We continue with the laws of interruptions that may be or may not be made at certain places during the recital of the Keriat Shema. One such a place is the very end when we say the word “Emet”. Thereafter a paragraph follows with the word “VeYatziv” We follow the opinion of Rabbi Yehuda that no interruption may be made between these two words.
The Gemara continues with the discussion about whether one should say this word, yet again, when starting the paragraph by itself.
A discussion follows regarding a possibility of reciting a shorter third paragraph instead of the paragraph we do recite today which includes the Mitzvah of Tzitzit.
The Gemara continues with a discussion about the order of the three paragraphs of the Shema. Why do we recite the three paragraphs in the particular order that we do?
What is the law with regards to wearing Tefillin and reciting the Keriat Shema? Should we recite Keriat Shema and then put on our Tefillin, or is it correct to put on Tefillin first and then only afterwards recite the Keriat Shema?
It seems from a particular story about Rav that he would wash his hands, then recite the Keriat Shema, and only then put on his Tefillin. But was this case a case to be relied upon for further generations, or are we perhaps missing something in this story?
