Gittin 82 and 83 – Answering Questions

Today’s Talmud pages, Gittin 82 and 83, is full of questions asked and answered. This provides us with another opportunity to consider the broader questions that we have about the Talmud. Producer Darone Ruskay is once again joined by Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin for our second “Talmud Explainer” episode. Rabbi Bashevkin answers questions posed by our listeners on our Take One Facebook page about topics ranging from how the rabbis from different eras seem to be in conversation with one another, how to better understand the final answers to the disagreements that are debated within the Talmud, and finally providing a meditation on the hadran alach prayer that is recited at the end of each tractate of the Talmud. Is there a cheat-sheet to better understand the character of the rabbis in the Talmud? Listen and find out. Like the show? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter. Send us a note at [email protected].
