Welcome to the Hundred and Twenty Seventh episode of Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Marci Jacobs Aronchick looks at Masechet Shabbat Daf 128. Through the Talmud’s discussion of the flexibility of Shabbat – how many things we might consider forbidden are actually permitted – we are reminded of our responsibility to treat that flexibility with respect, tailoring our behavior to suit Shabbat.


Rabbi Marci Jacobs Aronchick is the Education Director of Congregation Ansche Chesed in New York City. Prior to coming to the Ansche Chesed community, she served for five years as the Assistant Rabbi at Temple Emunah, in Lexington, MA. A lover of Rabbinic Literature since the first time she explored a page of Talmud in college, Marci relishes opportunities to bring her passion for the Gemara to her students, whether one-on-one, in the classroom, or now, through Daily Daf Differently.
