60 — Mikeitz: Fetch Me A Sword

 

This week, we learn about how camels are nonbinary, attempt to define what makes a "real parent," and dissect a famous story in which the women are way cooler than we were led to believe as children. (Like, for real, there are some single moms in this story who maybe do sex work and maybe are lovers, and definitely roommates who do not get along with the existing power structures of kings and judges.)

Full transcript here.

Lulav mentions doing quiz bowl with NAQT. Here's the reading from the OU rabbi Lulav also talked about.

This week's reading was I Kings 3:15–4:1. Next week's reading is Ezekiel 37:15-28.
