Daf Yomi for Women - Hadran - A podcast by Michelle Cohen Farber
Categories:
Today's daf is sponsored by Ruth Leah Kahan, Jessica Shklar, and Emily Michelson in loving memory of their mother, Kadimah Michelson, Kadimah bat haRav Avraham Tzvi Bentzion v'Chaya, on her 6th yahrzeit. "May her memory be a blessing." What is considered circumstances beyond one's control that a shomer would be exempt from? One animal attacking or two animals? Does it depend on what type of animal? One can stipulate that one will be a shomer but will not be obligated to pay according to the Torah laws. How is this different from a condition that goes against Torah law that is not a valid condition? Other laws of conditions are discussed. The Mishna discusses in which circumstances one is exempt as a borrower because the owner was "with the shomer" - she'eila b'baalim. The Gemara then discusses the derivation of the laws of shomrim from the verses in the Torah.
