Episode description

More on moving muktzah, for the sake of needing its place or the item itself. Specifically, terumah, where some is pure and some is impure, in the same basket. Also, coins on a pillow. Notably, the Gemara's careful and close reading of the Mishnah. A side comment on "Gemara logic," and its associative nature, as compared to the linear approach of Greek logic, which underpins much of modern thinking. And: some more cases of moving muktzah: a stone at the mouth of the barrel. And more on the coins on the pillow. With a question on what item needs moving, as the muktzah item. Plus: Moving something valuable that was left in a public place, for example, a wallet - make it a carrier for something that is permissible to carry. Plus: Work-arounds, and whom Chazal suggest use them, and the subjectivity of what we need to move.
