About this episode
For centuries, writing a Torah scroll was a sacred task reserved for men. But a couple of decades ago, a handful of women decided to pick up the quill—without waiting for permission—and paved the way for other women to do the same. In this episode of Can We Talk? , we hear from women who write Torah scrolls and explore what it means to inscribe yourself into tradition.
