115 – because we’re not supposed to build it, as the rishonim say, we don’t know exactly where to put the mizbeach. We also can’t bring korbanos nowadays anyway, So go make one and risk being chayav kares. I guess rishonim just “didn’t want” to build it, and neither did amoraim who lived in eretz yisroel.
Seriously…this is your criticism? Halacha is clear about this.
As to your point about talmudic readings that happen in synagogues every morning, yeshiva people learn gemara the way the dvar Hashem is meant to be learned. With ameilus, rigorous questioning and analysis to figure out the kavanah of the gemara and rishonim, to understand what’s beneath the surface.
Talmud readers who celebrate big siyumim on tractates that they say “all sound the same” and who pride themselves in their ability to….translate most gemaras without artscrolll!…yes, they know “kol hatorah kulah”
Please. We all know what the average daf yomi shiur is like.
Some baalebatim learn Torah properly. They are bnei torah and deserve all the respect in the world. But others.
