This is a noisy transcript of Rav Schachter’s shiur, about kezayit and zimun. You can listen to the shiur here.
Thank you very much. Thank you. The first term we reached, more or less, we got to the נמטס עמוד ב (Nemtes Amud Beis). I've got 20 lines before the Mishnah. And the מורה (moreh) is commenting on the last line in the Mishnah, נמה'ר מדלב (Nemhe'er Medalev). The first Mishnah in the Torah. The Mishnah has a מחלוקת (machlokes). The מחלוקת (machlokes) is רבמאיר רבי יהודה (Rabmeir Rabi Yehuda). It's not Mishnah's רבמאיר (Rabmeir), because the תנא קמא (Tanakama) is רבמאיר (Rabmeir). How much bread do you have to eat in order to be able to be מצווה תו א מצומן (mitzva'ed to a Mezuman)? So the first תנא (Tanna) of רבמאיר (Rabmeir) says כזית (Kezayis), so רבי יהודה (Rabi Yehuda) says כביצה (Kebeitza). So this is comments here on נמטס עמוד ב (Nemtes Amud Beis). עד כמה בזמנאל (Adkama Bezamnal).
