Take One: Yoma 44

Take One Daf Yomi

Today’s Daf Yomi page, Yoma 44, brings up an interesting question: Why did the ancient rabbis believe that burning incense made up for the sin of Lashon Harah, or gossip? Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to explain the mystical bonds that tie these two actions together, and how the Hassidic master Rabbi Tzadok taught us a moving lesson about the inclination we all feel to sometimes speak ill of each other. How should we understand our tendency to slander, and how should we fight it? Listen and find out.
