Organic Torah | Mandela, Polemics and the Jews

Mandela, Polemics and the Jews. December 30, 2013. Click here to read the post on The Many Stories of Passover. Sorry about any inconvenience. I’ve been thinking recently about how polemics can impoverish us. When we engage in polemics — taking two opposite positions, “poles,” and “polarizing” into our corners — each side becomes only a caricature of what they really are: we all become one dimensional. We are still very much doing it today. It seems to me that instead of the embarrassing scene of the Pri...

Organic Torah | Challah and Halakhah
http://organictorah.org/challah-and-halakhah
July 29, 2014. There is no one set of principles or abstract deductions on what is Right or Truth. Rather, there are stories, examples and arguments all woven together. Any rabbi or practicing Jew who wants to decide a question of Jewish law needs to have a feel for the law and a feel for the community and the individual people involved. Then a decision can come out exactly right for that moment. Whether its baking Challah, building a rock wall, or trying to figure out what God’s will is for me in this m...

Organic Torah | The Many Stories of Passover
http://organictorah.org/the-many-stories-of-passover
The Many Stories of Passover. March 31, 2014. One of the simple but important sentences that we read on the Seder night is: Even if all of us were wise, discerning, venerated, and completely knowledgeable in the Torah, it is still a mitzvah for us to tell the story of the deliverance from Egypt. This sentence presumes a very simple question: If I already know the story what’s the point of telling it all over again? Like many myths, it has elements that are harsh and cruel: We often struggle over the unfa...
