I have never seen an Orthodox publication allowing one of its authors to discuss the following: “the struggle over allegiance to Palestinian or Babylonian Halacha” that ensued during the Geonic period. I thought that subject was taboo in Chareidi circles.<br /><br />Along those lines, I would like to point out that the editor of the new Otazr Ha'Tefilos volume recently published by the Encyclopedia Ha'Talmudit organization also spoke openly about Nusach Eretz Yisroel in his introduction to the book and Rabbi David Cohen, author of the volume includes references to Nusach Eretz Yisroel in his work.<br /><br />Did the material uncovered in the Geniza recently receive Glatt Kosher Certification? I must have missed that memo. <br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157868497534649595.post-22990863905972905742012-12-28T12:31:19.402-05:002012-12-28T12:31:19.402-05:00Every periodical obviously has an editorial stance...Every periodical obviously has an editorial stance, in the case of Dialogue, they are pro choice :-) regarding MbP.

I was quite surprised that they would tackle the Homosexuality issue so thoroughly. Kudos to Dialogue.<br /><br />I was even more impressed that Rabbi Blech's article features a nice Peshat quoted from Rabbi JB Soloveichik. It seems that Dialogue is more open about many things than one might have expected.<br /><br />I understand that Rabbi Feldman is on their Board, but it is still noteworthy that they feature essays from two senior members of the Moetzes.Chaimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157868497534649595.post-31380612002114533642012-12-10T12:36:51.745-05:002012-12-10T12:36:51.745-05:00It is distributed by Feldheim, so it is probably a...It is distributed by Feldheim, so it is probably available where Jewish books are sold.
