    name your favorite daf

    mesechta

    sugya

    in honor of the siyum hashas

    P.S “all of it” “every daf” “first daf because that’s the only one i have ever learned” etc doesn’t contribute to the thread much

    I think it’s Tamid 21. It’s the story with Alexander the Great that hints to the fact that the entrances to both Gan Eden and Gehinnom are in the jungles of the Congo.

    Shlishi: It doesn’t. It gives a description that would fit with that though. Look it up. I think I got the Daf right. I’m not off buy more than a few Blatt if I’m wrong.

    Jewishness you cannot start a thread and then tell people that certain responses are not proper sorry a thread has a mind of its own and cannot be contained.

    Yekke: Isn’t Birchas Chassanim 7a or 8a?

    Sam4: Thanks for the right Daf. There is no 21 in Tamid, is there? I think my mind was thinking 31.

    Sam2: Birchas chassanim is 7b-8a. What happened to “off by ten blatt like clockwork”? 🙂

    Sam2: correct there is no 21.

    The whole Perek Hachelek is amazing.

    Itche: It’s 1, not 10. and it’s 3-5 in certain parts of the longer Masechtos. I meant 31, not 21, which puts me off by my usual 1. 🙂 And I didn’t say like clockwork, did I? Because it’s not quite always.

    As I’ve said elsewhere – Pesachim 49b. It talks about stuff like killing trolls.

    Also, Niddah 30b, because it says there that the chachamim used the scientific studies of their contemporaries to argue against a drasha.

    Yitay: And you like that Amud even more now that you’ve met me, don’t you? It might not be my favorite Daf, but that Ben Yehoyada is my favorite Mareh Makom.

    Oh, and Apikorsus! (I know someone else whose favorite Amud is Niddah 30b but not for that part; for the famous Midrash. Unless that Midrash is on 31b…)
