Welcome to the Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Barry Chesler looks at Masechet Chagigah Daf 20.


We ask “can hullin, which is treated as if it were qodesh, become like qodesh and transmit impurity to other objects or people?” We then focus on the role of guarding in keeping objects ritually pure and some cases where objects become impure as a result of a break in the guarding. Concludision of chapter 2. Opening mishnah in chapter 3 about the stringencies of qodesh relative to t’rumah.


The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
