<![CDATA[<p>In this episode, <strong>Rabbi Barry Gelman</strong> shares with us a personal case he dealt with regarding a family who was adamant about reburying their deceased six feet under. Rabbi Gelman shares with us the responsum he received from <strong>Eretz Hemdah (</strong><em><strong>B'Mareh HaBazak </strong></em><strong>7:81)</strong> and how it made its way into a Texas courtroom. This is a fascinating discussion that incorporates Halacha, the American legal system and a regrettable family drama all wrapped up together. </p>
