Yevamot 17: Matrilineal Descent - Talmud-style

Talking Talmud - A podcast by Yardaena Osband & Anne Gordon

Concerns about those with questionable lineage, which sparks a discussion about the 10 Tribes that were exiled in the era of the prophets. Including the question of Jewish heritage in a small amount, and the question of mamzerut that might emerge from the more questionable relationships... But how likely was this really?!

Also, a new chapter, and new mishnah: the case of brothers who were not alive at the same time - how does that case of yibum work out?
