What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Kol HaTorah Kulah Daily Broadcast’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

shalom alaikum everyone hope everyone had a wonderful wonderful week and of course we are now in khodesh ello and we also read in parashat shoftim a fascinating set of halachos the torah tells us that when a person is going out to war so certain people have exemptions one of the paid persons that has an exemption someone was rakhaleev who is just faint of heart but then the tour identifies three specific cases a person who planted a new vineyard a person who built a new home and a person who's getting married and the common denominator of course is that all of these people have certain major major distractions in their lives someone that just became married of course should be focused on his relationship on building the sima resistor as we learned impossible say to someone who built a new home as yet not yet needs to make sure that home is securely his same thing with a vineyard there's a striking gemara in massachusetts sota that asks the following question wants to know okay let's say a person did not build a new home he has a home but he made some kind of improvements to the home he made some kind of home improvements so does that also and he wasn't mechanic he didn't do a hanukkah so those improvements does that also create an exemption from warfare warfare on the one hand it's not a brand new home on the other hand he did something new there's something that is he's concerned about that might distract him it's due to him and perhaps there'll also be a basis for exemption so the benefit points out and raises the following issue is it goes to we speak about a person who's born a bias so when a person builds a new home
