JLI: Sinai and Civics
SINAI AND CIVICS
How Jewish values helped shape America’s founding ideals
In time for the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this four-session course reflects on the Jewish ethics, ideas, and values that inspired and influenced America’s founders—and that still shape our government and society today.
Was it always self-evident that all people are “created equal”? What is the “pursuit of happiness”? What inspired America’s system of checks and balances? And looking ahead, what steps can we take to build a just and united future?
(No previous Jewish learning necessary.)
This course will satisfy the continuing education (CLE) requirements of attorneys and other legal professionals.
