Sanhedrin 94: The Writing of the Verses of Biblical History
Talking Talmud - Un pódcast de Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
Categorías:
A focus on the Assyrian king Sennacherib, and the Jewish king, Hizkiyahu (Hezekiah). Why is the wicked king given an honorific, asks the Gemara. And answers: He didn't use derogatory language when speaking about the land of Israel. Is that really the case?! From Sennacherib, we move on to Hezekiah -- and the discussion of him as a possible messiah, which would have meant Sennacherib was to be part of the "Gog and Magog" battle for final redemption (which clearly didn't happen that way). Plus, the exile of the 10 tribes, and a sage's need of an Aramaic translation of the Hebrew biblical text.
