  • TZNIUT – a RESPONSE to RABBI KLAPPER's ESSAY by Miriam Gedwiser It Is by Now a Sad Truism That the Battle for the Public
    TZNIUT – A RESPONSE TO RABBI KLAPPER’S ESSAY by Miriam Gedwiser It is by now a sad truism that the battle for the public sphere in Israel has a way of being waged over women's bodies. Equally predictable is the rush of Sensible People to rescue both their own credibility and that of the Torah by disclaiming the “extremists.” But I cannot help but wonder whether these problems are really "theirs" alone. Are the restrictions that I observe – on what I may wear, on where I may sit – different in kind, or just in degree, from the repression everyone seems to love to hate? Several rabbis, including teachers and friends of mine, have thrown in their two cents about what tzniut "really" is and how the desire for invisible women shared by spitting zealots and their better-mannered sympathizers is not Torah-true. My teacher, Rabbi Aryeh Klapper, for example, attempts to show that tzniut is a “dynamic” value meant to limit unnecessary self-exposure and to preserve intimacy and the integrity of personal space, but is not to be used by one person to prevent another “from living a normal fulfilling human life.” I appreciate his and others' efforts, but have been uniformly left with the feeling that they are asking the wrong question (“why is spitting on girls not in comportment with true tznius?”), and thus arriving at an unsatisfying answer. In this response to Rabbi Klapper's essay, I hope to show how I think this conversation should be redirected. * * * As a teenager my typical shabbat morning involved davening at the hashkamah minyan and then learning in the beit midrash until the main minyan finished.

  • Should Visiting the Cemetery Be Encouraged Or Discouraged?
    207 Should Visiting the Cemetery be Encouraged or Discouraged? By: MOSHE ZURIEL The Problem During the past few hundred years, a new custom has developed for people to visit the cemetery and pray there for Divine help. Some visit on a regular basis to honor the deceased, usually on the seventh and/or thirtieth day (shloshim) following the death of a dear one, or on the annual anniversary (yahrtzeit) of the petirah. In this Torah article we shall attempt to clarify what would be the best way to comply with Chazal’s directives and teachings on this matter. So, too, we shall explore whether the deceased can “hear” visitors talk- ing to them. This essay is divided into three parts. The first addresses the ad- visability of praying or reciting Tehillim and/or Mishnayos at the graveside; the second explores whether the deceased hear our words; and the last discusses whether or not it is proper to visit the ceme- tery on specific days to honor the memory of the deceased. Undoubtedly, there are many reputable rabbis who condone and encourage each of these practices and beliefs, while other repu- table rabbis condemn and forbid them. In general, the former rely ________________________________________________________ Rabbi Moshe Zuriel attended Yeshiva Torah Vodaath in Brooklyn and Ner Israel Rabbinical College in Baltimore. In 1958 he made aliyah to Israel and was a student of Rabbi Seraya Deblitzky and a chavrusa of Rabbi Chaim Friedlander (Ponevez). He served eighteen years as Mashgiach in Yeshivat ha-Hesder Sha’alvim and currently teaches in Yeshivat Rishon L’Tzion and Torat HaChaim.

    A Survey of the Modern Orthodox Jewish Community in the United States September 2017 Q43. What gives the most satisfaction, joy or meaning to your life as an Orthodox / Observant Jew? (Pages 1-36) and Q44. What, if anything, causes you the most pain or unhappiness as an Orthodox / Observant Jew? (Pages 37-86) Below are large samples of substantive responses to these open-ended question. The briefest comments are generally not included, as the gist of brief sentiments is well-reflected in the data tabulations.

To that end, all potentially identifying information (such as names of cities, shuls, rabbis, or other information that might identify a respondent) has been edited for purposes of anonymity [edits may be indicated by square brackets].
