Sotah 31: Love and Fear

Talking Talmud - A podcast by Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

A daf that opens with aggadata: Job's worship of God from love, as explicated in the text. Plus, Abraham's worship of love of God. As compared to the one who serves God out of fear. Also, the 6th chapter, with its single mishnah. On witnesses and the question of a woman who has secluded herself, and who is considered a reliable witness - to establish her as a sotah or prevent her from becoming a sotah, for that matter.
