Why does a 3,300 year-old piece of rock from Mount Ebal matter?
By
Shawn Zelig Aster
For starters, it may help connect several other texts used to reconstruct history, though archaeology largely reflects messy events, and not neat narratives
Gadeer Kamal-Mreeh
Israel is Yazan Falah and Amir Khoury
Today, the diverse peoples of Israel’s maturing society can disagree, find fault, work together to improve, and stand united against the terror of extremists
John L. Rosove
Ukrainian refugees and Israel’s ‘Jewish’ character
The religious right opposes welcoming those fleeing the conflict, the middle-left supports it – stances that reveal how each group defines a Jewish state
Olexiy Minakov
The problem has always been Russia
Even the fall of Putin would only halt Russia’s aggression temporarily; for real regional change, the regime must undergo the slow process of demilitarization
Idit Silman, what are you afraid of?
By
Zev Farber
It’s soft coercion, to be sure, but it is counterproductive; Judaism and the Jewish character of the State of Israel will suffer for it
Minister Kahana, we American Orthodox rabbis can’t support your reform
By
Leonard Matanky
Decentralizing the authority for conversion to local rabbinic courts means potentially contradictory standards that we in the US are glad to be rid of
David Stav
Why Diaspora Jewish leaders should support the conversion bill in Israel
Empowering local rabbis will actually strengthen the Chief Rabbinate, introduce transparency, and help stem a looming halachic and demographic catastrophe
Why Orban matters
By
Paul Gross
Hungary’s re-elected prime minister is now the role model for illiberal nationalists and wannabe authoritarians across the globe, including in Israel
Naomi Chazan
A special effort to calm tempers and quell violence
Israel’s shifting norms may mean the conscious creation of a value-driven shared society is possible, somewhere between a one-state and two-state solution
I could never cover my wild hair
By
Aileen Weintraub
I was becoming Orthodox, but when I realized that I needed my curls to stay free, I lost my best friend – and gained a husband
Top Ops
Butan Amedi
Where’s the apartheid?
In Jerusalem, I was surprised to see a Muslim man praying in Machane Yehuda market. How could Amnesty International accuse Israel of apartheid?
Konstanty Gebert
For a Polish Jew like me, the war on Ukraine is about our shared futures
Given the history of antisemitism, it is legitimate to be skeptical, but it’s clear to me that resistance to Russia is a shared fight for freedom
Asaf Malchi
Are Haredi Israelis destroying the workplace for their secular colleagues?
Integrating the ultra-Orthodox into the workforce is essential for the well-being of Israeli society, the labor market, and the ultra-Orthodox community itself
Adam Etzion
Breaking up a government over sandwiches
Just because Israel is a Jewish country doesn’t mean strict Passover observance wins over non-observant people’s right to eat what they want – except when it does
