The Periphery of Jewish Law
Question
Hello,
Is the principle of the periphery that was mentioned in lesson 4 not identical to the principle of “It is a time to act for the Lord,” which is by definition a principle outside Jewish law?
Answer
Very similar indeed. And yes, the formulation of this principle includes “they have violated Your Torah,” meaning there is an explicit expression here that this is something outside the Torah (a violation of the Torah).
