Description

The debate between Beit Hillel and Beit Shammai regarding advice for someone who wishes to shecht a bird on Yom Tov, but lacks dirt to cover the blood. Tangentially: 1. Why would Rabbah and Rav Yosef debate within Beit Shammai's view? 2. Are the sages able to prohibit an action which would fulfill a biblical mitzvah?
