machloket

literally means “strife,” and indicates a culture of constructive arguing and debating, forming a central part of Jewish thought and ethics. It encourages us to explore different perspectives and ways of understanding the world, helping us move closer to the truth. In Judaism, this kind of thoughtful consideration is seen positively, as a sign of respect and dedication to a topic. Its goal is not to win the dispute, but rather to have different viewpoints coexist with one another [18].
