Welcome to the Four Hundred and Third episode of Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Abby Sosland looks at Masechet Yoma Daf 3.


The Amora Reish Lakish suggests that the Kohen Gadol’s sequestration before Yom Kippur is derived from Moshe’s preparation to meet God on Sinai. In doing so, he teaches us how to integrate the narrative portions of Torah with our most essential rituals.


Rabbi Abby Sosland is the Morah Ruchanit (Spiritual Advisor) for the high school at Solomon Schechter Westchester, where she teaches Talmud, Bible, Philosophy and Prayer. Her chapter “Crime and Punishment” — about the laws of capital punishment and incarceration– appears in The Observant Life: The Wisdom of Conservative Judaism for Contemporary Jews (Martin Cohen and Michael Katz, Rabbinical Assembly, 2012). She runs a free High Holiday service at Town and Village Synagogue in downtown Manhattan.


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