Description
In today’s Talmud pages, Gittin 66 and 67, Isi ben Yehuda recount the praise of the Sages, listing each scholar with a descriptor of their wisdom. One Rabbi however, Rabbi Yehudah, is mentioned as “a scholar when he chooses.” Rabbi Dovid Beshevkin joins us to say that rather than the type of language that you wouldn’t want to see on your report card, this descriptor is a praise in that R. Yehudah was able to find small times within his life to study. What can we learn from praising others? Listen and find out.
