108. Lech Lecha - Sacrificing The Few To Save The Many According To Rabbi J. David Bleich

from Rabbi Yakov Bronsteyn - Parsha Classes · host Yakov Bronsteyn

throwback episode - We discuss various scenarios that challenge our moral instincts from a Halachic perspective. Can one shoot down a plane full of people that is headed for the World Trade Center? Can one redirect a trolly to save a group of people but killing one? Is one allowed to give away a pursued person that is slated for death to marauders? Or is one obligated to face death instead? We relate the opinion of Rabbi J. David Bleich on these issue. Also listen to episode #35 where we discuss similar dilemmas in regard to algorithms for self-automated cars.
