shabbat 139

when society crumbles, look to the leaders and officials for who to blame.
and to the torah scholars who keep the corrupt judges, and people, in ignorance.

and know when and how to filter out the dregs.

(this page continues the discussion about Torah being forgotten and holds Torah scholars do not teach properly, only teach selectively, and keep the judges, and people in ignorance. later in the page is taught the prohibition of filtering the dregs from wine on Shabbat. selecting, choosing one over the other.  In the drawing there are 3 seated figures, a bet din, a Jewish tribunal is usually made of 3 seated judges. for english translation of this talmud page, see here)

shabbat 74

legislating for unskilled hands and skilled hands

the act of selecting, taking something away, done by hand (although not a skilled hand) and for immediate use.

and the rare craft of hand-spinning wool while it is still attached to the animal.
