About this episode
Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Chagigah 2 and 3 , introduce us to a brand new tractate, all about the obligation to make the pilgrimage to the ancient Temple in Jerusalem thrice a year and celebrate. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to explain the sweet mysticism of the rabbis passionately debating a ritual they knew they’d never experience firsthand. What can their dedication teach us about faith, hope, and resilience? Listen and find out. Like the show? Send us a note at takeone@tabletmag.com .
