About this episode
Today’s Talmud page, Bava Kama 54 , share a story where the Rabbis of the Talmud discuss exactly what words are on the tablets of the ten commandments. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to discuss the differences between the first set of tablets that were given and then destroyed and the second set which have endured. The differences between the two sets can teach us to better understand what is holy and good in our lives. How does Moshe’s involvement in creating the second set of tablets teach us about what it means to find real goodness in this world? Listen and find out. Like the show?
