Responsa is a genre of Jewish literature focused on legal decisions and rulings made by rabbinic authorities. These texts typically present questions and answers regarding various aspects of Jewish practice and cover nearly every facet of Jewish life. Each monthly session will explore a specific theme in Jewish tradition, accompanied by a relevant responsum on the topic. This class merges Jewish learning with practical application, encouraging participants to reflect on their own relationship to Jewish observance. Join us as we dive into a new legal topic each session, enhancing both your textual skills and your understanding of Jewish knowledge along the way.
