What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Daniel Glatstein’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

we were speaking about rashi's house it actually began pasha's tazria when we spoke about rashi's last words two weeks ago we learned about someone who the amsho quotes from the rush was the greatest in and minion of all the reshanam namely rabbenutam rabbenotam was the wisest sharpest and greatest disseminator of torah of all the reshinem the rush says my friend rib margarefta referred me to the ritva who said nobody referred me to the ritva who said nobody is greater i'm sac than the rambam well that's what the svardhan say the ashkenazim say nobody was greater than rabino tam and his nephew the rihazakin and they were all members of rashi's house and it's really remarkable how rashi established such a remarkable bias so we the last two weeks we spoke about rabbenu tam and the rashbam who are grandchildren of rashi so let's get so let's get develop the picture of rashi even more fuller because rashi did not have any sons rashi had two daughters some scholars say he had a third but it's very questionable whether in fact he had a third and and this is a common phenomenon in history that when someone has daughters he often educates his daughters as if they would be sons and we find and we find uh something like this in the house of rashi where you know 200 years ago or even 150 years ago your grandmother certainly your great grandmothers could not read and write in europe women could not read and write until really the 20th century um in the middle ages most men could not read or write i'm not doing that in the jewish world the jewish world you know we always been
