GUARD YOUR TONGUE: Speech Ethics in Judaism - Lashon Hara - Rabbi Michael Skobac - Jews for Judaism
One of the most common misconceptions about Judaism is that its concerns are limited to life-cycle events, holidays, prayers and food laws. In truth, Judaism's teachings include the entire gamut of human life.
Jewish teaching identifies our ability to communicate through speech as the defining element of what it means to be human. Speech can be used for the most elevated and noble human activities. But it is precisely those things with the greatest potential that are most susceptible to being abused and degraded.
The Torah places a tremendous emphasis on speech ethics and specifically what kinds of speech are forbidden. In this video, Rabbi Skobac presents an overview of this topic and explains the parameters of what may be said and what we may listen to.

JEWS FOR JUDAISM is an outreach organization whose primary goal is to win back to Judaism those Jews who have been influenced by the following six threats to Jewish survival that are devastating the global Jewish community.
1. Hebrew-Christian missionaries convert thousands of Jews worldwide every year
2. Destructive cults cause many Jews to abandon family, friends and careers
3. Eastern religions, Buddhism and Hinduism are spiritual choices for many Jews
4. Apathy and ignorance leave many Jews unaware, unaffiliated and assimilated
5. Intermarriage is exploding with a 75% rate in some North American cities
6. Anti-Israel BDS on campus inhibits Jewish students from standing up for Israel and Judaism
To assist non-Jews who have left other religions, JEWS FOR JUDAISM also provides educational programs to help them embrace the Torah’s Seven Noachide Laws for Gentiles.
We achieve our goals through our worldwide Internet outreach, Social Media, free educational programs, educational literature and counseling services that connect Jewish people to the spiritual depth, beauty and wisdom of Judaism.
“I am so grateful to have discovered the wonderful Jews for Judaism RU-vid lectures by Rabbi Skobac. I am a Jew who converted to Christianity in college, but now, thanks to your online outreach, I have returned to Judaism. Thank you.” - Rebecca G.
In a nutshell, Jews for Judaism saves Jewish lives and keeps Jews Jewish.
