Megillah 3a: The Talmudic Origin for the Subconscious - Gemarah Megillah #7

What’s said in this shiur

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

Rabbi Yehoshua, his teachers. The one of Yonasan ben Uziel on Nevi'im is from the tradition of Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. And when he wrote it Chazal say Eretz Yisrael was trembling heaven was perturbed that he's revealing these secrets until he said "I'm not doing this for my glory, I'm doing this to create peace among the Jewish people." But Kesuvim, he was not allowed is not allowed to translate. The Gemara says even though we have a pasuk in Nechemya that Ezra read the sefer Torah to the Jews who came back and he explained it and he translated it. Right, meforesh, it says he read it meforesh which is the Targum. So that means you had the Aramaic translation earlier. He said, "Yes, but it was forgotten and Unkelos brought it back." So the Gemara now asks a fascinating question that somebody asked yesterday, I think about Rav Moshe yesterday. And that is Mishnah. Yeah, I just want to mention one thing, when you'll have a Chumash Mikra'os Gedolos, you'll see on the side they'll have Targum Unkelos like every Chumash and they'll also have Targum Yonasan ben Uziel. Challenge is that the Gemara here says that Yonasan ben Uziel wrote a Targum on Nevi'im, Targum shel Nevi'im Yonasan ben Uziel. But you'll see on most Chumashim Mikra'os Gedolos, or other Chumashim that have the more commentators, you'll have a Targum of Yonasan ben Uziel. On Chumash, not only on Nevi'im. Nevi'im
