| Zusammenfassung: | Not enough has been done to integrate the value of equal rights for women into Jewish religious life and teaching. On the one hand, traditional Judaism (both in its sources and by its spokesmen) differentiates between the status of man and woman, without seriously taking into consideration the feeling of the latter, and without respecting her human rights. On the other hand, Jewish Feminism starts from modern individual or group feelings of frustration, without taking God seriously, with little understanding for the spirituality of Bible and tradition and with recklessness regarding the preservation of the Jewish family and people.Jewish Feminism is quite right to criticize Jewish tradition for failing to lift up the lack of attention to women's contribution to both the spirituality and the preservation of Torah Judaism. Tradition did recognize the contribution of women to both spirituality and preservation, but indirectly and in a form that would not be appropriate for the modern day. |
