Chullin 12 - The Talented Mr. Talmud

from Take One Daf Yomi Hosted by Tablet Magazine

On today’s page, Chullin 12, the rabbis wrestle with a deceptively modern question: when can we trust that someone claiming expertise actually knows what they’re doing? Is watching a person perform a task enough, or do credentials and reputation matter more than appearances alone? The daf becomes a meditation on trust, supervision, and the limits of what we can truly verify, themes that feel especially urgent in an age of AI, performance, and manufactured authority. In a world full of experts, how do we tell the real thing from the convincing fake? Listen and find out. Also mentioned in today’s episode: A Tie in Tel Aviv
