What can you do with a portion that tends to be a little dry unless you’re into legal tomes? You bring those laws to life and into conversation. This week we’re looking into the one place in the Torah where one might find a rationale for abortion access (in Parashat Mishpatim, Exodus 21:22). Through an incredible conversation with Development Director at Falls Church Healthcare Center of Mike Scheinberg, we talk about abortion rights, abortion access, and reproductive justice—and how each of these can be strongly influenced through a Jewish lens. We also welcome Michaela Brown, third-year rabbinical student at Hebrew College as our Q&A guest.
