Morality and Jewish Law
Question
Hello Rabbi,
If I assume that morality is divine, and also that Jewish law is binding by virtue of revelation, how can one decide between them when they seem to contradict each other?
Answer
There are also conflicts between two moral values. How do you decide between them? Exactly the same way.
