About this episode
Today’s Talmud page, Ketubot 85 , advises us to favor a good neighbor over a distant relative. Mark Oppenheimer, co-host of the Unorthodox podcast, joins us to explain why. What did the rabbis understand about living in close proximity to other humans that modern-day architects have since reaffirmed? Listen and find out. Take One is a Tablet Studios production. The show is hosted by Liel Leibovitz, and is produced and edited by Darone Ruskay and Quinn Waller.
