Description
On today’s pages, Chullin 38 and 39, the rabbis confront one of the most difficult questions in all of law and ethics: how can we ever know what another person truly intended? Through cases involving idol worship, divorce, and ambiguous actions, the daf explores the complicated relationship between thought and behavior. Sometimes actions reveal intentions; sometimes they obscure them. How much can we really know about what is happening inside another person’s mind? Listen and find out.
