Summary

Unorthodox is off this week, but we wanted to bring you the latest from two of our other podcasts. First you'll hear an update from our Tablet colleague Armin Rosen, who spent last week reporting from the aftermath of the building collapse in Surfside, Florida, and who dropped by Take One, our daily Talmud podcast, to weigh in on a page of Talmud that feels eerily relevant to the Surfside tragedy. Then you'll hear Episode 4 of our kids quiz show Hebrew School, which is back for Season 2, hosted by Sabrina Marielle Friedman and Frank Spiro. We'll be back next week with a new episode of Unorthodox.

into two of our other podcasts. First, you'll hear an update from our colleague,

Armin Rosen, who spent last week reporting from the aftermath of the building collapse

in Surfside, Florida. Armin dropped by Take One, our daily

Talmud podcast hosted by On Orthodox's Only Elle Leboets, to weigh in on a page of Talmud

that deals eerily relevant to the Surfside tragedy. Then you'll hear episode four of

Hey there, and welcome back to Take One, the podcast that brings you just one timely

page of Talmud every day. Usually we turn to the Talmud for time less wisdom for the

eternal teachings of our ancestors, but sometimes we are startled to find, in these ever-relevant

1:10.8

pages, a note, a discussion that feels a little bit too painfully current. Reading today's

1:17.8

page, Yoma 83, I found the following passage, have a listen. Similarly, with regard to one

1:25.8

upon whom a rock slide fell, and there is uncertainty, whether he is there under the debris

or whether he is not there, and there is uncertainty, whether he is still alive or whether he is dead,

1:46.8

the debris. If they found him alive after beginning to clear the debris, they continue to clear

1:51.8

the pile until they can extricate him, and if they found him dead, they should leave him,

since one may not desecrate Shabbat to preserve the dignity of the dead. This, of course,
