| | Rabbi |
 | | Rabbi is a Hebrew term used as a title for those who are distinguished for learning, who are the authoritative teachers of the Law, and who are the appointed spiritual heads of the community. | | | The term rabbi commonly refers to the spiritual leader of a Jewish synagogue. | | | The title 'Rabbi,' too, came into vogue among those who received the laying on of hands at this period, as, for instance, Rabbi Zadok, Rabbi Eliezer ben Jacob, and others, and dates from the time of the disciples of Rabban Johanan ben Zakkai downward. |

| | Rabbi Tirzah Firestone, is a psychotherapist and the spiritual leader of the Jewish Renewal Congregation community of Boulder, Colorado. | | | In the first half of his book, Rabbi Greenberg takes us on his personal journey to a rethinking of Christianity, which ultimately gave rise to his belief that Christianity, Judaism (and every religion that works to repair the world and advance the triumph of life) are valid expressions of the pact between God and humankind. | | | She was ordained as a rabbinic pastor and spiritual guide (mashpiah ruchanit) by Rabbi Zalman Schacher-Shalomi and is one of the spiritual leaders of her local Jewish Renewal community in Berkley, California. |

| | Case of Rabbi Yona Metzger - Chief Rabbi (Ashkenazi) in Israel |
| | The immediate impetus was an expose some months ago in the Israeli daily Maariv on Rav Shlomo Aviner, the revered chief rabbi of Beit El and a central figure in the religious Zionist camp — "the rabbi's rabbi," the "holy of holies," as he has been called by his followers. | | | AT A GLANCE, the accusations of sexually harassing men against Israel's chief rabbi call to mind the scandal in the Catholic Church, which is reeling from charges by hundreds of men who say they were sexually abused by priests. | | | Several women called Kolech to complain about Rabbi Yitzchak Cohen, a former head of, and later a lecturer in, the midrasha at Bar-Ilan University, who they claimed sexually harassed them when they were students at the university some years ago. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The High Priest |
| | The rabbis held that even before the Exile the high-priest alone was anointed by pouring the sacred oil "over him" and applying it to his forehead over the eyes "after the form of the Greek X" (Edersheim, "The Temple, Its Ministry and Service at the Time of Jesus Christ", 71). | | | Schürer holds that the chief priests in the New Testament were ex-high-priests and also those who sat in the council as members and representatives of the privileged families from whom the high-priests were chosen (The Jewish People, Div. | | | In the New Testament (Matt., ii, 4; Mark, xiv, 1, etc.) where reference is made to chief priests, some think that these all had been high-priests, who having been deposed constituted a distinct class and had great influence in the Sanhedrin. |

| | But when leading rabbis urged soldiers to refuse to participate in the disengagement, politicians, journalists and even senior army officers instantly asserted that religious Zionists can no longer be trusted – never mind the lack of evidence; we all "know" that they obey their rabbis blindly – and should henceforth be barred from becoming officers. | | | Yet instead of rejecting the society that was so quick to reject them, most religious soldiers consulted their consciences and concluded that despite rabbinic urgings, their own opposition to the disengagement and the horror of evicting people from their homes, the rift that mass refusal could create in Israeli society was the greater evil. | | | "When Matthew Gelband and Leah Waldman got married outside Jerusalem last year, it seemed only natural to invite Matthew's rabbi - a leader in New York's modern Orthodox community - to officiate. |
