Whose Torah? by Rebecca Alpert
Rabbi Rebecca Alpert is a leading voice in progressive Judaism. A crusader for reform within the Jewish community, she was one of the first women in Jewish history to be ordained a rabbi. Alpert is a celebrated teacher, an expert on Jewish American religious history and a key public advocate for progressive social issues in contemporary Jewish life. Here, she sketches a compelling portrait of the progressive values that belong to the core of Judaism today.
Rebecca Alpert is the chair of the religion department and an associate professor of religion and women’s studies at Temple University and was one of the first women in Jewish history to be ordained a rabbi. She has written widely on progressive religion and Judaism; among her books are Like Bread on the Seder Plate and Exploring Judaism (with Jacob Straub). She lives in Philadelphia.
