Description

In this conversation with Dr. Elana Stein Hain, we discuss rabbinic perspectives on legal loopholing, the subject of her recently published book, Circumventing the Law: Rabbinic Perspectives on Loopholes and Legal Integrity (Penn Press, 2024). Elana’s perspectives highlight the way Halakha should be seen as both a love language with God as well as deeply anchored to the practicalities of this world.
