R Menashe of Iliya, the Process of Learning, and His Travels

In this week's episode we discuss the issue of what does it mean being part of the process in terms of explaining Torah and psak. How do we understand R Menashe of Iliya's proposing ideas different from the classics? We also examine a very important statement of R Menashe of Iliya in his last work, Shekel HaKodesh, about his custom of travel. Can we combine this with his first pamphlet, Pesher Davar? Does the statement sound in character for him? Or was it something he learnt later in life?
