Most people never intentionally commit fraud, but almost everyone has rationalized something questionable.
We sign, share, copy, borrow, and agree far more than we realize, often assuming it’s fine because it’s common or convenient.
In this four-part course, we examine real-life disputes and ethical gray zones through core Torah sources, exploring how actual cases were navigated and what honesty demands in practice.
You’ll learn what counts as theft, how to navigate ownership and permission in everyday situations, and how ordinary choices test integrity more than the dramatic dilemmas ever will.

Bank robbery is obviously wrong.
But borrowed Wi-Fi and shared passwords? That’s where integrity gets tested.
This class builds the Torah’s framework for honest measures and truthful dealings, examining how minor choices can create a slippery slope from taking to denying to outright lying.
You’ll explore whether misleading someone counts as dishonesty even when no lie is spoken, and what those quiet, unseen choices reveal about your integrity. |

Does Access Mean Permission? |
The internet made copying effortless, not innocent.
This class examines what it means to use photos, music, books, and content that someone else created, especially when it’s publicly accessible.
We explore boundaries, intent of the creator, user agreements, and how halacha understands ownership beyond physical objects. A major case study, Slavita versus Vilna, shows how serious this question became in the world of Torah publishing.
You’ll grapple with whether access equals permission, and what you actually owe when you benefit from someone else’s work. |

When do civil law and Torah law intersect?
This class explores everyday examples like traffic laws, parking, and littering, and then shifts to real disputes where the stakes are higher.
Using a landmark approach from Rav Moshe Feinstein on landlord-tenant norms, we examine how contracts, local custom, and government policy shape Torah obligations, and where Torah law ultimately draws the final boundary. |

Most conflict is not about bad people.
It’s about vague agreements and selective memory.
This class steps into the Beit Din, the court of Jewish law, to examine what happens when expectations stay in someone’s head instead of on paper. From ketubahs and gets, to leases, loans, and contractor jobs, we explore how the Torah approaches commitments between two parties.
When is a handshake enough?
Does “we had an understanding” hold up?
And what makes an agreement binding when the stakes are real? |
