Welcome to the Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Robert Scheinberg looks at Masechet Sukkah Daf 47.
What is the holiday of Shmini Atzeret? What makes it different from the rest of Sukkot — and in what ways does it resemble the rest of Sukkot? (And should we even refer to “the rest of” Sukkot, if Shmini Atzeret is really its own separate holiday?)
The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
