Description

Are Zebu kosher? Wait, what's a Zebu? In this episode, R. Binyomin Fishman breaks down a disagreement between The Chazon Ish (Hilchos Beheima v'Chaya, no. 11) and R. Yisroel Belsky (Responsa Shulchan HaLevi 1:19) on the nature of Zebu, Bison and other marvelous animals - and what their kashrus status means for the broader question of how we determine normative halachic practice. To find out more about R. Fishman's projects or for information about speaking arrangements, he can be contacted at his email which will be included in the show notes ([email protected]).
