Rabbis who kill with their eyes

All Else Is Commentary is a podcast of Jewish ideas from a curious, progressive and critical perspective, hosted by Rabbi Elliott Karstadt.In this special solo episode, Elliott delves into legends from the Talmud in which rabbis kill with their eyes, and considers what it says about rabbinic power, and whether there is a possibility that – in a small way at least – the rabbis are laughing at themselves.Click here for a source sheet to accompany this episode.If you have any comments or questions, or if there are any talmudic stories you would love Elliott and Kath to talk about, please be in touch with us at [email protected] – we would love to hear from you.If there are people in your life who you think would be interested, please tell them about All Else Is Commentary.Next time: Rabbi Kath is back, as we consider another story about Rabbi Yochanan, this time it will be the famous story of Rabbi Yochanan and his relationship with Reish Lakish. All Else Is Commentary is brought to you by Alyth.
