Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Eruvin 61 and 62, ask pointed questions about how the whole idea of an eruv pertains to our non-Jewish neighbors, which is really another way of asking how do we conceive of insiders and outsiders in our midst. Charlotte Fonrobert, professor of religious studies at Stanford University, joins us to discuss what the eruv can teach us about setting up sovereign spaces and navigating complex political realities. What inspiration can the idea of an eruv give us in our troubled political time? Listen and find out.
