Episode Synopsis

The bizarre case of quasi-levirate marriage • Chalitzah (severance of the levirate bond) is not considered an imperative in relation to levirate marriage • How do we know that second degree relatives, Shniyos, are prohibited from a biblically derived tradition? • How does the Maggid Mishnah prove the paradoxical nature of forbidden incestuous relationships? • In what manner is the violation of deceptive weights and measures more severe than illicit relationships? • Is one's father-in-law's wife always prohibited? • May stepchildren marry? • May a king's wife remarry?
