From political and financial scandals to rapid progress in biomedical science and technology, the complex issues of modern society are, at their core, issues of ethical and moral concern. Now more than ever, we require a solid understanding of how Jewish ethics can inform our discussions and decisions about the critical questions of the day. Judaism has a long history of wrestling with moral questions, responding to them in a way that considers all sides of an issue. Grapple with today’s most pressing ethical dilemmas with a curriculum from the Jewish Theological Seminary. This course includes videos featuring JTS faculty, other expert scholars, and practitioners in the field; classical and contemporary texts.
Thursdays beginning February 11 through March 11 from 6:30 PM to 7:45 PM.
Cost: $72
Faculty: Rabbi A. Nitzan Stein Kokin
This course is a partnership with the BJE and Beth El Congregation.
