Gittin 87 and 88 – Shared Experiences

Today’s Talmud pages, Gittin 87 and 88, asks whether a single divorce decree can be used for multiple people if a list of husbands and a list of wives are written and it indicates that they will be divorced. Rabbi Daniel Isaak, Rabbi Emeritus of Congregation Neveh Shalom joins us to discuss the experience he had when performing a collective marriage, marrying six couples, who had been previously married by civil law, but had not had a Jewish wedding. He shares which parts of the ceremony could be done in unison, and which needed to be done couple by couple. What are the obstacles of marrying multiple couples at once? Listen and find out.
