Bava Metzia 72 and 73 – Coming Home

Today’s Talmud pages, Bava Metzia 72 and 73, talk about the life changing power of conversion. We share a story from the 2018 Conversion episode of Unorthodox about a 13-year-old converting to Judaism. What happens when a Jew borrows money from a gentile and then that gentile converts? Listen and find out.
