On today’s pages, Zevachim 119 and 120, we reach the conclusion of the tractate and step back to ask what the entire world of sacrificial worship has been teaching us all along. Rabbi David Bashevkin joins us to reflect on why the Talmud insists on studying offerings in a modern world that resists them—and how a single diminished letter at the start of Leviticus reframes existence itself as a response to a divine call. What does it mean to live in a world of purpose rather than coincidence? Listen and find out.
