Yevamot 106: Paying Off the Yavam
Talking Talmud - A podcast by Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon
Categories:
During the process of yibum/chalitzah - when a yevamah refuses to stand because she's refusing yibum, and insisting on chalitzah. The sage then advises her how to maneuver to ensure that she isn't stuck in an unwanted yibum - but does that work? And if it does, is it ethical? Also, a new mishnah, the last of the chapter. It reviews specific procedure of chalitzah in court. Plus, R. Hyrcanus and reading the passage of yibum/chalitzah.
