It is argued here that when there is a clash between these two categories, and one cannot carry out both, the interpersonal mitzvot almost always override those of a ritual nature. Different scenarios from a broad spectrum of Jewish law are cited to prove this contention, and the conclusion is underscored through the examination of the behavior and rulings of several leading Jewish legal authorities. Finally, the implications of this conclusion and their impact on religious educational direction and rationale are also discussed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Sperber\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9655241459\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789655241457\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Urim Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 211\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.60w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e National Jewish Book Award - Finalist","brand":"Daniel Sperber","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48874358046975,"sku":"9789655241457","price":28.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/on-the-relationship-of-mitzvot-daniel-sperber-9789655241457","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
