At moments,
I have to admit that my faith was rocked and I was angry
at G-d for having let me experience such pain. But then I
realized that I get angry at only someone I care about.
When I didn't get the support I needed from my first few
Jewish contacts, I tried some others; I knew that I still
had faith that someone would take my outreached hand and
lead me to the sources of Jewish healing that would
re-nourish my soul. Please help me add to this
list.]

Matter of Abortion
Feldman,
David M. (1986). Health and Medicine in the Jewish
Tradition. L'Hayyim - to Life . "This Matter of
Abortion," ch. 9, New York: Crossroad.
Rabbi Feldman,
a highly respected figure among Conservative and
Reform Jews, reviews the Biblical texts and Talmudic
interpretations and teachings regarding abortion, which,
when the health, life, and well-being of the mother are
threatened by the completion of her pregnancy with the
birth of the fetus, is permissible, even
mandated.
Jewish

- Parashat
Mishpatim
- Exodus 21:1

Ismar Schorsch,

begins, and how that shapes the Jewish position on
abortion.
