Show Notes

Today’s Talmud page, Bava Batra 28, discusses what it takes to truly take possession of something, like a field, say, or a house. But can the same rules prescribed by the rabbis teach us how to take possession of our own country? And might the Talmud have a prescription on how we should to about, in the midst of a very volatile political moment, and reclaim democracy? Listen and find out.
