Jewish ethics in the contemporary era emerges from the traditional practice of applying principles of Halacha (Jewish law) to ethical dilemmas. The Torah (written law) and the Talmud (oral law) are the foundational texts on which such deliberations are based. Interpretation of passages in these texts attempts to identify the duties of physicians, patients and families faced with difficult health care decisions. This seminar will examine the Jewish response to bioethics.
