Welcome to the Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Esther Israel looks at Masechet Yevamot, Daf 104.
The Halitsah ceremony involves three main components: The removal of the man’s shoe, her spitting, and her recitation of her line “thus shall be done to the man who will not build up a line/ house for his brother!”.The Mishna on daf 104 checks if all of these three are necessary conditions for the halitsah to be valid and binding; the g’mara draws further practical implications from here.
The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
This podcast is a collaboration with The Conservative Yeshiva in Jerusalem.

EstheI Israel has been a Mishna, Talmud and Bible instructor in the Conservative Yeshiva in Jerusalem since 1998, having lived in Jerusalem since age 19, when she herself came to study in various women's yeshivot (and other institutions of high learning) in the days when yeshiva studies for Israeli women was a bizarre notion. Other loves are her family and the neighborhood community garden.
