Purim 2026 YCQ - Feb 24, 2026 - Why does the megilla defile one's hands? How do the rabbis control what becomes holy? If Bnei Yisrael said na'aseh v'nishma, why did Hashem put a mountain over their heads? Did Hashem teach every law to Moshe? Does a drasha apply retroactively? Is the megilla a egeres or a sefer? Can women write a mezuza? Does one fulfil mezuza, if the gentile painter replaces it on the doorpost? What is the sefer habris? Can one fulfil reading the megilla, if it is written together with the four other megilas? How do the neviim differ from the kesuvim? Why are there pasukim with a keri and kesiv? How are the ten sons of Haman written? Why do all say the ten sons of Haman by themselves? In a leap year, should one have a seuda in Adar Rishon? How do the people who learn mishnayos differ from those who learn gemara? When should the seuda begin and end? Is Purim simply a Jewish Halloween?
