DAF DISCUSSIONS - BAVA BASRA 56

1. Mark Bergman asked:

The Gemoro mentions that one name for a country to be part of Eretz Yisroel in the future is Aspamya. I presume that this is a different Aspamya from that mentioned in an earlier Mishna, which was a year's journey away (presumably from Eretz Yisroel).

(PS - any idea where that Aspamya is?)

2. The Kollel replies:

Rashi in Ovadya (1:20) quotes the Targum Yonasan as translating "Aspamya" as Spain. This is also the definition given by the Sidur Rav Amram Gaon (Birkas ha'Shachar).

All the best,

Yaakov Montrose
