Pirkei Avos: Ethics for Everyday Living Ep. 9

What’s said in this shiur

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

so we are in chapter two of pirkei last week we started the fourth mishna and actually i realized i think there's i'm pointing out last week that the fourth mishna has kind of two parts and actually some versions of pure kyog was actually divided into two separate mishnahs then the numbers get off from here on out if depending on which version you have but uh we're going to be continuing on as if it's the fourth mishnah so we'll as if it's the fourth mishnah so we'll still call it that and we are starting halfway through the fourth mishna so i think on the source sheet which i i don't actually have in front of me i have but uh i think it has both halves um so we're starting in the second half so the second half says hillel omer hillel used to say altifrosh minazibar do not do not one should not separate oneself from the community do not separate yourself from the community and don't trust yourself until the day of your death and don't judge your friend until you arrive in their place and don't say something that's and don't say something that's impossible to hear that in the end it will be heard and we'll have to still you know explain what all these things mean but especially that one it's very unclear what that means don't say when i have free time i'll study because maybe you'll never have free time so hillel here makes a total of i guess uh
