An Overview of Jewish Denominations in 10 Minutes
Manage episode 515373155 series 3688497
Why are there so many kinds of Jews, and how do they all fit together? In Overview of Jewish Denominations in 10 Minutes, we'll take a whirlwind tour through the major branches of modern Judaism—Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, Reconstructionist, and beyond. We'll break down what each emphasizes, from strict halakhic observance to a more flexible, evolving approach, and how history, culture, and modernity shaped their development. And don't worry—we'll keep it light, because Jewish denominational debates can feel like the original family group chat: full of disagreements, but still bound by connection. Future episodes will be devoted to individual denominations.
