Rabbi Yosef Y. Shusterman, Rabbi of Chabad of North Beverly Hills as well as the Rav of the Chabad community in Los Angeles, is a noted Halachic scholar and a pre-eminent posek in Lubavitch. A noted speaker, Rabbi Shusterman delves into the complex and often misunderstood world of Jewish marriage and divorce law, through contemporary applications of the Bible, the Talmud, case law, and chassidic philosophy. The lecture covers the basic requirements of a kosher Jewish marriage; issues surrounding divorce and remarriage, and the controversial Agunah, or ‘chained wives’ problem, and differences in the Ashkenazic and Sephardic rites. Rabbi Shusterman deftly leads the discussion and takes questions from the audience.
