• Zevachim 93 – Every Drop Counts

  On today’s page, Zevachim 93, the Talmud teaches that even a trace of sacrificial blood must be treated with the same care as the entire offering. Beneath the technical details lies a profound moral vision about the holiness of life itself. If no drop of blood is expendable, how should that change how we see human dignity? Listen and find out.

• Zevachim 91 and 92 - Keep It Burning

  On today’s pages, Zevachim 91 and 92, the Talmud debates waiting for coals to naturally become ash rather than snuffing out the fire.

• Zevachim 89 and 90 - The Rhythm of Ritual

  On today’s pages, Zevachim 89 and 90, the rabbis teach that what is frequent takes precedence over what is rare, elevating the daily offering above even the holiest special occasions. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to show how this principle reveals the overlooked spiritual power of consistency—the quiet, steady commitments that shape who we become far more than moments of intensity. What might our spiritual lives look like if we approached them more like Cal Ripken? Listen and find out.

• Zevachim 88 - Good Enough

  On today’s page, Zevachim 88, the rabbis debate just how clean the priestly garments must be and whether lightly soiled clothing even needs a full wash. Their insight suggests that not everything requires the same level of cleaning. How do we know when something truly needs refreshing and when good enough is good enough? Listen and find out.

• Zevachim 87 - Higher Ground

  On today’s page, Zevachim 87, the rabbis debate whether suspended offerings become sanctified by the altar’s “airspace,” expanding holiness into the invisible vertical realm above it. That same question animates New York City’s obsession with air rights, where the unseen world above a roofline becomes the site of future growth. What happens if we start treating the space above our own lives—our ambitions, potential, imagination—as buildable terrain? Listen and find out.
