About this episode
Today’s Daf Yomi page, Yevamot 79 , gives us a beautiful passage about the essence of the Jewish people, suggesting that at the core of our spirituality is a commitment to mercy and compassion. Rabbi Sari Laufer joins us to unpack this lovely meditation, and explain what it has to teach us today. Are shy people particularly holy? Listen and find out. Like the show?
