Recorded at Judaism, Democracy, and the Ethics of Inclusion
Thursday, June 12, 2014
Despite the presentation of neat consensus within early Jewish judicial courts, the Torah recognizes the existence of the conscientious objector, the zaqen mamre, and the Rabbis note the significance of lo titgodedu, an injunction not to become fractious. In this session we will explore the contours of each of these examples of discord within Jewish policy-making and see which, if either, can offer a lens through which to think about the contemporary North American Jewish landscape regarding questions of inclusion and debate.
You care about Israel, peoplehood, and vibrant, ethical Jewish communities. We do too.
