Loss and Uncertainty

Since the devastation on October 7 and throughout the subsequent Israel-Hamas War, Israelis and Jews worldwide have endured tremendous loss and deep uncertainty. In the first episode of TEXTing, a podcast devoted to the exploration of Jewish texts in relation to current events, Elana Stein Hain and Christine Hayes turn to the Talmud in tractate Hagigah to address this shock, disbelief, alienation, and despair.     We are grateful to the Walder Charitable Fund and Micah Philanthropies for their generous support of TEXTing.    This episode is also sponsored by Erica Schacter Schwartz    Episode Source Sheet    You can now sponsor an episode of TEXTing.
