Show Notes

Today’s Daf Yomi page, Yoma 31, asks a big question: How, exactly, do rabbis decide and interpret Jewish law? And why does the Talmud tell us that all the ordinances they instituted were decided in parallel to the ones decreed by the Torah? 

Rabbi Ari Lamm joins us to explain the foundational principle of personal and communal responsibility, and how it enabled Jewish life to survive and thrive for millennia. How does Judaism manage to be simultaneously top-down and bottom-up, and why does that matter? Listen and find out.
