Captivating Cases in Rabbinic Responsa
Winter 2026
From as early as the eighth century to today, individuals and rabbis have submitted legal inquiries to the leading decisors of Jewish law. These questions touch every area of life—from business dealings to personal matters—and encompass nearly all branches of law: financial, civil, criminal, family, medical, and more. The written responses form a rich body of Jewish legal precedent, showcasing how timeless principles are applied to real situations through careful analysis, interpretation, and the balancing of values in pursuit of justice and ethics. Captivating Cases in Rabbinic Responsa, a six-week CLE course, explores a selection of these fascinating cases—spanning continents and centuries—and compares their reasoning with approaches found in U.S. law.
