Part 1 of Pru Urvu: Torah Perspectives on Women’s Fertility

In this first episode of our Pru Urvu podcast series, Ita Broh lays out the foundational sources behind the mitzvah Pru Urvu and how it relates to women. She explores:

• What are the sources in the Torah for the mitzvah of having children? What are the specific guidelines for the mitzvah?
• What reasons are given for the mitzvah and why is it considered such an important value in Yiddishkeit?
• Are women obligated in this mitzvah? Why or why not?
• Is their role in the fulfillment of the mitzvah different from men and if so, how?

This episode lays the groundwork for the discussion in all future episodes in this series.

Welcome to our new podcast series, where we'll explore everything you ever wanted to know about hair covering. We approach the topic from a new angle, giving you the inside scoop on how the halachos of Kisui Rosh developed, following the chain from the original sources in the Torah, through the texts of the Mishna, Gemara, Rishonim and Acharonim.

In this introductory episode, we introduce Menucha Schwartz, our guest for this series and the genius behind the original Kisui Rosh course we launched three years ago. She talks about the process of researching and writing on this topic, we give an outline for the upcoming episodes and we talk about what we hope you, our audience, can gain from listening.
