Beki'in Bahalacha 6 - Shiur 78: Sinam 163: 2-6When no water is available

What’s said in this shiur

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

I would like to begin by saying that the Vico Mizrahi edition of Shulchan Aruch is being used today. The Shulchan Aruch is dedicated by his sons, dedicated to the daily study of Halacha. It's Beki'im BeHalacha 6, 7 is on the way. Daniel Klein A"H edition. And today we are on day 78. And every day comes with its own dedication. And today's dedication is leilui nishmat Mitli Naomi bat Gila Farha Zal. Ruach Hashem tenihena beGan Eden u'ti nishmatah tzerurah bitzror haChaim. Amen. So we're talking about now water. If you don't have water, so the Halacha said yesterday, you can eat bread. Shulchan Aruch said that beferush. So long as you wrap your hands. Basically, you're not touching the bread. But that's only in the case where you don't have water. The question then becomes, what does it mean you don't have water? I mean, if you drive forward or you go backwards, there's water. You know, we are you're not in the Sahara Desert, there's water. So what does it mean there's no water? So the Halacha says, "Holech on page 190. "V'rotzeh le'echol u'misha'er" and he calculates "shelo yimtza mayim lefanav." He calculates that forward travel he's not going to find water unless he has to travel more than four mil. What is four mil? Not mile, mil. So four mil is 8,000 amot. Okay, now you know what it is. 8,000 amah. Let's assume each amah is about two feet. So it's 1,600 amah. 1,600 feet. 1,600 feet is what's a mile? 50 50 50 200 feet? 5280? That's a mile? So this is about a third
