This week in #SefariaSummerSchool we’re taking a look at the saddest day on the Jewish calendar, Tisha B’Av or the “Ninth of Av”. With just a week to go until this major fasting holiday, learn why we “limit our rejoicing” here: https://t.co/hkFdLc4hQ6

@levidmorrow @MeirSimchah How David relates to them:
וַיִּשְׁלַ֤ח דָּוִד֙ מַלְאָכִ֔ים אֶל־אַנְשֵׁ֖י יָבֵ֣ישׁ גִּלְעָ֑ד וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵיהֶ֗ם בְּרֻכִ֤ים אַתֶּם֙ לה'
And David sent messengers to the men of Yavesh-gil῾ad, and said to them, Blessed are you of the Lord,

@levidmorrow @MeirSimchah The beginning of Shaul's malchut:
וַיַּ֗עַל נָחָשׁ֙ הָֽעַמּוֹנִ֔י וַיִּ֖חַן עַל־יָבֵ֣שׁ גִּלְעָ֑ד
https://t.co/cWhG05CI9F

The end:
וַיִּשְׁמְע֣וּ אֵלָ֔יו יֹשְׁבֵ֖י יָבֵ֣ישׁ גִּלְעָ֑ד אֵ֛ת אֲשֶׁר־עָשׂ֥וּ פְלִשְׁתִּ֖ים לְשָׁאֽוּל׃

Cherem is the opposite of pidyon.

Both are about if it belongs to you.

#DafYomi Gemara puts the two together:

Jewish law isn't moralism. Consider laws of vows. You could do this - but no one would advise you to.

Let's get this straight to prevent further confusion:

This Shabbos - This coming Shabbos
Next Shabbos - not this coming Shabbos, but the one after that.
In 2 Shabbosim - The third Shabbos from right now.

The Passing of a Gadol

When I studied in Shaalvim, Rav @ariwaxman sold copies of his uncle’s new book for ₪40.

I was lucky enough to buy a copy.

BD”E on the passing of Rav Nosson Kaminetsky zt”l who first showed me the ingredients for gadlus.

My favorite story in the book:
