Shalom, friends!
I did not expect the #talmudic tractate about meal offerings to feature so many deep, heart to heart existential convos between God and God’s besties, but here we are!
First with Moses and now with Abraham.

Did the priests in the Temple in Jerusalem get to put anything on those sacrifices to enhance the flavor before they ate them? A1? Relish? Ketchup? Salt??? Tune in as I discover just how much God loves sodium. Welcome to #DafReactions Menachot 21: Salt Bae
