The Ends, The Means, and Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi (18)

September 6, 2018 5:44 pm

Do the ends justify the means? This old question has been debated endlessly, but within Torah Judaism, the answer must be a resounding NO. Nevertheless, too often in the Torah community, the ends are treated as so important that violations of some of the most serious prohibitions in the Torah are countenanced in the context of achieving a seemingly noble goal.

In this episode of the Orthodox Conundrum, Scott Kahn discusses this issue in the context of the well-known kiruv rabbi, Yosef Mizrachi, and his seemingly questionable methodology. He also carefully distinguishes between elements of Mizrachi’s approach with which he disagrees, and those which he claims are a violation of Torah norms. Listen now to this careful yet passionate discussion.

The Chareidi political leadership continues to encourage its voters to die a painful, lonely death. What a perversion of Torah values. What horrible leadership. I'm literally sick reading this. https://www.timesofisrael.com/under-haredi-pressure-pm-said-to-agree-to-soften-bill-hiking-lockdown-fines/ via @timesofisrael

And once again, a segment of the Orthodox community demonstrates how it supposedly follows halacha without understanding the first thing about halachic values.

THIS. IS. AWESOME.
No matter where you stand politically, this is the wonderful America I remember from my youth and this is the culture that I am going to do everything in my power to bring to Israel - including the necessary electoral reform to allow for it.
