Talmud Tisch - Intermediate Talmud Tractate Sanhedrin: The Talmud on the World to Come Lesson Eight Outstanding Loans & Slave Reparations: "Defending Israel in Antiquity II" On the heels of a dramatic legal showdown between a sagacious hunchback and descendants of an original Canaanite tribe; the same rabbi, now goes up against the legal representatives of the Egyptian nation. In the powerful courtroom of Alexander the Great, the biblical narrative is presented as proof that the nation of Israel was required to make exorbitant payments towards their neighbors. In a stunning turnaround, the Sage brilliantly uses the very same narrative to fend off their demands and instead sue for slave reparations, causing the Egyptians to abandon their claims and flee.
