Royal Jews: Jewish Life in Berkshire from the Readmission Till Today
10.14324/111.444.jhs.2016v47.014 Royal Jews: Jewish Life in Berkshire from the Readmission till Today jonathan romain In a previous article for Transactions,1 I covered the remarkable history of the medieval river Jews – those who arrived after the Norman Conquest, settled in London and then gradually moved out along the River Thames to places where Jews today go for Sunday picnics (to Windsor, Marlow, Henley), which were certainly not high-density Jewish areas in the Middle Ages, but where there was a Jewish presence. That came to an end following the expulsion of the Jews in 1290 and lasted until their readmission by Cromwell in 1656. In reality there were a few exceptions by those who made brief appearances in the area under examination, Berkshire (but occasionally straying across its borders to South Buckinghamshire and parts of Oxfordshire). One such individual was found in 1450 living near Eton College, which had been established ten years earlier by Henry VI. Once discovered, the only way he could remain in the country was to be baptized. This occurred under the auspices of the king and so he took the name Henry of Eton, presumably a way of reflecting both his loyalty to the monarch and his place of residence at the time. He went to live in the Domus Conversorum in London, but left after three years, after which his whereabouts are unknown.2 A much longer resident was a Jew who converted and took the name Henry of Windsor, who stayed there from 1488 until his death in 1509.3 Everything changed after Cromwell: Jews emerged in London and later migrated to the Home Counties, the area west of London covering Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, and Oxfordshire.

Tammuz 5772 CHAIR’S REPORT June/July 2012
The Official Newsletter of Ne’ve Shalom, the Hull Reform Synagogue Tammuz 5772 CHAIR’S REPORT June/July 2012 We are currently in that quiet time leading up to the High Holy Days and there’s not a great deal to report. (if you’re interested, Erev Rosh Hashanah 5773 is on Sunday 16 September, 2012). Our Shavuot Service and Kiddush took place on Sunday 27 May and I am delighted to report that the turnout was quite good, but nothing special and I would like to thank those who did turn up and especially to all those who put in a lot of time and effort into preparing the excellent Shavuot Kiddush. I do appreciate that we all live very busy lives, but we are a Synagogue and Religion does tend play a big part in our activities (and not just on a Friday Night!). Speaking of the High Holy Days, we are in a position this year to be allocated a Student Rabbi to conduct our Services. Over the past two years, due to the unavailability of a Student Rabbi, our team of Lay Readers have conducted the High Holy Days Services competently and proficiently and we thank them for that. Before contacting the Movement for Reform Judaism requesting a Student Rabbi, I, and the Council, would like to know what the feeling of our Community is regarding the need for a Student Rabbi. To help us decide, we are organising a phone vote to gauge the feeling of the Community. Further details can be found on page 3.

Reform Judaism: in 1000 Words Welcoming Converts
Reform Judaism: In 1000 Words Welcoming Converts Context Since the early rabbinic period, Judaism has had a formal process by which those who are not Jewish are able to become so - conversion. While the core elements of this process have remained the same for nearly 2000 years, the attitude to those who might wish to join has varied significantly over time, with periods of active encouragement, reluctant welcome, and even the placing of obstacles. Where do we, as Reform Jews today, stand in relation to those who wish to join the Jewish people? In this essay, Rabbi Dr Jonathan Romain of Maidenhead Synagogue, places our attitude to welcoming converts in the context of a survey of the history of Jewish proselytising. He emphasises both the distinctive nature of our approach and its historical precedents. Content Conversion is an issue on which Jewish thinking has made a total volte-face over the centuries, initially being very pro-active, then becoming totally opposed to it, and recently becoming more accommodating. Reform Judaism has played a major role in this latest change in attitude. In its earliest form, Judaism was an avowedly missionary faith, convinced of its superiority over the surrounding pagan faiths. It started with Abraham and the reference - in the very first chapter in which he appears - to the souls that he had gotten in Haran (Genesis 12:5). Even if that could have been seen, instead, as a reference to the servants he had acquired, the fact that later Jewish tradition chose to view it as converts indicates its mind-set and the assumptions that it held.
