Show Notes

Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Yoma 84 and 85, ask a poignant question: How does divine forgiveness work? Does it just arrive each year, on Yom Kippur, requiring little action on our part? Or must we earn it? Rabbi Shlomo Zuckier joins us to parse this deep theological conundrum, and explain what the fierce Talmudic debate it inspired can still teach us today. How did the nature of absolution change once the Temple was destroyed? Listen and find out.
