Journey to Open Orthodoxy

by Avraham Weiss, Jeffrey S. Gurock (Foreword)

In Journey to Open Orthodoxy , Rabbi Avi Weiss outlines his vision of Judaism—a vision that in recent years has become known as “Open Orthodoxy.” The scope of this work reveals that Open Orthodoxy goes well beyond such controversial issues as women's ordination and LGBT+ inclusion. For Rav Avi, Open Orthodoxy is holistic, embracing the whole of Jewish spiritual, religious, halakhic and national life. The title of the book, Journey to Open Orthodoxy , invites readers to evaluate the book’s content while assessing their own journeys, leading, it may be hoped, to a consideration of an Orthodoxy that is inclusive, non-judgmental, modern and open.
