The role of women in the synagogue is a most timely but potentially divisive issue. Grossman and Haut have demonstrated the historical diversity of women's roles in Judaism, to record first-person accounts of the innovative practices now being introduced for and by women throughout the Jewish community, and to consider how these new realities will help to shape the religious life of Jewish women in the future. The contributors represent an interdisciplinary approach to the subject, drawing from history, anthropology, sociology, medieval studies, women's studies, Jewish law, the Bible, the Talmud, and rabbinic thought. The book will be of interest to lay reader and scholar alike, to Jews and Christians, feminists, synagogue leaders, and clergy. 606 $aWomen in synagogues 606 $aJewish women$xReligious life 606 $aWomen (Jewish law) 606 $aPrayer$xJudaism 606 $aJewish women$vBiography 615 0$aWomen in synagogues. 615 0$aJewish women$xReligious life. 615 0$aWomen (Jewish law) 615 0$aPrayer$xJudaism. 615 0$aJewish women 676 $a296.6/5/082 701 $aGrossman$b Susan$f1954-$01865884 701 $aHaut$b Rivka$f1942-2014.$01865885 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962713203321 996 $aDaughters of the king$94473107 997 $aUNINA
