Picture of the Day

I am sorry, but as often as I see pictures of women in tefillin, it still looks strange to me.

She is wearing the tefillin to low on her forehead, but maybe it slipped down as she leaned over to look. The other problem is the headband under her tefillin.


The point of this picture is the new padlock placed on the mechitza by Rav Rabinovitch, rav of the Kotel, to prevent the opening of the mechitza for passage of a Torah scroll to the women, as happened last month.

  2. What are they going to do when WoW get their own Sefer Torah? It may or may not be Kosher, but will the powers that be let them read it, or will they come up with something ridiculous to prevent it?

    1. Craziness. בית תפילה יקרא לכל העמים. Unless you're not the right kind of Jewish, of course.
