Shabbos 2 - What is carrying on shabbos and scenarios where 2 is 4
1. The melocho of הוצאה
From the opening Mishna’s eight cases of passing an object between the ba’al habayis standing in
his reshus hayachid (private domain) and the poor person standing in reshus harabim (public
domain) we learn:
a. One has only transgressed m’doraysa the melocho of hotza’ah (transferring) if he does the act of
lifting )עקירה)the object from its state of rest in one domain as well as the act of placing it down
(הנחה (in another domain.
b. The Rabbis forbid one from doing one of the acts of עקירה or הנחה lest one come to do both
elements of the transfer.
2. הכנסה) Bringing in)
Rav Ashi teaches that the Mishna’s usage of the term הוצאה) taking out) also refers to הכנסה
(bringing in), since the Mishna includes cases of bringing in as examples of הוצאה .
The Gemara further clarifies that the Tanna refers to any removal of an object from its place as an
act of “taking out.”
3. Domains
Rava said the when the Tanna uses the word יציאות) transfers) in the Mishna he is referring to
domains. Therefore, the Mishna is understood to mean that there are two domains where one is
prohibited to commit four acts of transferring.
Siman – House
The strange house, where the owner kept passing objects back and forth to a poor person standing
outside, featured an exit sign over the entrance and a welcome sign to the Home of Two Domains.

Brachos 64 - Don't force the moment, How to enjoy the Devine Presence, Biyun vs bekiyus, Go to Peace
When the Rabbis in Bavel were looking for new leadership in the academy they asked the Rabbis
in Eretz Yisroel which type of leader Is preferred, a “Sinai” (סיני (who has a lot of breadth in
learning or one who uproots mountains (הרים עוקר (with his sharp analysis? The choice was
between Rav Yosef who was a סיני and Rabba who was the הרים עוקר .
The Rabbis answered that the סיני takes precedence because his encyclopedic knowledge will
enable him to easily discover the solution to most problems. Rav Yosef in the end did not accept
the position as the Gemara explains and only became head of the academy twenty-two years
later after Rabbah’s death.
ילכו מחיל אל חיל .2
R’ Levi bar Chiya said that one who leaves the beis haknesses and immediately enters the beis
hamidrash to learn will merit to greet the face of the Shechinah as its says, חיל אל מחיל ילכו"
– "בציון אלקים אל יראה Go from multitude to multitude, appear before Hashem in Tziyon. The
multitudes are referring to those gathered in shuls and those gathered in batei midrashim.
Rav Chiya bar Ashi said in the name of Rav that the passuk is referring to talmidei chochomim
have no rest in Olam Hazeh or Olam Habah. The multitudes are referring to the batei midrashim
in Olam Habah where talmidei chochomin will continue to climb from one level to the next
forever increasing their understanding.
3. Talmidei chochomim bring shalom
R’ Elazar said in the name of R’ Chanina: Talmidei chochomim increase the peace in the world as
it says, בניך שלום ורב' ה למודי בניך וכל – And all your sons will be disciples of Hashem, and
abundant will be the peace of your sons. Do not read it as “your sons” )בניך )but “your builders”
)בוניך .)The passuk is teaching that it is the talmidei chochomim that build the world with their
Torah which results in peace in the world.
Siman – סוד - Secret
The Daf Yomi learners secretly reviewed their encyclopedic knowledge of Masechta Berachos as
they left the beis haknesses and immediately entered the beis hamidrash to learn, going from one
level to the next as they learned from talmidei chochomim who bring peace to the world.

Brachos 63 -Eis Laasos Lhashem, when no man, be a man
1. Small but fundamental passuk
Bar Kapppara asked the following question: What is a small passuk upon which all of the
fundamentals of the Torah depend? He answered:
ארחתך יישר והוא דעהו דרכך בכל –In all your ways you must know Him, and He will straighten
your paths.
Rava explained that “In all your ways” includes even one engaged in a transgression. This
passuk teaches that there are times when Hashem’s honor demands that one perform a
transgression.
- (An example of this is when Eliyahu Hanavi brought offerings outside the Beis Hamikdash
on Har HaCarmel in the incident with the prophets of Ba’al even though sacrificing
outside of the Beis haMikdash is a Torah prohibition).
2. Receiving Torah daily
It was taught in a Baraisa that when the Rabbis entered Kerem beYavneh they each opened up
their derasha with words in honor of their hosts that housed them )אכסניא בכבוד פותחין .)
Rebbe Yehuda further opened up his derasha focusing on honoring those who learn Torah
with the following passuk, “לעם נהיית הזה היום ישראל ושמע הסכת – “Pay heed and listen,
Yisroel, on this day you became a nation.”
How does one make sense of this passuk that implies that that the Torah was given on that
day, when in fact it was given Torah forty years earlier?
Rebbe Yehuda answers that the passuk is coming to teach you that on each an every day the
Torah should be as dear to those that study it as on the day it was given on Har Sinai.
3. Learning with others
The Gemara says that the word "הסכת"teaches – בתורה ועסקו כתות כתות עשו –that one
must form groups (asu kitos) and engage in Torah learning because the Torah is only acquired
through learning with others.
This is in accordance with Rebbe Yossi b’Rebbe Chaninah who said:
1. There will be as sword against those who sit alone and learn Torah.
2. They will become foolish and make mistakes in judgment
3. They will also come to sin.
Siman – Boys on Segways
The Yeshiva Ketana boys sped to the Beis Midrash on their Segways taking every type of straight path,
eager to learn Torah as if it was just given that day and making sure to get the most by learning in
