This rich history has yielded a distinctive and venerable intellectual heritage […] Broadly speaking, the classical Sephardic approach is faithful to tradition and Torah but not petrified by modernity. It remains loyal to halakhah but imbues it with a spirit of tolerance, inclusivity, and compassion. Halakhah evolves, but it does so organically and gently through a set legal framework rather than being swept away by social trends. So, while halakhic creativity and innovation are indispensable, radical reform is unprecedented and deemed completely unviable.
