Description

Does a kezayis of a meis, swallowed by a animal, defile in a ohel? Can a kohen be in the same room, with a woman who has a stillborn within her? How can a sheretz, a dead animal, a dead gentile, and a dead Jew defile objects? How does one differentiate a chaya from a beheima? Which laws apply only to a beheima and which laws apply only to a chaya? Does one need a tradition to determine a chaya or a beheima kasheira? For which three sins does one bring a karbon oleh v'yoreid? Can the pregnant wife of a kohen attend a funeral? How does one determine that a food is not edible? Haftorah: Machar Chodesh- Why do we have a special haftorah when Rosh Chodesh occurs on a Sunday, but not when another holiday occurs on a Sunday?
