What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Dovid Hofstedter’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
[Music] Bukma, page 55, beginning with the help of God, page 56, page 2, last line, with the words "fell before him and all" It is narrated in the Book of Jacob, chapter 21, about one of the people of Jerusalem who bought an animal in the evening and kept it on the roof before he woke up that day. He leaves the house and roof before he woke up that day. He leaves the house and sees the animal on the ground. It is not on the roof but on the ground and it cannot stand on its feet. That Jerusalemite does not know whether it fell from the roof. Then the case is similar to what we discussed on page 5, with the same ox that fell into a water canal. If it cannot stand on its feet, one must wait 24 hours to see if it survives, and then it can be slaughtered. On the other hand, perhaps it jumped from the roof. As the other hand, perhaps it jumped from the roof. As the Shulchan Aruch writes, Yoreh De'ah, chapter 11, when an animal that was on the roof is kosher and is now on the ground, one should not worry that it fell, but rather that it jumped and it can be slaughtered even within 24 hours of its fall, even if it cannot stand on its feet. Its internal organs are examined, and if no signs of predation are seen there, it is kosher. This story is kosher. It was known to the Rabbi of Jerusalem, Rabbi
