Today’s Daf Yomi page, Megillah 9, recounts a strange incident involving an evil king imprisoning 72 rabbis and demanding that each of them translate the Bible. Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to explain why each of them translated it in precisely the same way, and why, historically, biblical translations were frowned upon. What famous rabbinic joke did the incident inspire? Listen and find out. Like the show? Send us a note at takeone@tabletmag.com.
