DAF DISCUSSIONS - SUKAH 16

David Goldman asks:

How is it possible that the gemara indicates a height and length in tefachim of the sukkah that seems to contradict and be incompatible with the idea of DWELLING. Who dwells in a house that is two and half feet high and two and a half feet long? How is this explained in the gemara? Thanks and Good Moed.

The Kollel replies:

Shalom Rav,

The Gemara considers a dwelling in which one can sit and eat to be a dwelling.

This is particularly understandable considering that we are discussing a Diras Arai, a temporary abode.

B'Virchas Kol Tuv,
