Kiddushin 59 – Thoughts Versus Actions
Description
In today’s Talmud page, Kiddushin 59, Reish Lakish observes that a vessel can become impure merely by thought, while an action must be taken for a vessel to be imbued with purity. From this amazing story, we learn that it is not what we feel or think that contributes to who we are, but the actions that we take. What can today’s Talmud page teach us about that gym membership we purchased, but never use, or that novel that sits on our bedside table unread? Listen and find out.
