Category :: Lecture
Export to My Calendar
Delve into the fascinating world of medieval Jews who lived as a minority among Christians and (mostly among) Muslims. Learn how they inherited Talmudic law and lore about non-Jews, but had to adjust as the realities of life in a world unforeseen by the Talmudic rabbis created various tensions between law and life. Explore a few of these tensions and the ways in which major Jewish legal decisors grappled with them.
