Take One: Yoma 51

Today’s Daf Yomi page, Yoma 51, contains a delightful discussion of the Parochet, or the curtain separating the Holy of the Holies from the rest of the Temple. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin returns to discuss the meaning of this sacred curtain, and what it can teach us about finding holiness even in boundaries and limitations. How does the Parochet continue to inspire contemporary synagogue architecture and design? Listen and find out.  Like the show? Send us a note at takeone@tabletmag.com.
