Jewish Grandchildren
By Susan Handelman
My aim here is not to engage directly in arguments about the Torah's view of homosexuality, or feminism, or the problems of singles in the Jewish community.

The Curse of Eve
By Tova Bernbaum
Those who refer to the biblical story of Eve as a Divine endorsement of sexism are overlooking a simple truth: a curse is not something that should to be the way it is -- it's something that should not be the way it is... 7 Comments | |
