Yevamot 17: Matrilineal Descent - Talmud-style
from Talking Talmud · host Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
Concerns about those with questionable lineage, which sparks a discussion about the 10 Tribes that were exiled in the era of the prophets. Including the question of Jewish heritage in a small amount, and the question of mamzerut that might emerge from the more questionable relationships... But how likely was this really?! The question is also whether the child is one if a couple who are idolators (or an idolator who married a Jew). Also, a new chapter, and new mishnah: the case of brothers who were not alive at the same time - how does that case of yibum work out?
