Welcome to the Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Barry Chesler looks at Masechet Sukkah Daf 23.
A general principle in the mishnah is that if the tree is removed and the sukkah can stand, then the sukkah is considered valid. The mishnah about building a sukkah about a boat is R. Aqiva’s. The mishnah about a sukkah on a camel is R. Meir’s. Conflicting opinions [R. Meir and R. Yehudah] about the use of an animal for a wall of a sukkah and an exploration of the issues.
The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
