Who Will Live and Who Will Die?
Hosted By: London School of Jewish Studies (LSJS)
The London School of Jewish Studies presents a discussion on Jewish perspectives regarding the proposed UK End of Life Bill, led by Dr. Lindsay Simmonds and Rabbi Dr. Raphael Zarum. The session will examine whether the bill affirms or undermines human dignity, balances compassion with potential pressure on the terminally ill, and addresses the tension between life as a right and life as sacred. Drawing on halacha, rabbinic opinion, and British legal perspectives, the conversation will explore Jewish law’s opposition to assisted dying alongside its recognition of pain alleviation and patient choice.
