Shalom, friends!
Lilith has entered the chat — and she’s bringing centuries of mystery with her.
Is she a demon, feminist icon or something far more complex? Explore her many lives and legends in my latest glossary entry for @rebootjewish.bsky.social !🦉🌙

Shalom, friends! I partnered with @rebootjewish.bsky.social to write some new entries for their epic glossary page. (Seriously - if you need any Jewish terms defined, check it out.) Up first: Meet the Angel of Death, one of God’s most feared (and busiest!) employees. ⚡️
rebooting.com/glossary/ang...
Meet the Angel of Death — Malach HaMavet — one of God’s most feared (and busiest!) celestial employees. ⚡️ With a poisoned blade, a million watchful eyes, and speed that rivals Michael, Gabriel, and even his nemesis Elijah, he rarely misses a soul. But even he has limits: the holy city of Luz, where death has no power and people live on until they choose to leave its gates. In the Tanach, he appears as Mavet or Mashchit, the divine force sent to carry out God’s darkest work. The image depicts a night sky, a misty foreground, and the angel of death: covered in eyeballs, with a skull face.

Why are they so bad at this 😂
A man tells me Talmud isn’t for women. I reply with beruriah’s famous response: foolish Galilean! Didn’t the sages say don’t talk to women??

On #RoshHashanah, it is the birthday of the world AKA the anniversary of creation. No better time to complete the creation of our “Real Housewives of Gan Eden” #JewishLoreReactions trilogy, than with the story of Eve 2.0. Hang on, I’ve got to go buy a snake bodysuit. 🐍 #gardenofeden

Omg friends new Aesop’s Fable just dropped! (….into a barrel of beer) 😬🐁🍺 REDWALL WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS! Let’s stop reinforcing the narrative of city mouse/field mouse animosity!!!! 😂
Avodah zarah 68b: Rav Shimi of Neharde'a objects to the assumption that a mouse is repulsive: And is it repulsive? But isn't it served at the table of kings and considered a delicacy? Rav Shimi of Neharde'a said in clarification: This is not difficult. This statement, that a mouse is served as a delicacy, is stated with regard to a field mouse, and that statement, that it is repulsive, is stated with regard to a city mouse.

Shalom friends! Sansa goes in for surgery this week to remove a tumor. I'm working on filming as much as I can prior to that so I can release videos (especially the first Lilith story!) during her recovery. 1/

A man on Instagram tells me women need to give up their “eggos” but I’m pretty sure he meant ego. But just in case he didn’t, HE CANNOT HAVE MY WAFFLES!

Hehehehheheheheehe you guys know what I told him 😂😂😂
Angry man says Well, I have listened to two of your commentaries so far and I must say they are quite colorful. Yet, the rabbis say that if a woman learns Talmud they will turn into a s***. Well thank you so much for proving that point and to all the women who commented below my comment. First of all I have the utmost respect for women and they have as an important task in this world as any man does. In fact a man gives a woman his seed and a woman gives back something akin to perfect. A full-born baby. There's no reason to argue over who is more important. Hashem created man and woman to work hand in hand in this world. With that being said when you give over your colorful commentary and all the women are yip yapping away on it, well that's kind of S***** So congratulations you have proven and are proof positive that woman will take the talmud and bang it down a few notches while they do the same to themselves. Perhaps we should all stay in our own lane in regards to learning certain things. Peace and love until the next time because I have no doubt you will have something to say on every daf.

Shalom friends! Welcome to this minisode, in which we discover Abraham had his own tractate Avodah Zarah, which was a lot longer than ours, which makes me shudder to think what his Bava’s were like.

Well if anyone wants to learn about teshuva….um I would not recommend this ableist hypocrite.
A man online says he’s disappointed because I took time off for my health and he’s upset I didn’t film more. My response tells him my health is more important than what he wants. In which this alleged rabbi talks about teshuva which is pretty funny all things considered. “Truth, remorse, responsibility” lol where

Shalom, friends!
I’ll be taking a hot second away from filming (like 9 days lol.)

#DafReactions will return for Tractate Avodah Zarah! (Feels like I’ve been training for this one for years!)

Stay safe, take care of each other. See you soon! ❤️

Rava says: once you pop, you can’t stop
A page of Sefaria, shevuot 28a, where Rava discusses what happens if someone takes an oath not to eat a second loaf of bread if he ate a first one. But then totally ate the first one
