Dina deMalkhuta Dina. The law of the State [lit. the kingdom] is the law. What are the legal and cultural implications of this law? Is it a law or a general principle? Is this an ideology that is new to the Sassanian/Babylonian context? Or, is this an older trend that is perhaps articulated here for the first time? All this in this week's daf.

This week's daf can be found:
1. Vilna page (Hebrew and Aramaic) from Hebrewbooks.org
2. Hebrew and English from Sefaria.org
3. Hebrew and Aramaic with many commentaries from Alhatorah.org
