A very brief review of today's daf:
The Gemara compares the halacha regarding
inheritance transferring from sons to daughters and the case where a person
gives a gift on his deathbed that must be rescinded when he survives.
We learn about how the Sages predict the weather based on
the weather on Festival days. What
difference would it make to know the future weather? Only the prayers of the High Priest would be
affected. It would assist him to know specifically
what to pray for when attempting to help the people ‘receive the weather’ that
would be beneficial to their crops.
Regarding a person on his deathbed, the rabbis ask whether a
debt can be forgiven. This will also be
used to better understand the reasoning behind the halacha of inheritance.
