WHEN DOES LIFE BEGIN? The Jewish View – with Rabbi Michael Skobac
The abortion debate remains one of the most controversial moral and legal issues of our time. Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, many people have asked an important question: What does Judaism actually teach about when life begins and when abortion may be permitted?
In this insightful lecture, Rabbi Michael Skobac explores the Torah’s perspective on pregnancy, fetal development, the sanctity of life, and the circumstances under which Jewish law may allow or even require terminating a pregnancy.
In this video, you’ll learn:
• When life is considered to begin according to Jewish law
• How Torah and Rabbinic sources view the status of an embryo and fetus
• Under what circumstances abortion may be permitted or required
• How Judaism differs from many contemporary religious positions on abortion
• Why preserving life remains a central value in Torah ethics
