This week we will continue our discussion of tefillin, detailing the structure of the batim, placement and order of the parshiyot, black straps, proper positioning, and who is obligated, including whether the mitzvah applies at night or on Shabbat and Yom Tov. We will then learn about tzitzit, deriving the requirements for the number of strings, inclusion of techelet, proper tying, and which garments are obligated, including the parameters of wool and linen combinations. The section ends with an aggadic teaching highlighting the spiritual power of tzitzit to protect from sin and cultivate constant awareness of mitzvot.

This week we will learn about the laws of tefillin and mezuzah, deriving the requirement to write the four parshiyot of tefillin on parchment, in proper script, order, and placement. The Gemara analyzes details such as the order of the parshiyot, invalidating defects in writing, the shape of letters, and the requirement of complete writing. We will also learn about the form of the batim (boxes), the shin on the shel rosh, black straps, tying and positioning, and which arm and head placement fulfill the mitzvah.

Rabbi Saadia Gaon’s sefer Emunot V’Deot (Book of Beliefs and Opinions) innovated the genre of Jewish philosophy. Long before Rabbi Yehuda HaLevi and the Rambam, R. Saadia paved the road for viewing Jewish principles through a lens of classic Greek philosophy, the science of his time, and is justifiably where Jewish philosophy begins. Join ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rabbi Daniel Korobkin⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ as he explores this important, monumental work, tracing the differences in approach between R. Saadia and those who came after him.

This week, we will discuss the technical requirements of kemitza and the handling of the kometz, including what disqualifies it through improper placement, contact, or deviation from prescribed procedure. The Gemara analyzes vessels, measurements, and physical integrity of meal-offerings, clarifying when errors invalidate the korban and when they can be corrected. These dapim also further define which acts are indispensable avodah and which are secondary.
