Episode 5 – Rabbi Yaakov Shapiro, Author of the “Sexuality and Jewish Law” Series

In this episode of The Scott Kahnversation, Scott interviews Rabbi Yaakov Shapiro, author of Halachic Positions: What Judaism Really Says About Passion In The Marital Bed. Rabbi Shapiro offers a candid, refreshing, and often surprising look at Halacha’s approach to sexuality. His approach may appear daring, but is in fact fully grounded in the classic sources of Halacha. Rabbi Shapiro is also the co-founder of a Chabad Montessori yeshiva in Crown Heights, New York. Their discussion – an introduction to a series dealing with sexuality and Jewish law (which will be continued in the next episode of the Orthodox Conundrum podcast) – is not to be missed.
