Mansour_ The Gemara in Masechet Hagiga (5a) teaches that it is forbidden to do something that revolts one's fellow. The examples given include expectorating or killing a bug in somebody's presence.

Mansour_ The Shulhan Aruch (Orah Haim 3:10) writes – based on the Gemara in Masechet Berachot (62) – that when one cleans himself after defecating, he should use specifically his left hand. The Gemara brings several reasons for this rule. One reason is that people ordinarily eat with their right hand, so it would be inappropriate to use the same hand for cleaning oneself. A second reason is that one uses… [Listen](https://learntorah.com/content/bcd88850-1603-4cc9-8f06-9014882b5165.mp3) ## [Hullin 101: The Torah Is Not in Pieces](https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/talkingtalmud/episodes/Hullin-101-The-Torah-Is-Not-in-Pieces-e3n6e95) _2026-08-09 · Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon · Talking Talmud_ On the sciatic nerve of the carcass of a kosher animal -- is there a way out of the punishment for the forbidden food?
