BRIEF INSIGHT
THE PROHIBITION AGAINST IDLE CHATTER
A person should not listen to idle chatter, because the ear is the quickest to burn of all the limbs. The Torah warns us not to listen to idle talk even if no forbidden subjects are being discussed. We do not find that the Torah warns us similarly about the usage of any of our other senses, such as sight (the Torah does not warn us not to look idly at things that are permitted). Why is listening to idle talk an exception? The Maharsha explains that the prohibition is because we must be more careful with our sense of hearing than with our other senses, because when someone is discussing idle topics it easily could lead to subjects that are prohibited. That is the meaning of the Gemara that the ear is the quickest to burn. It is the quickest to burn because it is so easy to transgress the prohibition of listening to forbidden topics, and therefore the ear is the most likeliest limb to suffer from the fire of Gehinom.
QUICK HALACHAH
MARRIAGE ON EREV SHABBOS
According to some opinions it is forbidden to get married on Erev Shabbos and on Motza'i Shabbos because of a Gezeirah that it might lead to Chilul Shabbos (by way of preparing for the wedding on Shabbos). However, some opinions permit marrying on those days, and the Minhag is to get married on Friday as long as the meal was prepared for three days in advance. (Shulchan Aruch EH 64:3)
