Issue 5.6: Halakhah and Psychology
In this issue of Kol Hamevaser, we explore the connections and interactions between Halakhah and Psychology. It is apparent from overarching halakhic principles and specific halakhic practices that Halakhah accounts for the way that we think, feel, and react. This relationship between Halakhah and Psychology is a fascinating and fruitful subject, and we hope that this issue of Kol Hamevaser will serve as a starting point for further discussion.
