Sanhedrin 20: Moral Paragons
from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
On Paltiel, the second husband of Michal, daughter of Saul. But how could Michal have been with Paltiel as a wife?? Paltiel is included among others who were praised for not acting on sexual urges. Plus, the poverty - and piety, as previously discussed - of Rabbi Yehudah bar Ilai [Who's Who: Rabbi Yehudah bar Ilai]. Also, a new mishnah: when a king dies and when a king mourns, plus other details of mourning. And a second mishnah on the need for 71 judges to establish a draft for an optional war. Plus, Solomon's realm - from the upper world, to the lower world, to the land of Israel, to Jerusalem, to his bed, to his staff or cloak.
