“Today the Court said loud and clear that the Government of Israel must be courageous and move forward with the struggle for equality at the Western Wall and for pluralism in Israel. The judges were a voice of sanity that will hopefully allow this situation to resolve itself peacefully. They have also given hope to all girls and women who simply want to read Torah without harassment at Judaism’s holiest site.”

(Women of the Wall chair Anat Hoffman on the Supreme Court’s decision to allow women to pray at the Western Wall, 12/01/2017)
