Daf shvui/Weekly daf: Baba bathra 19b-20b
Talmud is an ancient text, a product of late antiquity, but also an artifact of early modernity and burgeoning technology of the printing press, which also brought it into conflict with the Church which controlled the presses to some extent. This week’s daf forces us to dip into this also.
So…Welcome! Pour your favorite beverage, get your favorite snack, put your feet up, and let’s jump into the milkhamta shel torah/the struggle of Torah study.
The latest episode is here.
And have a wonderful Pesach.
