Welcome to the Thirty Eighth episode of Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Ben Kramer looks at Masechet Shabbat Daf 39. Today’s episode is a discussion about mediating disputes, the danger of making inferences, and how, when it comes to the law, the stam (the Talmud’s anonymous voice) is more interested in discussions than decisions.


Rabbi Ben Kramer works as a congregational rabbi and an artisan blacksmith (you can see his work at rabbiBLACKSMITH.com or at facebook.com/rabbiBlackSmith). He has an MA in Talmud from the JTS Graduate School and is currently on his second Daf Yomi cycle.


The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
