Abstract: | In this essay, we will analyze Rabbi Moshe Feinstein’s responsa and halachic rulings in the field of medicine in order to gain insight on his role as a medical halachic decisor and the significance of these two worlds (science and Jewish law) merging. Rav Moshe had a particular contribution to the world of medical halacha. He was consulted on virtually every medical halachic issue during his life. I will give an overview of his approach to medical halacha, concentrating on specific areas in medicine where his halachic rulings had a major influence. Rabbi Feinstein’s rulings on medical halacha have had broad and enduring impact on the world of medicine today. (from Introduction) |
