About this episode
In today’s Talmud page, Kiddushin 67 , the Rabbis discuss how to determine if a child is born Jewish. They explain what to do both when the father is Jewish as well as when the parents convert to Judaism. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin returns to make sense of the term “the flawed lineage” of a convert and disusses the important components that someone thinking of converting must consider. In addition to making sure that they have gained a deep understanding of what it means to be Jewish through education, they must also fully understand that being a Jew means being part of a group that goes through difficult times. The importance of the idea that being a member of a community requires being ready to be together during the most difficult times is one that should resonate with us all at this moment. What do we gain from being able to lean on one another during the difficult times? Listen and find out. Like the show? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter . Send us a note at takeone@tabletmag.com .
