“Ethical Imperatives,” is a monthly blog in the Jewish Journal by rabbis and scholars of the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem. The Hartman Institute engages thinkers from across the religious and ideological spectrum in ongoing examinations of the significance of Jewish ideas to contemporary life.

In that spirit, this blog will look at the intersection of Jewish ethics and values with the urgent issues we face today — political, cultural, spiritual and personal.

To engage with the writers, please join the “Ethical Imperatives” conversation, suggest topics for future columns and learn more about the Hartman Institute.
