Used our @joinlightning Knowledge Graph of the Jewish library (900 texts, 2M entities, 16M interrelationships) to dive deep on demons in the Babylonian Talmud.










I am not Reform or Conservative - I am an Orthodox Rabbi, fully committed to halakha and the Jewish tradition - yet I am deeply disturbed by what is happening at the egalitarian prayer space at the Kotel. The Jewish people, with all their streams and movements, make up one family. We are held together by a common heritage, a shared history that is stained with the blood of our persecuted ancestors, whom we mourn each Tish’a B’av. Our Conservative and Reform brothers and sisters deserve their own sacred space. Antagonism towards other streams of Judaism, even as it masquerades as concern for the future of the Jewish people and the Torah, is as unforgivable as it is ineffective. It completely fails to enhance the image of Orthodoxy in the eyes of our own community or in the eyes of world Jewry. timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry…
