Joint Decisions: Rabbinic Perspectives on Weed

Hosted By: The Florence Melton School of Adult Jewish Learning

As the world continues to explore the moral and legal issues surrounding the use of marijuana, we have an opportunity to also consider some Jewish perspective on its use. There are, after all, clear medical benefits in specific situations. But what about consuming marijuana for recreational purposes? Is that to be condoned? Is it kosher? It’s a sticky subject, for sure. This spring, join expert Melton teacher Rabbi Michele Faudem to find out how dope Judaism really is.
