Welcome to the Two Hundred and Sixteenth episode of Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Abby Sosland looks at Masechet Eruvin Daf 61.

The beginning of chapter 6 poses the challenge of living among non-Jews. How do we build an eruv if we are sharing space with people outside of the Jewish community?

Rabbi Abby Sosland is the Morah Ruchanit (Spiritual Advisor) for the high school at Solomon Schechter Westchester, where she teaches Talmud, Bible, Philosophy and Prayer. Her chapter “Crime and Punishment” — about the laws of capital punishment and incarceration– appears in The Observant Life: The Wisdom of Conservative Judaism for Contemporary Jews (Martin Cohen and Michael Katz, Rabbinical Assembly, 2012). She runs a free High Holiday service at Town and Village Synagogue in downtown Manhattan.

The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
