YU Library Book Talk  | The Judaism of the Poskim: Responsa and the Nature Of Orthodox Judaism

YU Library Book Talk | The Judaism of the Poskim: Responsa and the Nature Of Orthodox Judaism Online

Meshivim, authors of halachic responsa, have lived everywhere and everywhen, producing a literature that seems overwhelming to study. Rabbi Gidon Rothstein presents responsa from 1600 to the present, finding unifying themes that repeatedly engaged these scholars and the common sources on which they based their ideas.

Join Rabbi Rothstein as he explores how meshivim come to their halachic conclusions and what animated our greatest halachic authors.

A graduate of YU, Rabbi Rothstein was ordained at RIETS. After a career wandering through the rabbinate and education at various levels, he now teaches and writes online.  This is his seventh book.
