Show Notes

oday’s Talmud pages, Bava Batra 131 and 132, ask what we may or may not do with things that don't physically exist yet, like trading futures or, somewhat more spiritually, banking on our share in the World to Come. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to explain why Jews don't consider heaven an ephemeral entity but rather a very concrete thing that exists, in part, right here in this world. Which famous person literally sold their share in the World to Come? Listen and find out.
