Maharat is a term for a female leader in Judaism. The word ''maharat'' is a Hebrew acronym for words ''manhiga hilkhatit rukhanit Toranit'' ((ヘブライ語:מנהיגה הלכתית רוחנית תורנית)) denoting a female "leader of Jewish law spirituality and Torah". Maharat, as a clergy title, is awarded with smicha to the graduates of a 4-year-long program composed of profound studies of Jewish law, Talmud, Torah, Jewish thought, leadership training, and pastoral counseling. On 3.11.2015 the Moetzes of Agudath Israel of America declared Open Orthodoxy, Yeshivat Chovevei Torah, Yeshivat Maharat and other affiliated entities to be similar to other dissident movements throughout Jewish history in having rejected basic tenets of Judaism.〔http://hamodia.com/2015/11/03/moetzes-open-orthodoxy-not-a-form-of-torah-judaism/〕〔http://www.jpost.com/Diaspora/Breach-in-US-Orthodox-Judaism-grows-as-haredi-body-rejects-Open-Orthodoxy-institutions-431929〕〔http://forward.com/news/323887/agudath-rabbis-declare-war-on-open-orthodoxy/〕 ==History== In 2009, rabbi Avi Weiss ordained Sara Hurwitz. She was the first woman to receive the title. That same year, together with rabbi Weiss, she founded a yeshivat (religious school) for women: Yeshivat Maharat, where rabba Hurwitz serves as dean. By 2014, 5 women have been ordained after graduating of this school. In 2015, the title of maharat has been granted to the first European: Miriam Gonczarska of Poland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.yeshivatmaharat.org/class-of-2015/2014/5/21/miriam-gonczarska )〕 There is an ongoing debate in the orthodox Jewish world whether women can be called rabbis. Sara Hurwitz with smicha has received a rabbi title. However this has called a strong protests from the orthodox rabbis council, so it was accepted that she would be called ''rabba'' (female version of ''rabbi''), but all her followers could receive only the maharat title. Her mentor rabbi Weiss has continuously tried to advocate for the right for female clergy to use the rabbi title. In protest for denying this right to women, rabbi Weiss resigned from Rabbinical Council of America 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maharat」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
