This episode of the Tradition Podcast is being released on Rosh Hodesh Iyar, the tenth yahrzeit of Rav Aharon Lichtenstein zt”l. In eulogizing his father-in-law, Rabbi Soloveitchik, R. Lichtenstein observed that the Rav was a “sui generis sage—he bestrode American Orthodoxy like a colossus, transcending many of its internal fissures.” Such could be said about R. Lichtenstein himself, expanding the width of the colossus' stance to include religious life in Israel as well, where he made his home as Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivat Har Etzion for over 40 years. TRADITION's recently released Spring 2025 contains a section of essays exploring R. Lichtenstein's teachings and thought – and is a complement to our special enlarged winter 2014 issue dedicated to R. Lichtenstein as well (a volume planned as a tribute but whose timing very shortly before his passing meant it was received by our readers as a memorial volume). That issue, guest edited by Yitzchak Blau, Alan Jotkowitz, and Reuven Ziegler, is available in our open-access archives. Now, a decade later, we bring you a never-before published essay by R. Lichtenstein, “Relevance and Reverence” (open access), exploring some of the challenges in Jewish education at the time he first delivered the ideas as a talk in 1984 – and analyzed by Michael S. Berger, Dean of Yeshiva University's Azrieli Graduate School of Education, who writes on the ongoing relevance of “Relevance and Reverence.” In this episode, we talk with Berger about the topics raised in the two essays. Later in the episode we hear from Shlomo Zuckier about his contribution to the volume, revisiting R. Lichtenstein's classic essay, “Does Jewish Tradition Recognize an Ethic Independent of Halakha?” Zuckier, a research associate at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton and consulting editor at TRADITION, penned an impressive and sweeping survey of the impact and reception of “Ethic Independent,” which originally appeared 50 years ago. Watch a video version of the recording. Subscribers can access all the content in this new issue at TraditionOnline.org or enjoy the print copy which should be arriving in post boxes in the coming days. In our open-access archives you can find all of R. Lichtenstein's many contributions to TRADITION over the years.The post Rav Lichtenstein's Legacy first appeared on Tradition Online.

In this episode of the TRADITION Podcast, Mali Brofsky and Mark Smilowitz discuss the central thesis of his recent essay, “Esther and the Spies: A Bible-Based Symbolic Meaning of Walled Cities from the Time of Joshua” which appeared in our Fall 2024 issue and is now open access at TraditonOnline.org. Smilowitz explains how, through an analysis of the textual connection between the walled cities in the time of Joshua and those in the Purim story, he has uncovered a message about how the Jewish nation is enjoined to move from fear to courage through our connection to faith during times of crisis. The two discuss the importance of reading halakhic and traditional texts with an eye toward understanding their deeper philosophical, theological, and ethical messages, and also consider the significance of Smilowitz's message regarding faith and meaning, how we see this experience reflected in our own time, and how it can serve as a source of support during the great challenges facing us today. Mali Brofsky, MSW, a member of TRADITION's editorial board, is a senior faculty member at MMY and a social worker in private practice; Rabbi Mark Smilowitz, a veteran educator in Israel and the United States, recently completed a doctorate on the thought of Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik at Hebrew University. Read “Esther and the Spies” at TraditionOnline.org. Halakha mandates a separate date for Purim for cities that had walls during the era of Joshua. Commentators have been puzzled by the selection of the era of Joshua in particular, as opposed to other, more obvious choices (such as the period of the Purim story itself). The Talmud points to a source which seems to rely on a mere technicality without providing a satisfying thematic connection between Joshua and Esther. Smilowitz's essay probes the broader context of source through an exploration of the early chapters of Deuteronomy alongside the story of the sin of the spies in order to demonstrate a thematic parallel between the development of the faith of Esther and the development of the faith of the Jewish people over time, from the sin of the spies through the conquering of walled cities in Canaan under Joshua's leadership. The article argues that the halakha about walled cities in the time of Joshua is meant to point to this particular message about the dynamism of faith as illustrated by those two stories. Watch a video recording of the conversation.

Brent Billings and Elle Grover Fricks search out what life can be found in two short verses from the Sermon on the Mount.Halakha — WikipediaBEMA 95: Abolish or FulfillBook of Tobit — Wikipedia

Why do Jews eat kosher food? Why do Jews keep shabbat? Why do Jewish women dress modestly? Yes, the Torah says to keep the above mitzvot (commandments), but WHY? The answers to those questions on Jewish Law (Halakha), and many more can be found in the Talmud.What is the Talmud? What is Halakha? And why is it relevant for women (and girls) to learn these holy teachings? Most importantly, how does learning Talmud help us on a practical, daily basis? Rabbanit Chamutal Shoval, Director of the Susi Bradfield Women's Institute of Halakhic Leadership, sheds light of the importance of Talmud and Halakha study for women.The Talmud is:--a record of rabbinic debates about the Torah that took place between the 2nd and 5th centuries --includes a codification of laws called the Mishnah, and a commentary on the Mishnah called the Gemara --contains rules for social and family life, such as marriage, taxes, and criminal law --helps to explain how the Torah applies to modern situations --an essential source of halakha, or Jewish religious law Simply put, the Talmud contains rabbinic commentaries, and explanation of traditions and laws that were given to us through the Torah's infinite wisdom.Halakha, also known as Jewish law, is a set of rules and practices that guide Jewish life. It covers religious observances, daily life, and personal/professional conduct.In this eye opening conversation, Rabbanit Chamutal explains to us how women can elevate themselves and grow spiritually and personally though learning the Talmud. We see, through the rabbi's discussions, how they struggled with the same types of issues and challenges with which we struggle. And the struggle is real! Learning the Talmud helps us understand how to respectfully listen to other people's points of view and opinions that might be different through ours. It teaches us how to interact with and communicate with people who are different from ourselves. The Talmud also gives us insights and perspectives into why Jews do what we do--shabbat, kashrut, laws of how to conduct business, interactions between men and women, and explains, in depth, a multitude of other Jewish commandments. It really helps us understand WHY we do what we do on a daily basis. As women (and girls) learn the Talmud, it begins to affect our self-conduct on a daily basis, as we connect with and understand more deeply, the teachings of the Torah.Torah is not a subject like biology, math, history, or language arts. The point in learning Torah, including Talmud and Halakha, is for the teachings to enter your heart, change you as a person, on a spiritual level, and help you to become more elevated. Rabbanit Chamutal is available to answer women's questions on Torah and Jewish law.
