In today's page of Talmud, Avodah Zarah 48, we pause to focus on one of the greats of the Talmudic era, Rav Sheshet, who was blind, and who possessed great intellectual prowess. Today we learn about an 'ashera', a tree that is used for idol worship, which is permitted to walk underneath, if there's no other way to reach one's destination. Rav Sheshet was fully permitted to walk underneath the tree, but what did he do instead? Listen and find out.
