In this episode of Dear Rabbi, I continue our discussion about why Jews don't mix meat and milk, focusing specifically on the biblical sources behind this kosher practice. I respond to claims made by Elon Gilad, examining each argument in detail while explaining how the Torah works with both written and oral components. I clarify how the three repetitions of "do not cook a kid in its mother's milk" in the Torah establish three distinct prohibitions: not cooking meat and milk together, not eating them together, and not benefiting from such mixtures. Beyond addressing alternative interpretations of the Hebrew word "bishul" (cooking), I illustrate the importance of the oral tradition that has preserved accurate Torah reading for thousands of years across Jewish communities worldwide. This episode provides insights into how Jewish dietary laws are anchored in biblical sources, the relationship between written and oral Torah, and why intellectual honesty matters when interpreting Jewish texts.
