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

The crisis of Orthodox teachers leaving... and not coming back. (And they have good reasons, too.)

"A government that arose through blind hatred, out of evil argument not for the sake of heaven... a cursed government..."

A thread about religious Knesset members and the language they sometimes use against their opponents.

So my @Delta flight to New York was canceled, after an initial leg from Tel Aviv to Boston. I was told by an agent this morning that I would be notified about any changes by email. Nope. I found out by showing up. Not cool, Delta. (Yes cool @7News who interviewed me just now.)

All podcasters who use @SoundCloud: maybe this latest problem (the server 100% down) means that it's time to take the plunge and switch to an actual podcasting host like @libsyn. That's my plan...

Has Religious Zionism lost its way as Israel's moral voice? Listen to this fascinating interview with @YKleinHalevi to hear his take... and what can be done to help fix the problems that we face.
