This book is a collection of the Responsa which Rabbi David Golinkin published in Moment magazine from 1990-1996. The goal of those columns was to show the way in which Jewish Law grapples with modern ethical and legal dilemmas such as Returning Territories for the Sake of Peace, Institutionalizing Parents with Alzheimer's Disease, Genetic Engineering, Is It a Mitzvah to Make Aliyah? and more. The book is organized according to the order of the Shulhan Arukh, the bibliography has been updated and a chapter was added on The Whys and Hows of Conservative Judaism.

By the autumn of 1942, there was no more room for doubt: the Germans were carrying out the mass murder of millions of European Jews. In the death camps of Auschwitz and Treblinka, in the ghetto of Warsaw and the ravine of Babi Yar, the slaughter continued, day after day, while the Free World looked away. American Jewish leaders were confused, divided, and afraid that speaking out in protest would be seen as undermining the Allied war effort. American Christian leaders paid scant attention to the most horrific tragedy of modern times. Into this moral vacuum stepped three young rabbinical students. Noah Golinkin, Jerry Lipnick, and Buddy Sachs had no office, no funds, no organizational experience--just an unshakeable determination to shatter the silence, before it was too late. This is their story.

Historical

Responsa in a Moment, Vol. II, is a collection of 33 responsa culled from a monthly email column, Responsa in a Moment, written by Prof. David Golinkin from 2006 to the present. In this volume, he discusses halakhic topics related to liturgy, the holidays, tzedakah, conversion, medical ethics, and the State of Israel. From 1990-1996 Golinkin authored a column entitled Responsa in a Moment which appeared in Moment magazine (1990-96) and forms the basis for the book Responsa in a Moment, Vol. 1.

Responsa in a Moment 2

This book is dedicated to the study of the halakhic status of women in the synagogue and in public life. Rabbi Golinkin deals with the tension which exists between Jewish Law and modernity, striving to bridge the gap between tradition and change. He looks for leniencies within the framework of Jewish Law in order to show that changes can be made in the status of women in Jewish Law. Rabbi Golinkin deals with questions such as women and tefillin, women in the Minyan and as Shelihot Tzibbur, aliyot for women, women and the mourners' Kaddish, women as Halakhic Authorities, the ordination of women as rabbis, and more.
