This two-session series will explore common and not so common halakhic questions that arise during the period of Elul, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. We will examine how to unpack the elements of the “she’eilah” and the differing approaches that can be, and are, proffered as a resolution or guidance in the case. We will explore topics in tefillah, customs, and when to violate the prescribed laws that arise in the real life experiences of Jews, both past and present.
Two Sundays, 8PM Eastern
September 14th & September 28th
