Episode description
Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Pesachim 69 and 70, make the curious connection between the Korban Pesach, the sacrificial Paschal lamb, and Brit Mila, or circumcision. Sara Fredman Aeder returns to shed light on the uncomfortable similarities between both practices, and what she, as an Orthodox mother to a newborn baby boy, felt before his Bris. Why all this bloodletting in our ancient rituals? Listen and find out.
