Sins That Sting (Moed Katan 17a)

2021/10/14

Moed Katan 17a A wasp came and stung the ostracized scholar on his penis and he died. Because he was a great Torah scholar, they took him into the caves in which the pious are interred in order to bury him there, but the caves did not accept him. A snake stood at the entrance of the caves and did not let them pass. They then took him into the caves of the judges, and they accepted him. Follow Dr. Bat Sheva Marcus!
