Prior to joining Tikvah, Rabbi Gottlieb served as Head of School at Yeshiva University High School for Boys and Principal of the Maimonides School in Brookline, MA.His writing has appeared inFirst Things,Public Discourse,the University Bookman,the Algemeiner,andthe Jewish Review of Books. Rabbi Gottlieb is a member of the Orthodox Forum Steering Committee and serves on the Editorial Committee ofTradition: A Journal of Orthodox Jewish Thought.Rabbi Gottlieb poses a courageous question as to the efficacy and relevance of the Yovel laws which on the surface seem counter intuitive,and leads to a disincentive for private property.Making use of ideas expressed by Rav Aharon Lichtenstein Zt'l in regards to the status of Shmitah,in a world where the Heter Mechirah is so prevalent,Gottlieb offers an explanation of the Jubilee that serves as a reexamination of our over industrialized society.He anchors his Drush with perspectives culled from the American poet, essayist, social commentator Allen Tate and the Pulitzer-prize winning American historian Herbert Agarthat manage to intertwine an idealization of the distinctly American concept of Freedom with a hopefulvision of our Messianic future.The Yeshiva of Newark @IDT is proud to partner with Rabbi Gottlieb in sharing his insightsand thoughtsto as wide an audience as possible .We thank the Tikvah Fund for use of this material.
