Take One: Shekalim 14 and 15 - a podcast by Tablet Magazine

Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Shekalim 14 and 15, get back to the basic question that haunts us all: Why do bad things happen to good people? Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to talk about the unlikely figure of Nehunya the ditch digger, a righteous man punished for reasons unknown, and what his story can tell us about the mechanics of Divine justice. What is the deeper meaning of an empty hole? Listen and find out.
