Daf Yomi: Seforim on Moed Katan, Part one
By Eliezer Brodt

Daf Yomi just started learning Masseches Moed Katan. Earlier today I had a conversation with Rabbi Moshe Schwed of All Daf.  The purpose of the conversation was for me to briefly highlight some of the Rishonim and Achronim “out there” on this masechtah, adding some tidbits of interest about them.

A nice amount of the conversation was devoted to discussing if Rashi on Moed Katan was written by Rashi and some time was spent talking about Mechon Harry Fishel. I also included a short bibliography of works related to Shemitah.

We recorded it and it’s available for viewing here and here. An audio version is available here.

It’s forty- five minutes, which is much longer than previous ones. I apologize for the length in advance, luckily both links have options for one to listen on fast speed! Many aspects could have been discussed at even greater length but R. Schwed had mercy on potential listeners! IYH Next week we will record part two which will deal with the issue of Learning the Mesechtah and Hilchos Aveilus as many avoided learning it as it relates to death.

This is an experiment which we are trying on the Seforim Blog and we hope to have other presentations from others over time. Feedback or comments of any sort are appreciated.

This is the sixth such conversation I have had with him of this kind this year (earlier we discussed Yerushalmi Shekalim [here], Yoma [here], Rosh Hashanah [here] Taanis [here] and Megillah [here]).
