About this episode
Today’s Talmud page, Nazir 2 , introduces us to a new tractate that’s all about the Nazir, the person who'd taken a very specific and powerful vow. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us with a preview of what to expect, and a meditation on why dedicate an entire tractate to a specific vow after already discussing vows at great length.
