Show Notes
Today’s Talmud page, Bava Metzia 97, delivers a rabbinic master class in making clever business deals. Why should you always ask someone for a glass of water before signing on the dotted line? And are you entitled to all of your teacher's money, or is it the other way around? Listen and find out.
Join us Tuesday, June 11 from 9 p.m. to midnight for a special event featuring Liel Leibovitz, Tablet critic-at-large Marco Roth, and special guests reading and moderating a discussion of modernist literature in the upstairs lounge of The Russian Samovar at 256 West 52nd Street in Manhattan. In the spirit of Shavuot, expect riffing on passages by Marcel Proust, James Joyce, and Virginia Woolf, as well as from the Torah. Register here.
