Sotah 36: The Punishing Hornet and God's Righteous Name
from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
Bringing a verse to life - a winged flying insect that helps (or does not help) the Israelites when they crossed into the land of Israel to conquer it. Also, what about the tribes on Mounts Gerizim and Eval, and how that parallels the kohen gadol's breastplate. Also, midrashim on Yosef... and Yehudah, how both of them were righteous and we're therefore treated to letters from God's name to be added to their names. Plus, how Yosef nearly sinned with the wife of Potiphar, but didn't.
