Knowledge On The Deeper Side

You Be the Judge An Exhilarating Exploration of Jewish Civil Law With Rabbi Ari Sollish (Recorded live at the Intown Jewish Academy on August 31, 2021) Lesson 3 Burdens of Proof If two people lay claim to an object, how can we decide who is right? Upon whom does the burden of proof fall, and what kind of evidence will the court require? You Be the Judge presents real cases brought before the beit din, the court system of Jewish Law. We provide the cases and the primary source texts from the Talmud, and you grapple with the facts in order to arrive at satisfying solutions. You will have the opportunity to question, discuss, and argue, based on principle and precedent. You need no prior knowledge of the Talmud and no formal legal training. There are no prerequisites other than an open mind. You take the lead. You Be the Judge!
