Description
On today’s pages, Menachot 42 and 43, the Talmud issues a fascinating prohibition: we may not sell tzitzit to an idolater because they might use them to impersonate a Jew, leading to dangerous social and religious consequences. Guest Dr. Tevi Troy joins us to draw a parallel to the world of American politics, where "wearing the uniform" doesn't always mean playing for the team. Can we ever truly trust the labels people wear? Listen and find out.
