Confronting the Challenge of Idolatry
Is Modern Orthodoxy Moving Towards an Acceptance of Biblical Criticism
If you take Louis Jacobs at his word, then the eruption of the so-called “Jacobs Affair” in the early 1960s was a big surprise to him. Some might find this difficult to believe, since how could the English United Synagogue ever have allowed one of its rabbis to advocate higher biblical criticism? Yet in one of my conversations with Jacobs, he insisted that he meant what he said, and that he had no reason to assume that because of his views about …
Yeshivot Lita
Reviewed by: Yeshivot Lita: Pirke zikhronot Marc B. Shapiro Immanuel Etkes and Shlomo Tikotsinski, eds. Yeshivot Lita: Pirke zikhronot. Jerusalem, 2004, Pp. 423.

Between the Yeshiva World and Modern Orthodoxy
The span of Rabbi Jehiel Jacob Weinberg's life (1884–1966) illuminates the religious and intellectual dilemmas that traditional Jewry has faced over the past century. Rabbi Weinberg became a central ideologue of modern Orthodoxy because of his positive attitude to secular studies and Zionism and his willingness to respond to social change in interpreting the halakhah . But Weinberg was an unusual man: even at a time when he was defending the trad…

Death and Euthanasia in Jewish Law
Suicide and the World-to-Come
In 1880 the Jewish community of Iraq was forced to confront a sharp increase in antisemitic persecution. Not all of the country's Jews were prepared for this new phenomenon and the result was a number of suicides. The Iraqi rabbinate, both shocked and determined to put an end to the needless taking of life, declared from all the synagogue pulpits that those who commit suicide have no share in the world-to-come. This idea was certainly not unknown…
The Traditional Family in Israel in the Process of Change--Crisis and Continuity
The purpose of this study has been to analyse the way in which 'traditional' immigrant families maintain and transform themselves in the process of rapid social change. The analysis is based on the situation in a smallholders' co-operative village in Israel-the Moshav,2 established in 1951 in the Jerusalem District and settled by seventy households of immigrants from Iraqi Kurdistan (Zafrira). The data are drawn from a questionnaire administered …
