You Are Above Nature I Rav David Yisrael Kalmus

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – An introduction to the Rabbi’s siyum on Mesechet Shabbat – the Jewish people are above nature. The first example of Avraham Avinu is shown when Hashem takes him out of nature to see how Hashem is large and in charge every moment of the day. This affects us today whether we know it or not – but if we know it by communing with Hashem regularly anything can change at any time for the better.

Talmud: Bava Batra 14

Rabbi Avraham Meyer Zajac – Shares at the beginning of today’s Daf Yomi about the reason the Sefer Torah has two separate wood poles. The first is practical since it allows us to easily dilineate where we left off – so we don’t have to roll up and re-roll everytime we read the Torah. The second is discussed in Kabbalah in several different interations: 1. That it’s similar to the two Keruvium in the Beis Hamidash and Hashem’s presence spoke in the middle of them. 2. The Kohanim bless with two hands spread out and speak in the middle. 3. The ten sefirot are depicted in three columns – with one of the columns in the center. Therefore, we have two wood poles and say words of the Torah reading in the middle of them.

Masechet Nedarim: DaF 63 – מסכת נדרים: דף ס”ג

Adar I and Adar IIאֲדָר רִאשׁוֹן וְאֲדָר שֵׁנִי
There are years during which there are two months of Adar, i.e., Adar I and Adar II. These years are known as leap years: years in which there are 13 months and not 12 months, as is the case in a usual year. Regarding a child born in the month of Adar of a regular year, and whose Bar Mitzvah takes place in a leap year, when would we celebrate that young man’s Bar Mitzvah — during בְּשמחָה Adar I or Adar II? The answer is: Adar II! Likewise, the mitzvah of reading Megillat Esther and all the mitzvot of Purim day are performed during Adar II. However, if a boy was born in Adar I during a leap year, and the year of his Bar Mitzvah is also a leap year, that boy would become Bar Mitzvah during Adar I. 
יֶשְׁנָן שָׁנִים שֶׁבָּהֶן יֵשׁ שְׁנֵי חוֹדְשֵׁי אֲדָר. אֲדָר רִאשׁוֹן וַאֲדָר שֵׁנִי. שָׁנִים אֵלּוּ נִקְרָאוֹת שָׁנִים מְעוּבָּרוֹת, שֶׁיֵּשׁ בָּהֶן שְׁלוֹשָׁה עָשָׂר חוֹדָשִׁים וְלֹא שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר חוֹדָשִׁים כִּבְשָׁנָה רְגִילָה. יֶלֶד שֶׁנּוֹלַד בְּחוֹדֶשׁ אֲדָר בְּשָׁנָה רְגִילָה, וּבַר הַמִּצְוָה שֶׁלּוֹ חָל בְּשָׁנָה מְעוּבֶּרֶת, מָתַי חוֹגְגִים לוֹ “בַּר מִצְוָה”-  בַּאֲדָר רִאשׁוֹן אוֹ בְּאֲדָר שֵׁנִי? הַתְּשׁוּבָה הִיא: בְּאֲדָר שֵׁנִי! גַּם אֶת מִצְוַת קְרִיאַת מְגִילַּת אֶסְתֵּר וְאֶת כָּל מִצְווֹת יוֹם הַפּוּרִים מְקַיְּמִים בְּאֲדָר שֵׁנִי. אֲבָל אִם הוּא נוֹלַד בְּשָׁנָה מְעוּבֶּרֶת בְּאֲדָר א’ וּשְׁנַת בַּר הַמִּצְוָה שֶׁלּוֹ הִיא גַּם כֵּן בְּשָׁנָה מְעוּבֶּרֶת, הוּא נִהְיֶה בַּר מִצְוָה בְּאֲדָר א’.

Talmud Israeli Daf Yomi for Us — Masechet Nedarim 19–25

Rabbi Evan Hoffman – In this Daf Yomi (daily Talmud page learning) summary Rabbi Hoffman shares about the topic of vows and technically how they annulled both for past unfulfilled and for those vows that might be unintentionally made and how Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur play a significant role in this. There are also several other topics discussed as well.

Remarks from Siyyum on Masechet Makkot

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – This video is Rabbi Kalmus Siyyum which is a celebration for a completion of learning a tractate of Talmud (which could take months of intense learning). It usually includes reciting the last couple verses in the Talmud section and expounding upon it.

Personal Thoughts – The video has some very powerful global ideas about the concept that we have to fall (sometimes quite hard) before we rise – that the fall itself predicts the rise (so its actually a positive). My experience in my own life reflects this concept so I really identified strongly with his Siyyum talk.
