Gittin 2 - Welcome To Tractate Gittin

Today’s Talmud page, Gittin 2, introduces us to a new tractate that’s all about the get, the Jewish divorce document. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us with a preview of his absolute favorite tractate, a tractate that is written backwards. What does the fact that we start with the handing over of the divorce decree before we understand the process teach us? Listen and find out. Like the show? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.
