January 08, 2025 Din & Daf: Can Power be Tamed by the Court with Dr. Elana Stein Hain
Din & Daf: Conceptual Analysis of Halakha Through Case Study with Dr. Elana Stein Hain
Can the Politically Powerful Truly Be Governed by Law? The Case of an Israelite King - סנהדרין יט.-:, מלך לא דן ולא דנין אותו
The function of a judicial system is to hold people accountable to the law. But can the courts accomplish this even when those who need to be held accountable have tremendous political power? The example raised in the Gemara is the king, but truly the question could be asked about the possibility of the court bowing to anyone with power…In this shiur, we will examine whether מלך לא דן ולא דנין אותו represents an ideal separation of powers or whether it is merely a capitulation to the impossibility of holding kings accountable for their actions.

Gefet- Gemara, Perushim, and Tosafot, an in-depth Iyun gemara shiur
The Menorah of the Mikdash -- a symbol of wisdom -- touches on the mystery of wisdom of the Sanhedrin. Rav says that only one who is able, via Biblical hermeneutics, to render a sheretz pure is wise enough to sit on the Sanhedrin. Rabbeinu Tam asks: what is the point of this apparently futile "wisdom"? Join us as we see the ways the rishonim and acharonim address this question and the conclusions they reach about the nature of the Torah's justice system.
