May HaKadosh Baruch Hu strengthen their hands in healing and help the scientists find a cure - and by Onnie Schiffmiller for a refuah shleima of Tzvi ben Frieda.
How much does an item need to be cooked in order to be able leave it on the fire before Shabbat? Like maachal ben drosai - what is that and where else does it appear in halacha? The gemara explain what part of the bread needs to be browned before Shabbat. Why is there a special dispensation for roasting the Pesach sacrifice and for the bonfire in the Beit Hamoked in the temple? How much does a regular bonfire need to be lit before Shabbat? The second chapter begins with a discussion of what cannot be used as wicks or oil for Shabbat candles since people need to use the light for seeing, it needs to be a good light. The gemara explains what each of the items in the mishna are.
