Is it Wrong to be Ethical? Ethics, Halakhah, and Philosophy of Law with Dr. Daniel Rynhold

This season of Turn it & Turn it is on the topic of: "Ethics" 

It’s clear on the one hand that Judaism requires ethical behavior of us. But does it require such behavior because it is ethical? Or is it required for legal reasons that have little to do with ethics? Might it even be religiously wrong for us to behave ethically on the basis of ethical reasoning? In this session we will explore the nexus between Judaism and ethics and some of the very different attitudes towards the relationship between them.
