AKIVA GERSH  EDUCATOR - SPEAKER - WRITER - MUSICIAN

CONTENT OF THE COURSE

​

We will study a wide range of ancient and modern Jewish sources, from the Torah and the Talmud to halacha (Jewish law), Jewish philosophy and Jewish mysticism (Kabbalah), that emphasize the value and the requirement of compassion towards animals in the Jewish tradition.

​​

In addition, we will learn numerous Jewish laws and values related to environmental stewardship and human health that, together, strongly support going vegan in our world today.

​

You will leave this course with a strong understanding of Judaism's support for animal welfare and the importance of making responsibile food choices and be able to articulate why eating animals no longer makes sense according to traditional Jewish laws, values and teachings.
