Take One: Beitzah 3 and 4

Take One Daf Yomi

Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Beitzah 3 and 4, strike a surprisingly modern note when they bring up the concept of confirmation bias. Dr. Michelle Waldman Sarna, a psychologist and educator, joins us to explain this idea, and how the Talmud used it, way before therapists did, to help people find their place in a community. Why does one single dissident stand out even if a thousand others all fall into line? Listen and find out.
