For years, Dovid Taub has been fascinated by the Adnei Hasadeh, also known as the Yedua – the creature whose bone is used in in the Yidoni ritual forbidden by the Torah in this week’s parshah. Taub takes the opportunity piece together the details of this creature from various sources, as well as find alternate versions of what it could be.

Thank you for sharing this!
You kept within the framework of authentic research – quoting your sources, searching for the earliest reference to a topic, sharing context and background of additional information, etc, all while researching an inane and out of the box topic. You kept us curious and interested as you led us along a confusing path with surprising clarity, constantly summarizing our progress to keep us in the loop.
Makom Shelibo Chafetz at it’s finest! Well done! Please keep them coming!
Thank you. A special approach to the parshah.
This was great. I’ve always wondered what the Yadua is. Especially confusing because Rashi said its name is “Yadua” which means “well known”. Ok Rashi, then why don’t you just tell us the name! 😀
I somehow remember seeing it referred to as a bird however…
