Fire Up Your Learning Talmud Tisch - Intermediate Talmud: Tractate Shabbat, Lesson 36 (pg 26a) "Fuelling Sacred Serenity" Seeking to better clarify the rhyme and reason of particular fuels banned by Jewish law, we encounter strange overlap of ritual proscription and the prevention of injury. Cracking the code to understand this Talmudic juxtaposition, a telling and compelling narrative emerges. Shabbat candles can now be seen in a new light as their underlying essence is better illuminated. (Tractate Shabbat 26A)
