Dr. Sara Labaton is Director of Teaching and Learning at the Shalom Hartman Institute of North America. She was a member of the inaugural cohort of North American David Hartman Center Fellows. Sara received a B.A. in Religious Studies from Columbia University and a doctorate in Medieval Jewish Thought from the Skirball Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies at NYU. Her doctoral thesis focused on the relationship between the esoteric and peshat hermeneutics in the commentaries of Abraham ibn Ezra, particularly with regard to ibn Ezra’s understanding of biblical cultic rituals. Sara was a founding faculty member of Yeshivat Hadar, where she developed a Bible and Exegesis curriculum. She has taught in a variety of Jewish settings, most recently as a history instructor at the Frisch School. Her research interests include the intersection of ritual and relevance, ritual experimentation, and overcoming the binary of halakhic-non-halakhic/insider-outsider in Jewish ritual practice. As part of her participation in the Religious Worlds Seminar at the Interfaith Center of New York, Sara researched ways of integrating comparative religion into Jewish educational contexts.

    Marc has been wrong about this for years. In fact, many gadolim mention the three oaths. Rabbi J. David Bleich, a Rosh Yeshiva and prominent scholar at Yeshiva University, writes, “Elsewhere in Contemporary Halakhic Problems, Vol. I, I have presented a fairly comprehensive list of the various views concerning the nature of the oath, ‘shelo ya’alu be-chomah.’ The view that ‘the oath was simply aggadic and never binding’ is but one view among many and is distinctly a minority view.” Rabbi J. David Bleich, “Withdrawal from Liberated Territories as a Viable Halakhic Option,” Journal of Halacha and Contemporary Society, Vol. XVIII, Succot 5750, Fall 1989, p. 107. Rabbi Hershel Schachter, writes “In expounding the verse ‘I have made you swear, O daughter of Jerusalem,’ the Gemara relates that the Almighty administered three oaths on the Jewish people. The time and nature of these oaths are not clear, but one of them entailed a commitment on the part of the Jews not to return and conquer Israel by force. Many Gedolim in Europe took this to forbid any attempt at reestablishing the State of Israel before Messianic times.” (Rabbi Hershel Schachter, “The Mitzvah of Yishuv Eretz Yisrael,” Journal of Halacha and Contemporary Society, Number VIII, p. 27.) Chazon Ish: Rav Dovid Shmidel reports, a visitor asked the Chazon Ish “How could it be that all the nations of the world stood by silently while the Germans killed millions of Jews?” The Chazon Ish responded, “Is it not an explicit Gemara in Kesubos that if the Jewish people violates the Three Oaths, Hashem will permit their flesh like the gazelles and the deer of the field?” TorahJewsdotOrg The Rogachover Gaon (1858-1936), in a letter of reply to Rabbi Yitzchok Sternhell of Tzanz, editor of the monthly Torah journal “Hakochav,” wrote: Regarding what you asked about settling the Holy Land, this is only for individuals, and we must not do it as a group, as it states at the end of tractate Kesubos, that we must not go up as a wall. See Yuma 9b [where it is clear that group immigration, even when peaceful, is considered ‘as a wall’]. The Rambam also holds that only settling Eretz Yisroel is a mitzvah, not buying land there. For in this matter there is a contradiction between Gittin 8b [where it states that there is a mitzvah to buy fields in Eretz Yisroel] and Bava Kama 80b [where only houses are mentioned], and the Rambam (Hilchos Shabbos 6:11) rules in accordance with Bava Kama.

    regarding Negiyos in Halacha. The sefer Tanya brings an example of Shammai being a gevurah natured soul and Hillel a chesed leaning soul. This obv is reflected in their approach , theres always expections to the rule. In chabad they would say maybe Yesh vs Bittul . Even Avrahahm avinu who was a merkava to hashhem was still a yesh who loved Gd. Once created as a human of flesh and blood we cant be fully batel to hashem and absorbed in his existence

    marc slipping in his usual modern orthodox, anti-yeshivish propaganda about a rabbi who told someone to stay in europe and not make aliyah and the guy was killed in the Holocaust, as if everyone who wanted to leave europe could. I like Marc but I have to say he's stupid with his MO rhetoric.

    The Christian bible is a Christian false idol. The only truthful gospel is mark. The rest were put together by Paul a Roman Citizen who was helping stabilize and expand the Roman Empire. You can see the Roman fables like God mating with a Virgin. So phonie and a false idol for many conditioned folks.

    It always puzzles me that philosophers take it as an axiom that Reality has to comply 100% with the laws of logic. Even when, like here, they talk about the one infinite God creator of the universe etc. Goodman says 'if God is infinite then there cannot be 2 Gods because that is just illogical'. Well, who says that 'illogical' is not allowed in creation??

    After i converted in August 6th, 2020, the moment i stepped out of the mikveh and was walking up the steps, i felt a tangible spiritual pleasure in my forehead. Now, at the time I did believe Jews have different souls but had no idea what to expect or not. Confused, I asked same day another man who converted a few minutes before if he felt any different. He said he felt more "aware". This spiritual pleasure in my forehead lasted for several hours and despite not being a morning person, always struggling to wake up on time for Shacharit at around 6AM, i woke up for bet keneset easily. Easier than i ever have in the 1+ year since attending shul in preparation to convert. Rabbanim who accept Kabbalah told me i must have been feeling the affects of my nefesh elokit thats unique to Jews. However, if Jews, including converts, have no difference in soul than goyim, what other satisfactory alternative answer is there? Im not aware of any psychological explanations that sufficiently explain why i felt so different, a feeling i never felt bwfore nor afterwards.

    So particular, her worshipful approach to a man who famously rejected pity as a human emotion, is a great lesson for Jews to approach secularism and secularists with great caution.

    Short on insight, long on girl crush spacey platitudes. But even worse, Her analysis and presentation is tainted by her apparent agenda and self involvement in the subject. It seems that she enjoys Spinoza because it helps her let go of her orthodox upbringing. In contrast, Melamed ( the next lecture) is terrific, deep, insightful, and best of all, objective, without some preconceived romance for the subject.
