In Judaism, human life is of paramount value. Our mitzvos reflect our innate holiness, and we must treat our fellow man accordingly. Yet the Tanach is brimming with stories of war and violence. Rabbi Wein takes on the complex questions of life and death: of capital punishment, euthanasia, abortion, and even the current conflict in Israel. He examines them through the lens of Torah, clarifying the correct attitude Jews must have toward life itself.
