Show Notes

The Talmud on the Megillah, Lesson 11 Daf/Page 12a King Achashverosh tried to dazzle his guests with someone else’s clothes, and how he sought to curry favor with his own high society. A careful analysis of his iconoclastic political strategies has our Sages divided: some seeing a “crazy as a fox” brilliant operator, while others saw a totally incompetent fool who just got lucky! We conclude with a penetrating look into what sins the Jewish people committed to warrant such harsh punishment.
