Show Notes

I know that all the cool kids are jumping on to the daf yomi bandwagon. However, if you are looking for something a bit more mellow, a bit more curated, less a part of the rough and tumble of the daf yomi speedway—I invite you to daf shvu'i. No prior experience necessary.

This week we continue with what I call masechet tzedakah/the tractate of poverty relief, of the two longest extended discussions of poverty relief. Law, ethics, theology, legend. What's not to like?

You can find the daf here:
1. Vilna page (hebrew and aramaic) from Hebrewbooks.org
2. Hebrew and English from Sefaria.org
3. Hebrew and Aramaic with many commentaries from Alhatorah.org
