Din & Daf: Conceptual Analysis of Halakha Through Case Study with Dr. Elana Stein Hain

In the very middle pesukim of the Torah, Moshe and Aharon argue over the laws of aninut, the period between the loss and the burial of a loved one: Moshe thinks Aharon and his sons should eat the korban hatat meat in the aftermath of the death of Nadav and Avihu, but Aharon disagrees and has already gone ahead and burned it. Aharon’s approach becomes our north star for the laws of aninut. But what is the character of aninut exactly? How does it differ from shiva, for example?
