The PUAH Institute (Hebrew: מכון פועה Machon Puah) is an Israel-based, international organization that works with Jewish couples with fertility problems . PUAH was founded in 1990 at the request of Rabbi Mordechai Eliyahu to bridge the gap between fertility treatment and Jewish law. The institute offers counseling services and technical support for couples dealing with infertility. ==Background== (詳細はIVF and related treatments at their outset in the 1980s were viewed with great skepticism by the religious communities. Within the Orthodox Jewish community the concept was debated. In general, traditional Judaism views medical intervention positively. Regarding ART, the positive view of medicine is challenged by the Jewish religious legal system (halacha) which has numerous laws regarding modesty, sexuality and verifiable lineage. Rabbi Menachem Burstein was requested by Rabbi Mordechai Eliyahu to create a framework to assist couples in navigating the medical options while remaining within Jewish halacha.〔L'institut Pouah ouvre une section francophone, Benjamin David, Le JAMIF : Journal de l'Association des médecins israëlites de France, numéro 460, Mai-Juin 1997〕 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「Puah Institute」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
