Pesachim 110 - March 11, 27 Adar - a podcast by Michelle Cohen Farber

Study Guide Pesachim 110

Today's daf is sponsored by Sarah Robinson in honor of Yehudit Robinson. "I'm so lucky you are my sister and that you showed me how to love the challenge of gemara learning. Wishing you the most amazing day and a stupendous year! Happy birthday!"

The gemara deals with the issue of the dangers of eating and drinking in pairs as it arouses the danger of demons. In what situations is it an issue/not an issue? Is it all pairs? Some say drinking 10 cups is not an issue but less is. Some say the same for 8 and for 6 and for 4. Information is relayed about demons and witchcraft and suggestions are provided for incantations to recite if one encounters one. What types of people are more susceptible to demons? The gemara explains that one who is worried about pairs, the demons will attack them but one who is not concerned about them, the demons will not attack them.
