In this episode of Hebrew Voices #219 - Halakhic Purist Rabbi: Part 1, Nehemia brings on “Halakhic purist” Rabbi Asher Meza to discuss the distinction between Jewish law and traditional folklore and how true Rabbinic ordination ended in the Mishnaic period, in some respect making all modern Rabbis “fake.”









I look forward to reading your comments!
