Pesachim 48 - January 8, 24 Tevet

Today's Daf is sponsored by Moishe Morgenstern in honor of his wife Laya Mohadeb Morgenstern. "I honor your dedication to learn the daf every day. I am very proud of you." And by Deborah Lewis in honor of Traci Lewis "for all of the support and love. Traci always encourages me to continue my learning. She is a blessing." And by Harry Green in honor of Karena M. Perry "who has been learning the Daf Yomi with this Hadran program for a year. She has been in the formidable environment of Alaska, doing this on her own. May she continue from strength to strength in her growth, and love of Torah."

Is the debate between Raba and Rav Chisda regarding cooking on Yom tov for a regular day the same debate as between Rabbi Eliezer and Rabbi Yehoshua in our mishna regarding taking challa on Yom Tov of Pesach from an impure dough - it it also based on whether or not we say ho'il? What is the largest size dough that one can knead for making matza so that one need not worry that it leaven while kneading? If three women are sharing use of an oven, can they all knead their doughs at the same time or not? What is considered chametz nukshe - that one is not liable to receive karet, however one still needs to burn it?
