. That's why the Torah says an eagle since zero going for it. That's four bad things, zero good things. So that's why you can't eat it. And if you have any bird out of the 10,000 species, and I'm sure there's subspecies and yeah, species. Imagine a parrot is a species. How many parrots are there? thousands. I'm sure there's thousands. But anyways, whatever it is, from the 10,000 species, you could eat every single one besides 24. If it has one of it as the bomb question even mention the pigeon all I care is one of just say as long as it's not like the eagle then you eat it. carbon. It's only to tell us that you have to for a carbon can only use a yina or bent. Have a wonderful day. >> Merit the of spreading Torah throughout the world.
