- one might forget that an action is a transgression
- one might intentionally transgress
- one might incur several consequences (bringing multiple sin offerings)
- one might incur only one penalty, one sin offering, for a number of transgressions
- an example of this is when a person bows to an idol, forgetting that this action is forbidden
- however, if one intended to honour a person whom others might consider to be an idol, this could be permitted
- Shabbat halachot are treated with greater stringency
- One can look to the intention of the transgression to determine the seriousness of the punishment
- Pleasure might be derived from the transgression
- Rabbi Yochanan says that if someone can explain to him the Mishna of a barrel moved by a watchman without permission, that he would carry his clothes to the bathhouse.
I began Daf Yomi (Koren translation) in August of 2012 with the help of an online group that is now defunct. This blog is intended to help me structure and focus my thoughts as I grapple with the text. I am happy to connect with others who are interested in the social and halachic implications of our oral tradition. Respectful input is welcome.
