Bava Batra 102, 103, 104 - Rocking Out

Take One Daf Yomi

Today’s Talmud pages, Bava Batra 102, 103, and 104, spend much time discussing rocky fields. But there's more to the debate than merely figuring out how to sell and buy land fairly; the wise rabbis give us a masterclass in how to avoid big, abstract, and ultimately meaningless terms and instead learn how to really think. Why do we abhor uncertainty, and how may we come to live with it, if not love it? Listen and find out.
