Dr. Tamara Morsel-Eisenberg: Discovering Your Halachic Story [Halacha 3/4]

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Dr. Tamara Morsel-Eisenberg - historian and Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows - about the history of halacha.

While we take the system of halacha as we know it today for granted, many factors contributed to its current state. We discuss some of these factors, as well as some pivotal moments in halacha’s history, like the publication of the Shulchan Aruch.

- Has halacha always been as standardized and abstract a system as it is today?
- What factors have contributed to the state of halacha today?

Tune in to hear a conversation about the history of halacha.
Interview begins at 16:47.
