Many specific indications would lead to this conclusion.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=jewsonfirst.org "The 2007 Commonwealth Prayer Breakfast: Rabbi Paula Reimers, Congregation Beth Israel, Lebanon, Pennsylvania, May 17, 2007" )〕〔(Rabbi Paula Rimmer: 2007 Commonwealth Prayer Breakfast" (pdf) )〕 ==Publications== "Feminism, Judaism, and God the Mother" (Conservative Judaism, Fall 1993) 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「Paula Reimers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
