In today’s Talmud page, Kiddushin 52, we read the story of Rabbi Yehudah not wanting to allow the students of Rabbi Meir to enter the study hall as he thought that they were not there to study, but rather just to be an annoyance. In light of the recent presidential Republican debate, where those on the stage appeared at times to just be there to be vexatious, we welcome back Presidential historian Tevi Troy to tell the story of when Harry Truman was strong-armed by a friend to meet with Chaim Weizmann, which lead to his recognizing the State of Israel, against the advice of his national security establishment. How important can it be to have an annoying voice in your ear? Listen and find out. Like the show? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter. Send us a note at takeone@tabletmag.com.
