About this episode
Today’s Talmud page, Nedarim 86 , informs us that forbidden things tend to have an inherent sanctity. Which, for those of us who started keeping kosher later in life, hits close to home. How did one kosher-keeper grapple with losing his most beloved breakfast meat? And can parting with bacon really be considered a spiritual triumph? Listen and find out.
