Reading Josephus Flavius in the Bathroom
Question
Is there any problem with reading the books of Josephus in the bathroom, since theological matters are mentioned there?
Answer
In my opinion, it is permitted to read even actual theology books there.
Excellent. I’ll put the trilogy in the newspaper basket next to the toilet; hopefully by this coming Passover I’ll merit finishing it.
