The Philosophy and Development of Halachah with Rabbi Jason Goldstein

In this class we will explore the halachic process by examining a series of practical topics, such as kashrut, Shabbat, and prayer. We will start each unit by reflecting on the relevant Biblical verses, move on to the Talmudic discussion, and continue to trace the conversation all the way through modern day commentators. Along the way we will meet some of the most important figures in the history of halakhic discourse. English translation will be provided for all texts. In the first trimester we will learn select topics of the laws of kashrut.
