Beyond Dispute: Debates That Shape Jewish Life (curriculum produced by the Jewish Theological Seminary)
Taught by Rabbi Peltz, Rabbi Wexler, and Rabbi Lindemann

Debates — philosophical, spiritual, ethical, and cultural — are at the heart of Judaism and Jewish life. Are religion and reason compatible? Can Jewish law change based on context? How do we teach and talk about the Holocaust and the State of Israel? Should we prioritize Jewish causes or universal causes in our giving? Is our relationship with God defined by human obligation or divine compassion?... and more! In this class, we will look at how these debates have been manifested over the course of Jewish history, and discuss their continued resonance for contemporary Jewish life.
