A Guide to Jewish Practice: Kashrut

This is an essential publication for contemporary Jews seeking guidance on how Jewish traditions can shape the everyday decisions they make. It includes a list of Jewish values that can guide decision making and a section that applies the values to kashrut – the Jewish dietary practices. While most contemporary Jews do not accept the authority of halakha (Jewish law), many of them do want to learn about traditions and customs and to explore how old and new Jewish resources, practices and insights can shape their lives. This is their guide.
