Welcome to the Hundred and Fifteenth episode of Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Justin David looks at Masechet Shabbat Daf 116. Who is the “Other?” And how do we engage the “Other” in our midst?The rabbis grapple with this question as this daf turns to the reality of “minim,”heretics, or, more accurately, Hebrew Christians who shared daily life and muchmore with the Sages of the Talmud.
