Description

This course surveys the Rabbinic Literature as an expression of the religious life and thought of Judaism from the close of the Hebrew Bible through contemporary Poskim (Legal Decisors), and the formation of Halakhic Judaism as practiced today. We will survey the development of Rabbinic Literature and then examine how it applies to contemporary medical ethics and issues as it may impact on healthcare chaplaincy and spiritual care.
