Course in Talmudic law offered at center
In response to the successful turnout in 2006 for “You Be the Judge,” an interactive course allowing students to explore the Talmud’s thinking about civil law, the Rohr Jewish Learning Institute is launching “You Be the Judge II.”
“You Be the Judge II” presents students with real cases brought before Beit din, the court system of Jewish law, and compares Talmudic analysis with the contemporary approach taken in U.S. courts. Topics include business ethics, property rights, and employment practices, and each lesson provides an opportunity to question, discuss, and argue, based on principle and precedent.
The course will be offered at Chabad Jewish Center of Laguna Beach starting 7 p.m. Wednesday, for six Wednesdays. Cost for the course is $80 per person, or $144 for couples.
