In today’s Talmud pages, Kiddushin 42, 43 and 44, the Rabbis discuss whether someone you appoint as an agent can serve as a witness. To meditate on the question of being a witness, and in commemoration of the 50th Anniversary of the Yom Kippur War, Michael Millenson joins us to share his experience of being a student in Israel during the Yom Kippur War and bearing witness to it firsthand. How does the act of seeing something first hand impact your thoughts on it years later? Listen and find out.
