Pesachim 121

PESACHIM 120-121 (25-26 Kislev) - the Daf study material for the first day of Chanukah has been dedicated to the memory of Hagaon Rav Yisrael Zev Gustman ZaTZaL (author of "Kuntresei Shiurim"), whose Shiurim lit the eyes of many, by his students.

1) NETILAS YADAYIM FOR PIGUL AND NOSAR

(a) A series of disputes exist between R. Huna and R. Chisda regarding the source and application of this law.
1. One reports the reason to be suspicion and one reports the reason to be laziness (see below).
2. One reports the amount as a KaZayis, one KeBeitzah.
3. One taught (suspicion) regarding Pigul and one taught (laziness) regarding Nosar.
4. One taught (KaZayis) deriving from the prohibition of eating it, and one (KeBeitzah) deriving from the minimum amount of food subject to Tumah.
2) MISHNAH: THE BERACHAH OVER THE PESACH AND OTHER KORBANOS
(a) [R. Yishmael] The (unique) Berachah made over the Pesach exempts one from reciting a different Berachah over the other Korban.
(b) [R. Akiva] The Berachos do not exempt one another.
(c) We can attribute this dispute to another, regarding Zerikah and Shefichah.
1. [R. Yishmael] Zerikah is considered a subset of Shefichah, but Shefichah is not a subset of Zerikah.
2. [R. Akiva] The two pourings are not subsets of one another.

3) THE BERACHOS OVER PIDYON HABEN

(a) R. Simlai was asked at a Pidyon HaBen if the Kohen or the father makes the second Berachah, Shehechiyanu.
1. The Kohen, perhaps, since the benefit is his.
2. The father, perhaps, since he is performing the Mitzvah.
(b) He did not know and thus asked in the Beis HaMedrash.
(c) He was taught the law that the father recites both Berachos.
