Gittin 31 and 32 – A Cautionary Tale

In today’s Talmud pages, Gittin 31 and 32, we hear the story of two rabbis who are in conversation when they see a quarrelsome person approaching, and have to choose whether to stand to show honor or not. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to teach us more about this cantankerous person, Geneiva, and how his whole story is told throughout the tractate. What can we learn from the story of Geneiva?
