Gittin 15 – Being Half Pure

Take One Daf Yomi

Today’s Talmud page, Gittin 15, ask the question of whether two people who share a ritually appropriate amount of water to wash their hands are ritually pure, or if the act of sharing the water, means that neither of them are using the amount needed to fulfill the mitzvah. Rabbi Diana Fersko joins us to explore the ways in which the rabbis made it possible to fulfill a ritual obligation even when things are not as precise as they should be. Can two people wash their hands with the same water? Listen and find out.
