Israeli rabbinical courts are about to have a lot more control over women
Summary by Ground News
Women's rights advocates say the government's plans to strengthen the Chief Rabbinate's authority will damage the status of women in Israel. The rabbinical courts, which do not have any female judges, are viewed as rendering decisions that are less favorable to women because of their inferior status under traditional Jewish law.
