OCT. 27, 2002 The courteous and competent real-estate agent I'd just hired to rent my house shocked and offended me when, after we signed our contract, he refused to shake my hand, saying that as an Orthodox Jew he did not touch women. As a feminist, I oppose sex discrimination of all sorts. However, I also support freedom of religious expression. How do I balance these conflicting values? Should I tear up our contract? J.L., New York This culture clash may not allow you to reconcile the values you esteem. Though the agent dealt you only a petty slight, without ill intent, you're entitled to work with someone who will treat you with the dignity and respect he shows his male clients. If this involved only his own person -- adherence to laws concerning diet or dress, for example -- you should of course be tolerant. But his actions directly affect you. And sexism is sexism, even when motivated by religious convictions.
  • 1 Jews, Gentiles, and the Modern Egalitarian Ethos

    1 Jews, Gentiles, and the Modern Egalitarian Ethos

    Jews, Gentiles, and the Modern Egalitarian Ethos: Some Tentative Thoughts David Berger The deep and systemic tension between contemporary egalitarianism and many authoritative Jewish texts about gentiles takes varying forms. Most Orthodox Jews remain untroubled by some aspects of this tension, understanding that Judaism’s affirmation of chosenness and hierarchy can inspire and ennoble without denigrating others. In other instances, affirmations of metaphysical differences between Jews and gentiles can take a form that makes many of us uncomfortable, but we have the legitimate option of regarding them as non-authoritative. Finally and most disturbing, there are positions affirmed by standard halakhic sources from the Talmud to the Shulhan Arukh that apparently stand in stark contrast to values taken for granted in the modern West and taught in other sections of the Torah itself. Let me begin with a few brief observations about the first two categories and proceed to somewhat more extended ruminations about the third. Critics ranging from medieval Christians to Mordecai Kaplan have directed withering fire at the doctrine of the chosenness of Israel. Nonetheless, if we examine an overarching pattern in the earliest chapters of the Torah, we discover, I believe, that this choice emerges in a universalist context. The famous statement in the Mishnah (Sanhedrin 4:5) that Adam was created singly so that no one would be able to say, “My father is greater than yours” underscores the universality of the original divine intent. While we can never know the purpose of creation, one plausible objective in light of the narrative in Genesis is the opportunity to actualize the values of justice and lovingkindness through the behavior of creatures who subordinate themselves to the will 1 of God.

  • Milestones in Publishing the Spanish and Portuguese Prayer Book in London

    Milestones in Publishing the Spanish and Portuguese Prayer Book in London

    MILESTONES IN PUBLISHING THE SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE PRAYER BOOK IN LONDON By Dr Roy Shasha, Jerusalem – August 2020 Introduction The year 2020 marks the publication of the first new British edition of the Spanish and Portuguese prayer book in over 100 years. This achievement represents the culmination of many years of planning, a major re-editing of the text and the preparation of a new translation by a small body of dedicated professional staff and a larger number of equally dedicated volunteers. Therefore, this is perhaps an appropriate moment for us to stand back and view this achievement within its historical context. An excellent brief history of the printing of the Spanish and Portuguese prayer book was written by Hakham Gaster in the introduction to his edition of the prayer book, and the writer wishes to acknowledge his debt to this important piece of work. However, the intention and scope of this work is quite different to that of Dr Gaster in a number of respects. 1. We have attempted to list all Spanish and Portuguese prayer books planned, printed, or edited in London, including a number that were not authorised by the Mahamad and one that was written but not published. Also included are all the known Spanish translations of the text prepared in London. 2. Each volume seen has been described in a precise bibliographical fashion, and as far as possible not only reprints, but also bibliographical variants have been noted. 3. Each edition has been placed wherever possible in a historical context. A brief biography of each editor or translator has been included, together with information as to how the books were distributed.

  • Introduction

    Introduction

    Introduction In the preceding sections we have looked into the general strategies of London’s Sephardi congregation with regard to oversight of printed materials as they transpired from the Mahamad’s decisions, and offered an analysis of the logics behind these strategies, as they translated into a defined language policy. In brief, the congregation consciously sought to have full control over printed materials, while at the same time, and not following any specific deci- sion, it created four realms of activity, with each allotted a specific language. This analysis will not be complete without an address of the practices of implementation over the years. Part 3 explores the extent to which the print regulations were applied and the degree to which community members inter- ested in publishing sought out the Mahamad’s permission. Did the Mahamad actually strive to implement its censorial policies? Was it able to effectively apply them? It will be safe to assume that changes made to the censorship by- law over the course of time were not devoid of context and reflected the shifting challenges with which the Mahamad had to cope (some of those chal- lenges were hinted at above). Perhaps then, the best way to analyze the pat- terns of censorship and their amendment over time will be to look into the publications on the one hand, and the censorial trends on the other, that char- acterized the periods between the various versions of the Ascamot, from 1664 and up to the beginning of the nineteenth century. This analysis will also give us a new perspective through which we can understand the metamorphosis of the congregation with the passing of time.
