Eruvin 81

October 29, 2020

Today’s Daf Yomi page, Eruvin 81, reaches into the book of Ezekiel to discuss one of the Bible’s most notoriously scatological references, the poop sandwich. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin returns to help us figure out what this unappetizing snack means, and why the Talmud seems to devote so much time to number two. Why is the punishment for mocking the rabbis being boiled in excrement? Listen and find out.
