A discussion regarding "Bo Bayom” that fateful day when they appointed Rabbi Elazar ben Azaria, Rabbi Akiva taught: “And every earthenware vessel into which any of them falls, whatever is in it shall be impure [yitma], and you shall break it” (Vayikra 11:33)., the daf discusses differences between liquid and solid states in imparting Tum’ah, which leads us to a review of the mechanics differences in states of matter ….and those of the heart too!
