As for where it states what I said.
Meshes Peah.
As for “knowing the Torah” to fullfill it.
If you acknowledge that you must learn the Torah to know it then you acknowledge that without learning the Torah you do not know.
Results?
If someone who is not knowledgebale it Torah comes and states “these are Torah values” and another person who is knowledgable in Torah who actually sits and studies the Torah for much of the day, states that Torah values are not in line with what that person states it is logical to believe the Second person.
As for the “statement” made by Hillel to the mechutzaf.
Lets see.
Facts are the Torah Shel Ba’al Peh and Torah Shebiksav are huge (Tanach, Shisha Sidrei Mishna, Shas, Midrashim ect…) so how do we understand Hillel’s statement?
Is’nt Shammai’s statement more logical?
Of course I am not the first to raise this question the meforshim on that statement raise this question and explain exactly what Hillel meant Loo it up.
And thank you for providing a perfect example of why intensive Torah study with all commentaries is needed and one cannot really base their opinions on a few random unconnected statments that they heard here and there.
