Matmonim: Daf Yomi by Rabbi David Lapin ·

2025/05/27

Life is seldom black and white. Even in matters of moral values, there are times we need to prioritize one value over others.

Matmonim: Daf Yomi by Rabbi David Lapin ·

2025/05/19

The stakes in Halacha are high. The consequences of committing an aveira (wrongdoing), even in error, are serious. However, Halacha magnificently builds mechanisms to avoid people developing OCD over the fear of possibly having committed an aveira. Source Sheet

In the case of שגגת טומאת מקדש וקדשיו the un intentionality that triggers the obligation to bring a קרבן עולה ויורד, requires a measure of subconscious knowledge that the action was wrong. We explore the nature of subconscious knowledge. Source Sheet

Full awareness of what one is doing creates the conditions for a מזיד; anything less than full awareness already moves the dial in the direction of שוגג. The purpose of warning (התראה) is to raise awareness to the maximum level. Source Sheet
