Hullin 74: The Sciatic Nerve of the Fetus

from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

Several cases: One who eats the extended limb from the fetus -- with that person get lashes or not, for eating the limb of a live animal? And a source for the halakhah. And the difference between "animals" vs. creepy crawlies and impurity (and susceptibility to impurity). Also, a new mishnah! On an 8-month fetus vs. a 9-month fetus, as found in the womb. And when the forbidden fat becomes permitted to eat -- and also the "gid ha-nasheh"/sciatic nerve.
