Shabbat 84: Little Boxes, Impure Boxes (for Friday, May 29, 2020, Shavuot)
from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
What's What: Midras tumah. When boxes are contaminated, as it were, with tumah - when they open from the side or from the top. Whereas a very large box is not rendered impure. Now, what about earthenware? That's not able to be rendered impure in this way. So, what about the ship? The difference between midras tumah and the handling of an object that renders it impure.
