Sanhedrin 54: 'In the Way One Lies with a Woman'

from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

NOTE: A difficult daf for modern sensibilities, specifically with regard to (male) homosexual practice. The sages deliberate how to understand and apply the verses in Leviticus about incest, homosexual practice, and bestiality. Also, the mishnah identifying these practices as death sentence transgressions, with stoning being the mode of execution, in the event of an intentional violation with witnesses and warning, etc.
