Today’s Talmud page, Sotah 35, continues the story of the spies who went into the promised land and returned with reports for Moshe about what lies within. As the story retells, two of the spies share that the land is wonderful, and ten respond that the Israelites will be like ants to the people of the land, and that they should not go in. Tablet Editor in Chief Alana Newhouse join us to share a story of the ways that slander, whether true or false, when verbalized impact all who are in the vicinity. What should you do with your true feelings without creating a toxic environment? Listen and find out?
