It’s the final stretch of Berakhot — now’s the time to catch up if you are behind and still want to!
In which the topics that we didn’t address in this daf, as well as those that we did, all merit massive discussion. From the roles of men and women – and whether the Talmud relates to what it presents as prescriptive or descriptive (innate, required, or simply a matter of what happens) to the far-reaching implications of one’s “yetzer hara” on one’s behavior to the vast challenges of martyrdom, there is much more to say here (and those are just the topics we touched on).
