Ep 101. Abortion is Worse than Molech Idolatry: A Study of Pro Life Tanakh and Talmudic Sources with Rabbi Alan Betsalel Friedlander

An excellent study on Jewish scripture and commentary showing conclusively that Judaism is a pro-life religion with clear prohibitions against child sacrifice and serious consequences for engaging in abortion and promoting it. Rabbi Alan Betsalel Friedlander is a lecturer for Congregation Yeshiva Yaakov Ovenu, and a blogger of some renown. A son of Harav Leon (Eliezer) Friedlander, the great kiruv (outreach) Rav of Chicago, and a student of great poskim, Harav Aharon Soloveichik (at Yeshivas Brisk in Chicago), and Harav Chaim Yisroel Belsky (at Mesivta Torah Vodaath in Brooklyn, NY.) Rabbi Friedlander was an Adjunct Professor of Political Science at Touro College in New York before returning to Yeshiva to complete his semicha (rabbinical ordination) studies which he began under Rav Aharon Soloveichik. He was granted semicha from HaRav Chaim Yisroel Belsky. Rabbi Friedlander answers many questions about Torah and Judaism on Quora and on his blog.
