Meet Dr. Shaiya Rothberg. Living in Jerusalem, he is a conservative rabbi and teacher of theology, Kabbalah, and written and oral torah from the Midrash to the Middle Ages. In this conversation, we discuss democracy and human rights from a Jewish perspective. Here, he explains the difference between Judaism and Torah, which he defines as Truth. Unlike many observant Jews, however, he understands multiple pathways to access the capital T Truth, and he explores what it would mean for Israelis to take responsibility for the conflict in the region while holding both sides accountable.
