Welcome to the Hundred and Twenty Second episode of Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Adina Lewittes looks at Masechet Shabbat Daf 123. This page in Massechet Shabbat describes two fascinating aspects of the development and growth of Jewish law over the ages. One indicates the different priorities and values poskim, those who decide Jewish law, factor into their decisions; and another recounts the history of how Jewish law, in this case Shabbat law, evolved. The implications for our own times are noted.
Rabbi Adina Lewittes is the founder of Sha’ar Communities in Bergen County, New Jersey, a groundbreaking suburban network of small, inclusive, and accessible Jewish communities connected by a broad vision of Jewish renaissance. An entrepreneur in her rabbinate, Rabbi Lewittes earlier founded Congregation Kol HaNeshamah in Englewood, New Jersey, and served as the first female Assistant Dean of the Rabbinical School at JTS during which time she participated in the rethinking and restructuring of the program’s curriculum.
The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
