The Moral Obligation to Speak Out in the Face of Wrongdoing

Published Date: 02/27/2019

ABOUT THIS LECTURE: A wonderful sugya in Bavli Shabbat (54b-55a) takes up the question of what to do when one sees people misbehaving, whether they are government officials or neighbors, whether they are breaking religious or civil law. Via anecdotes and midrashim, a very demanding moral principle emerges.
