BREAKING: High Court to Chief Rabbinate: Ordain New Rabbi & Declare Pnina Pie Kosher
Cross-post by Yeze over at the Rosh Pina Project
Israel’s Chief Rabbi Shlomo Amir has claimed that the granting of a kosher licence to Pnina Conforti is a sign of the end of the world. One wonders how he’ll react to the High Court ruling that, as Rabbi Yosef Sheinin has refused to grant Pnina a kosher licence, the Chief Rabbinate will have to ordain a rabbi who will:
The High Court ordered the Chief Rabbinate to ordain a rabbi in its name who will grant a kosher certificate to restaurant owned by a Messianic Jew in Ashdod. This rabbi will act in place of Rabbi Yosef Sheinin, who refused to grant a kosher certificate to the establishment.
This is excellent news, and proof that Israel’s democracy and justice system are sturdy enough to withstand the machinations of those who wish harm upon Israeli’s minority citizens.
So, in this Hannukah and Christmas season, now you have yet another reason to celebrate by stuffing your face with pies!
