Description

In this episode, Rabbi Daniel Z. Feldman joins us to explore the fascinating themes of his book "Letter and Spirit: Evasion, Avoidance, and Workarounds in the Halachic System". We delve into the intricate strategies and mechanisms that have evolved within Jewish law to navigate complex ethical and legal dilemmas. Rabbi Feldman shares his expertise on how halachic authorities have employed "ha'aramos" to balance competing values and reconcile seemingly irreconcilable tensions. Through our conversation, we gain insight into the dynamic and adaptive nature of the halachic system, and how these strategies continue to shape Jewish legal and ethical discourse.
