The rabbi's job is mainly to teach, mainly Jewish ethics, law, and attitudes. He is also expected to keep himself well-enough educated that he is qualified to render expert decisions based on Jewish law, for those who approach him with questions regarding the proper response to situations that they encounter in their daily business or family life.
