GEN967 Jewish ethics is, of course, not only about avoiding wrongdoing. Rather, we have a greater mandate to go beyond the ethics of the “do no harm” principle and the responsibility to repair the world from its brokenness. We are asked to partner with others to help meet our potential for moral leadership. As a nation, we are commanded to commit to being laasot tzedakah u’mispat—a nation enacting justice. Setting positive examples that cultivate leadership in our communities is vital to the Jewish moral enterprise and to the creation of a vibrant, just society.
