Today’s Talmud pages, Bava Kama 94 and 95 ask whether it is allowed to say a blessing over something that is ill-gotten. Rabbi Dovid Beshevkin returns to explore the debate amongst the Rabbis on whether it is appropriate to make a blessing over unkosher food, or if that would be considered blasphemy. We explore the question of whether saying a blessing isthe act of asking for permission or an act of recognition of the creator of all things. Should you make a blessing over food if you are eating on a Yom Kippur? Listen and find out. Like the show? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter. Send us a note at takeone@tabletmag.com.
