- 0:01OK, Helkos gehrin Simon rash samakhat misur ariyat beguerin
- 0:07Nadine Lyon Edu TA khalidza. OK, so when they convert, when
- 0:12we finish the CE theme, then I'm going to go over some
- 0:15interesting topics about helkos gehrus, questionable gehrus la
- 0:20khakila benevid and little nuances which will shed some
- 0:27light on what we said or learnt previously.
- 0:31Oh din Torah shimotala girl, she is a emo a la Hotel me emo.
- 0:36She needs Cairo. OK, so really according to the
- 0:39Tarah, whenever a gear converts right and Andre converts to
- 0:43Judaism, the halaka is the gear she needs.
- 0:47Galleria Kekatan shinola dami, he becomes like a brand new
- 0:50person. I'm not going to get into other
- 0:53details. There is a little bit of what to
- 0:54learn in general about Garium when they convert afterwards.
- 0:58I'll just put it out there, like once they convert, how far do
- 1:02you take this principle? There's a few other examples,
- 1:05but I don't think we're going to get into it.
- 1:07He say he becomes like a new person, but when he becomes like
- 1:11a new person, then how far do you take it?
- 1:14Let's say you want to say a bracha on a place that you had
- 1:17an ace done for you, but that was in your previous lifetime,
- 1:21like, you know, like a day before, right before you, you
- 1:24converted and now you're a new person.
- 1:27So there's different on all these various issues.
- 1:29There's different opinions. So so there's how far can you
- 1:34take it? There's an there's an opinion
- 1:36that when a person converts. So then also Mokalino, he gets
- 1:40a, a fresh new slate from his Averos.
- 1:42So now he can start again. But do you get do you start
- 1:46right away you're mature, or do you have to wait 20 years
- 1:50because there's a minion for a child cause a child's immature
- 1:53because how far you want to take it?
- 1:54I'm just saying do you have to wait to 20 years to be a gear
- 1:57when you're mature enough to be a higher punishment?
- 2:00I think most of us would agree that's that's a little too far.
- 2:03But there is a real question marks.
- 2:05An interesting one is to be less Calum is you have to be less
- 2:08Calum minus Calum again. So that's that's a macho
- 2:11Krachronium. Believe it or not, I think the
- 2:13majority would say yes with a without a Brafa, but some would
- 2:18say they don't need to or it depends if it's if it's glass,
- 2:23plastic versus metal. But anyways, let's let's move on
- 2:26to the Shoukhanar itself, 'cause it's the question is right to
- 2:31realize Kalim. It might only be when you
- 2:35physically buy it from a non Jew.
- 2:38That's when Khazal or the Tara was goes there again.
- 2:41So the whole so whole question was Derisa Derabana, which might
- 2:44also make a difference. Why you sometimes you're Suffolk
- 2:47Durabanon or Duraisa la korma la kula.
- 2:51So the question is so is it only if you take it from a non Jew or
- 2:56in this case he never took it from a non Jew.
- 2:58He himself is is the person. So the question is whether he
- 3:01goes there in such a case if it's a Mr. Durabanon anyway, so
- 3:04let's go let's let's let's read inside our our topic of the
- 3:08Chautonarth is marriage. Can they can can so since
- 3:15they're they're like a newborn, we say all of their they're no
- 3:20longer related to all of their crowing.
- 3:23All of the relatives are no longer halachically they're
- 3:26they're relatives at all. They're a lot of them marry
- 3:27whoever they want. There's no illicit relationships
- 3:31with relatives by a blood. However, we're going to see
- 3:35about Kakami Asuda verza. But Kakami made it Zera, right,
- 3:41or Takani, all right, MI darabanam kadesha la yomu banami
- 3:45kadusha kamura la kadusha kala so that people don't say, oh, I
- 3:48went from a holy religion of Christianity or whatever it is,
- 3:54Buddhism, whatever it is. And now I became Jewish and it's
- 3:56not so Kamura I'm allowed to marry my, my sister or my
- 4:00mother. So look sounds terrible.
- 4:04So therefore we don't want people to say that or for it to
- 4:06look like that. So therefore they made they made
- 4:08it exert the thing Girish. But we'll see.
- 4:12We don't take it all the way. It's not so see, it's it's not
- 4:16exactly the same. They weren't girls are exactly
- 4:19like like Jews behave because we want to just be on the same
- 4:23level as the as the going. We want to be at least just as
- 4:27strict as a non religious holidays rules of of of
- 4:33relatives of marriage. But hey, Girish Shabal emo OA
- 4:37photo bhi bhi goyeta harehi keval alhan al krete.
- 4:41So therefore, if a man converts to Judaism and he has his non
- 4:46Jewish family, so if he has relations with them, it's like
- 4:50they're he's with a non Jew. And it's not like he that he
- 4:54doesn't have the same punishment as being with one's mother or
- 4:59sister or whatever the case is because OK, 'cause really
- 5:02they're not related. And we're going to see we're
- 5:07more strict with the relative of a mother cause the the halacha,
- 5:14it's a mahlokas and we've shown him, but the halacha follows
- 5:18that through a mother in the non, the non in the non Jewish
- 5:27religion, we assume that they're related through a mother, but
- 5:31they're not really related. They don't have the same usurim
- 5:34to a father, so therefore Khazal only made it these zeras you're
- 5:38going to see when it comes when it's through the mother side,
- 5:42not when it's through the father side.
- 5:44OK, so let's see inside bet gaetzai din garim araya.
- 5:53So share basar in if it's through the mother no share
- 5:58basar E Maya nasui keshu goy le emo if he was married to his
- 6:05mother when he was non, when he was a non Jew, oh a hotel MI emo
- 6:10or his sister it was mother's side Vinit gairu and now they
- 6:14convert. So MI dera banan mafrishimotam
- 6:18we separate them the emaya nasila shahar arayos Vinit
- 6:23gairbo but other the ishto sain mafrishinoto.
- 6:29But then if but if he but if it's other arayos and then and
- 6:35they converted together, then we don't, we don't separate them.
- 6:39The whole thing, this is the shock points out.
- 6:40The whole thing is only in isser Meshum zera.
- 6:44And we're not, we're not too strict when it's we're only a
- 6:48little bit strict. How far do we take the zera?
- 6:51And, and he says the only thing that they have to do is wait
- 6:55three months, which we're going to see again, 'cause you want to
- 6:59make sure you know if the child comes for it takes three months
- 7:02to see on the woman if she's pregnant or not, to make sure
- 7:04you know if the child is Jewish or not Jewish or if it came from
- 7:08before or after. OK, let's go to Gilmo.
- 7:12Goy azer bashirahem Akharshenid khaira medivari.
- 7:16So OK, goy azerbashirahem. So then if it's through the
- 7:21mother, this goy is aser through the mother, Akharshenid ghayer
- 7:26medivari sophreen. Even after he converts, it's
- 7:28Medivari Sophim Azer, a mutter, but it's a mutter if they're
- 7:35related through the through the father Alpha.
- 7:38Yeah, it's Alpha Pisha Odea. That's so it makes a difference
- 7:43if they're originally married or not originally married.
- 7:45Alpha Pisha Odea. You know, there's no question,
- 7:50you know, this is your, your, I guess, half brother or half, you
- 7:53know, half father, whatever it is through the father's side.
- 7:57Half brother. We're going to Umi like twins.
- 8:00Should the bar Baruahu Aviv Shaza.
- 8:02Who Aviv Shaza that they have the same father AFA piche if
- 8:06they don't have the same mother. Lo gazu al shair Aviv.
- 8:10They didn't goes around this Lafika nose aguirre Asiat.
- 8:16Your brother and a sister can get married if it's only half
- 8:21brother and sister to the father side after they convert to the
- 8:25Aishit Akhi Aviv and so to the uncle.
- 8:29No sister-in-law, the Aishit Akhi Aviv, the aunt with the
- 8:34nephew, the Aishit Aviv of Aishit of Aishit Beno or through
- 8:41the, the wife of his father, the, the father's fathers who
- 8:46had a mother and then they or daughter-in-law or father and or
- 8:49it was the father's wife. And then I guess they got
- 8:52divorced or whatever it is Alpha P.
- 8:56In other words, all these things, whatever the case is
- 8:58through the father Alpha P after they convert, right, Because
- 9:09everyone's we're going to you have to marry someone Jewish.
- 9:11So everyone converted. Now then it's mother one second
- 9:18Emo Mia via his mother's sister, but she's only a sister from the
- 9:23same father. The mother and the aunt are half
- 9:25sisters through the father. And then he could marry his
- 9:29aunt, even though it's his mother's, you know, it's his
- 9:34mother's sister even That's OK. Via Khoto MI Avi, his sister,
- 9:39right. And your and your direct sister,
- 9:42which we already said this case. Direct sister to the father,
- 9:44half sister. Yeah, we said that exactly.
- 9:47We had this previous case Obito. She needs Gayuru or or and and
- 9:52also the daughter. We need Gayuru.
- 9:53Everyone converted Mutarez Lo own daughter can marry his own
- 9:58daughter after they convert. Because it's because you look at
- 10:00her also and it's her father. Anytime it's through the father,
- 10:04it's OK, right? They all converted Vyesh
- 10:06Austrian. Yeah, but that's, but the goyim
- 10:10don't look at it. It's because the goyim
- 10:11themselves don't mind if it's through the father.
- 10:14At least that's the that's the, that's, that's the, that's the
- 10:18goyim that we're dealing with. According to the Rishonian.
- 10:21So anyway. So let's go on.
- 10:22However, the Haggad just says, you know what?
- 10:26Everything's us. That everything that we just
- 10:28said was mutter is really us. So there's no difference between
- 10:30father and mother. And so says the Shah says 1
- 10:34should be Mahmer tell me emo below I quote emo meema hello
- 10:40ishit akhiv me emo shenasa akhav me emo akharshinit gayer.
- 10:45So once they shenasa akhiv me emo akharshinit gayer after they
- 10:51after they get the right everybody was older and has to
- 10:54be misgayer. So they should they should not
- 10:56marry them. Allah inasa akhav keshu goy
- 11:00anytime it's through the mother. We said it's Aser, but if they
- 11:03were actually married already before they converted Keshu Hugo
- 11:09while they were married. Hareza Mutaretlow.
- 11:12So then on this there's a Kula even through the mother side.
- 11:16OK, so we'll come back to this after fine.
- 11:19The Lavash and Negrale argue on this last piece of the
- 11:22Shokanarak as well that that they have to separate.
- 11:27OK, The next the rest will be a little bit more straightforward.
- 11:30Dali shnei akim tumi. We have 2 twin brothers Shahaita
- 11:34Harassan Shiloh Biktusha vile da son biktusha.
- 11:38So when she converted while she was pregnant, that's what it is.
- 11:42They were going when they when she conceived they she
- 11:46converted, the couple converted and now they're another another.
- 11:51They get they get they get married and then she gives
- 11:55birth. OK, so Hayavi Mishum and I even
- 11:59if they don't actually get married, the same Allah applies
- 12:02but let's keep reading. He already means like doesn't be
- 12:04Katusha. I mean, she's Jewish.
- 12:05She converted. I just added the part about
- 12:08Kedusha. I'm sorry.
- 12:09Khayavi Mishum Asia. So now what these these these
- 12:17twins are brothers that they're not allowed to get married to
- 12:23each other or to each other's wives.
- 12:26Exactly. So then, or if it's a brother
- 12:29and sister twins, they can't marry each other.
- 12:31Whatever the case is, they can't get married Ava lo.
- 12:35So that's for purposes of Arias. They are 100% brothers because
- 12:41they were born as Jewish brothers and they don't need
- 12:45garris, There's nothing. They don't need to do anything.
- 12:46They're 100% Jewish. Ava lo Holtzin Volumiami But
- 12:53they can't do Khalisa and yebum for these for this type of a
- 12:56relationship. Why?
- 12:57Because in order to do yebum and Khalidza, you have to be a
- 13:01brother through the father. And since she was conceived with
- 13:06this man, that's why I said they got married.
- 13:08But they were conceived with this man.
- 13:10But they conceived when they were non Jewish.
- 13:12So these kids are not related to the father, OK.
- 13:17So therefore they're not They can't do you.
- 13:20Bummer. Halitsa.
- 13:21Hey, Hano Saguior de Vita Haguior ET Ostia.
- 13:24OK, I know. So a person who marries a
- 13:27convert and his and her and the daughter who converted, right.
- 13:31A mother and a daughter converted together.
- 13:33And a person wants to marry both of them.
- 13:36Two sisters convert together. Mina aim even through the
- 13:42mother. So you can you can only be with
- 13:47one of them. You can't be with the second
- 13:49one. What does it mean to Megarish?
- 13:51It just means if you did it. But yes, Sir, they're you're
- 13:54married to both. Kedushin is Tosin with both,
- 13:58even though they're both sisters, because it's only me
- 14:01there, Ivana, and it's asser so me there.
- 14:03I said it's 100% Tosi and but we don't allow you to stay married
- 14:07to two sisters. It's an essay there, Ivana,
- 14:09right, If they're a fully Jewish and born Jewish to be this Dar
- 14:12isa. But in our case it's a yoris,
- 14:14it's a Durbanum. So we say you have to do a get,
- 14:17and it's a get duraisa. Fine.
- 14:20Well, NASA gujaret Umeita 1 marries A Gujaret and then she
- 14:25dies Mucha Lisa IMA ovita shlogazu alabachayen.
- 14:30So then can you marry the sister or the mother after that?
- 14:35She passes away, right? Yeah.
- 14:40So I was wondering about that also.
- 14:44And Mesa mucho Mesa IMA. Oh, right.
- 14:48OK, you're right. So if it was two sisters and one
- 14:50dies, even if it's Jewish, it's OK here we're talking about a
- 14:54daughter or a mother when even after they die, you're not
- 14:57allowed to marry their mother or daughter.
- 14:59That's for a Jew. But here we're talking about a
- 15:02Gyores and they weren't goes there on that far.
- 15:05As long as they're not alive together, no one's going to talk
- 15:08about it and say it looks bad and it's not going to, you know,
- 15:11raise any eyebrows and it's not a problem.
- 15:13So they weren't goes there in such a case.
- 15:15But the shock just points out some are Mahmar for this case
- 15:20and it's better to be Mahmar as well.
- 15:22OK. Zain mutarla Adam Lisa shteyer
- 15:26akhyote gyorit minahav Shiva gazru bisha erhav.
- 15:31Now if a guy wants to marry 2 wives, two sisters and have two
- 15:34wives at the same time, if it's through the right they all
- 15:36converted and it's through the father, they're only a half
- 15:38sisters. Not a problem.
- 15:41OK Hashiniot kulan lugazu Alayan the Garian now with all the the
- 15:48second relatives second removed all of those esurim that apply
- 15:53for a Jew or even MI Darissa, they don't none of these none of
- 15:57them apply. They were and goes there by AG
- 16:00or A the Gary the Fika Muttar Hagar Lisa and IMO Ikimeria's
- 16:05grandmother right wouldn't happen too often, but the dose
- 16:08Adam Guillauret and person can marry Guillauret the the EM IMA
- 16:13bat bat Vita right grandmother, granddaughter, great
- 16:19granddaughter, whatever it is within Basharishness anytime you
- 16:21get once removed, then they were and go there Ted Gershunitzgayer
- 16:29the Ishto emo OK, now what happens?
- 16:32This happens every so often because granddaughter is not
- 16:35granddaughter's anested there. Isis is the first one.
- 16:39So it has to be a great granddaughter to be a OK
- 16:45Gershunitzgayer, the Ishto Emo, you have a couple who converts
- 16:49together and the Srikim Lifrosh Zemi Zen.
- 16:54So you have to separate them one from each other once they
- 16:57convert. Shlo Shah Kadashim.
- 16:59In other words, three months from the time they get
- 17:02converted, they live separately for three months, then they get
- 17:08married and then they live together.
- 17:11OK, Teresa and Liefozemi zesh lahoukin Bain zerah shaniz
- 17:16rabika dusha zerah shaniz rashabobik dusha.
- 17:21Because we want to make sure we totally understand the
- 17:23difference. The child, when the child is a
- 17:28Jewish child or a non Jewish child.
- 17:30Because for three months we might not.
- 17:32It's hard to tell when you look at a woman if she's pregnant or
- 17:34not, but within by three months, then you know for sure it'll
- 17:38definitely show by three months. So that's why we have to
- 17:41separate them for three months. And I believe that this is
- 17:45common practice of Akhala Maisa. So it says in my son Igus Moshe,
- 17:49I heard Rav Ravabh Yosef Chuvas and Haggos, they all say that we
- 17:55have to nowadays we still wait three months, however.
- 18:00Well, Haggal, let me just, well, I'll just say that however, the
- 18:04Iggus Moshe has an interest in Chuvar.
- 18:05He writes that in Bishakh Hadhap where there's, it's, I don't
- 18:10know, impossible, too difficult for them to be apart from each
- 18:13other. One can be sommerch on priests
- 18:17as needa by by seeing the the menstrual flow.
- 18:21Because when a woman bleeds, he says in the olden days, like
- 18:25really olden days, it's possible for her to remain pregnant even
- 18:30if she sees bleeding, or so he thinks.
- 18:33But he says nowadays the Mets see you, it is 100% if a woman
- 18:38has a normal flow, there's no way that she's going to be
- 18:41pregnant. And we know this for sure.
- 18:43So he says therefore the whole point is to know the difference.
- 18:46And so therefore Bischat takhak, one has to be a real Bischat
- 18:50takhak. So then one can can rely on it.
- 18:55He doesn't talk about, you know, other testing that's done.
- 18:57But in, in general, I believe that is what's done.
- 19:02But I don't know, you know, I didn't do a survey about the
- 19:05Idinium and but there are times where, you know, you do special
- 19:10tests by the doctor or whatever and you might have to wait a
- 19:12month. I don't know.
- 19:13Whatever it is to as long as you know 100%, maybe you can they
- 19:18can be together right away. Once you know for sure, live in
- 19:21the same apartment, once they have to get married first, No.
- 19:26And then they then they can live.
- 19:27Yeah, Yeah, that's the whole question.
- 19:31Separated, like live in different apartments or are they
- 19:33allowed to just well, So what we said normally they have to live
- 19:36separately for three months. You get married and then you
- 19:40live together. That's the that's common Halafa.
- 19:44If there's a Bishad de Kock situation where they can't,
- 19:47there's kids, there's all kinds of personal issues and.
- 19:58Right, they're not married. They're not married with a my
- 20:00gosh. So you have to do a new a new
- 20:01wedding and then they move in the first wedding for them,
- 20:05right. As a Jew, haga the EME ina rozsa
- 20:08la kaima ina Sri Hagget El yosa emanu bologet.
- 20:11And then the the Rama just points out the obvious.
- 20:14If they were married as non Jews and they convert when they
- 20:18convert, if they don't want to stay together anymore, I don't
- 20:20know something a fallout after the conversion.
- 20:22They don't need a GET anymore. Or whatever they're on good
- 20:25relations, but they want to go their own separate ways, but and
- 20:27they both want to convert. Whatever the case is, you don't
- 20:30need a get because they were they are not Jewish.
- 20:33They're they're they're not allocally married and there's no
- 20:36reason for a get. OK, good.
- 20:38The inan E DUT afilu akhi min Hain me Edim Zelizer, the gir
- 20:44shimid gayer kakatan shinola dami.
- 20:47And then when it comes to Edus, they they're allowed to testify
- 20:55for each other against each other.
- 20:59They could be two agents, right? Or put together for against each
- 21:03other, whatever it is, right? Because they're 100% separate.
- 21:07They're not related. However, yud alev the inyang
- 21:12Dean gerkashir le dundini maminus Lucia tier gerkashir.
- 21:19He can he can do dini maminus, but that's only should The Who

- 21:35So it's a Jindar Isa that's a child child of Aguirre.
- 21:39But Aguirre it is it's it's it's we're going to get there In
- 21:42Foshe Mishpa. There is an ISR for them to to
- 21:46force themselves on a baisdin or whatever for a baisdin against
- 21:49the person's will to judge against Aguirre can't be a dayan
- 21:53against a a Jew that's an Hilkos adus.
- 21:57If he wants him to, he's allowed to, but you can't if they don't
- 22:02want you to like fear of him in IMO misra pasila dunit Israel of

- 26:23Quick clarification Resh samakhtet yur alef.
- 26:27How do you have a gear that his mother is Jewish?
- 26:30So we're talking about the we're talking about the son of a gear,
- 26:36the father and it can go either way.
- 26:39And then he's allowed to judge on a Israel if or the father or
- 26:44the mother. If either one of them were a
- 26:47born original Jew and only one of them is a convert, then
- 26:51that's fine. Also the end of Gimel when it
- 26:55says NASA ahib keshuhugoi. So the case is you're talking
- 27:00about two brothers, 2 gentile brothers and one of them was
- 27:04married. And then when he, when the three
- 27:08of them convert at the same time, for example, then the
- 27:12brother who wasn't married is allowed to marry his brother's
- 27:17wife because the brother's wife was his wife as a gentile.
- 27:22Now that they're all converted, it's a fresh start.
- 27:25No one's related. And the brother is allowed to
- 27:29marry his what used to be his brother's wife.
- 27:33But they didn't, they were never married when they were when they
- 27:37were Jewish. So therefore she's free to
- 27:40either either brother when they convert together.
