We make religion irrelevant when we lock it up in the house of prayer, keeping it away from the streets. For our Judaism to matter, it must respond deeply to - and even be molded by - the society in which we are enmeshed. As a living tradition, the Torah must be applied to the most pressing moral and political issues of our time. We need to live in the public arena with our full being, our common responsibilities transcending our individual professions. Spiritual life is truly at the core of the crude realities unfolding all around us - and when we ignore these realities, we are like fish unaware of the very water in which they swim. Jewish Ethics & Social Justice is a sweeping meditation on how we can make Judaism universally relevant again, exploring issues like hunger, prison reform, and worker rights through a particularly Jewish ethical lens. Learn about the core values of the Jewish tradition, gain a more profound understanding of the timeless issues of power, privilege, race, and wealth, and find fiery inspiration in this urgent call to action.
