Welcome to the Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Barry Chesler looks at Masechet Ketubot, Daf 29.
Beginning of Chapter 3. The monetary penalty for sleeping with na’arot, women between the ages of 12 and 12 ½ against their will, in particular, those groups of women who are either not full members of the Jewish community and therefore invalid for marriage, or whose connection is incestuous. Derivation of the reason for the monetary penalty based on scriptural exegesis.
The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
