Description

What is the reason for the Torah's prohibition to engage in Arayos? We focus on the approaches of Rambam and Ramban. We then note possible implications of their views and share an insight from Rabbi Lamm (based on Rashi and Kli Yakar) about the challenge when living in a society with different standards.
