Beitzah 25: Manners for the Stiff-necked Jewish People

A new mishnah - an animal that is in danger of dying should not be slaughtered on yom tov. Or rather, there must be enough time in the day to eat from the meat after the slaughtering. Also, if you slaughter an animal out in the field, you can't bring it home as you usually would on a weekday. Plus, comparable stipulations regarding how garlic and onion are to be eaten, to avoid the appearance of being a glutton. Likewise, drinking. Plus, taking care with eating lupines - which are to cut off the feet of the enemies of Israel (ahem, Israel itself). And more - character traits of the Jewish people as a whole. Beginning, of course, with being strong-willed. Do the rules of the Torah subdue that nature? Does that nature allow the Jewish people to handle the Torah? Plus, another appearance of workday in the use of a particular chair, with exceptions - including Yalta.
