This class on Pirkei Avot (literally, Chapters of Our Fathers) will study the only tractate of the Mishna - the first text of the Jewish oral law - devoted exclusively to the ethical and moral statements of the Sages. For this reason, it is often referred to in English as Ethics of Our Fathers. Pirkei Avot is the most widely known rabbinic text, andpresents a series of ethical principles articulated by the rabbis whose legal opinions appear elsewhere in the Mishna.
