Welcome to the Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Simeon Cohen looks at Masechet Beitza Daf 27.

This episode deals with the question of what to do if an animal dies on יום טוב. Can it be cut up? Can the carcass be moved? And to what degree are the answers to the questions contingent upon whether or not the animal was sick before the Festival began? This page asks some interesting questions which provide insight into how the rabbis thought about the significance of one’s psychological state on a Festival.

The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
