*28.6 Makkos Daf 19 A (12 lines Up)*We learned a _beraisa_ (28.4) regarding the permissibility of eating _maaser sheini_ in Yerushalayim after the _churban._ In 28.6 it was explained that since the _zerikah_ of a _bechor_ requires a _mizbeach,_ we learn a _hekesh_ that eating the _bechor_ also requires a _mizbeach_*Summary**Challenge:* If we hold _*“Kedusha rishona kidsha l’asid lavo”*_ that Yerushalayim maintains its _kedusha_ even after the _churban,_ then Bechor *would* be permissible nowadays _[we can build a mizbeach and bring it as a korban]._If we hold *_“Kedusha rishona kidsha l’shaata''_* that Yerushalayim lost its kedusha after the _churban,_ then the permissibility of _Bechor_ *is the same question* as _maaser sheini!_*Ravina:* We hold that *Yerushalayim lost its _kedusha._* But there is no question that the bechor is forbidden, because we’re discussing a specific case of *a _bechor_ which had _zerikah_ before the _churban._* Since the _zerikah_ was with a _mizbeach_ we learn by means of a _hekesh_ that it must also be eaten with a _mizbeach_ [which is no longer possible]._(Our question is; may we eat maaser sheini in Yerushalayim nowadays when there is no mizbeach? But maaser sheini doesn’t need a mizbeach. We thus compare it to a case of a bechor which doesn’t need a mizbeach either - because any avodah was already done before the churban. Since that bechor is forbidden, we learn that maaser is also forbidden)._ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
