from Semikha Program - Torah Ve-Ahava · host Rabbi Haim Ovadia

In this session we discuss Chapters 347-353 of Shulhan Arukh Yoreh De'ah. These short chapters open up an interesting discussion of quasi-pagan practices such as burying one's tools of trade with him, or throwing garments into the grave. We also discuss the shrouds, the washing and purification of the body, organ donation, and whether the face of the deceased should be revealed or covered.
