Episode 6 – Halachot of Sexuality, Wasting Seed, and the Influence of the Zohar

December 10, 2017 10:41 am

THIS PODCAST CONTAINS EXPLICIT MATERIAL. LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.

Rabbi Yosef Karo’s halachic opinion on non-vaginal intercourse, as expressed in the Shulchan Aruch, is often seen as standard and normative. The reality, however, is much more complex. In this episode of the Orthodox Conundrum podcast, Scott Kahn talks with Rabbi Yaakov Shapiro, author of Halachic Positions: What Judaism Really Says About Passion in the Marital Bed, about the influence of the Zohar upon the presumed normative halacha, and about the surprising halachic ramifications with which most people are unfamiliar.

(This is the fourth episode of a multi-part series on Sexuality and Jewish Law on The Orthodox Conundrum.)

To order Rabbi Shapiro’s book, go to www.amazon.com/Halachic-Position…alachic+positions

In today's news, the Israeli population is furious, society is increasingly angry and divided, and Bibi fires the defense minister who dared to put security first. Meanwhile, he tweets that electricity prices are going down by 2.4% next month.

Purchased at the YU Seforim Sale in 1991. Kol Dodi Haggadah, by Rav Dovid Feinstein zt"l. Used for the past 32 years, and it shows.

What haggadah have you been using, which lovingly shows its age and consistent use? Send a picture, too.

The great @EasterbrookG started a substack and I just subscribed. It's called All Predictions Wrong and I am genuinely psyched.
