| | Rabbi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Synagogue rabbis (also known as "pulpit rabbis") typically speak on behalf of their communities on a wide range of issues, offer spiritual leadership for their congregation, and are usually involved in Jewish lifecycle events. | | | In ancient times, Rabbi was a Hebrew term used as a title for those who were distinguished for learning, who were the authoritative teachers of the Law, or who were the appointed religious leaders of their community. | | | Orthodox rabbis typically study at yeshivas, which are dedicated religious schools. |

| | rabbi - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about rabbi |
| | Nowadays rabbis are involved in the education of the congregants and their children, visit people in hospital or prison, and look after the pastoral and religious welfare of the congregation. | | | Rabbis do not intercede with God on behalf of the congregation and do not necessarily lead the services in a synagogue, although they conduct most of them. | | | In Orthodox synagogues the rabbi is always male, but Reform synagogues also have female rabbis. |

| | Rabbis serve Orthodox, Conservative Reform and Reconstructionist Jewish congregations, preserving the substance of Jewish religious worship. | | | Rabbis also may write for religious and lay publications and teach in theological seminaries, colleges and universities. | | | The format of the worship service and, therefore, the ritual that the rabbi uses may vary even among congregations belonging to the same branch of Judaism. |

| | Rabbi, I could go on and on, but suffice it to say that the Talmud, the Zohar, the Midrashim, and the Jewish Prayer Book all support the view that Isaiah 53 refers to the Messiah not the people of Israel. | | | And you can't deny, Rabbi, that the 70 top Jewish scholars who translated the Old Testament from Hebrew to Greek all thought that "almah" means virgin, since they used the Greek word "parthenos"—virgin. | | | Rabbi Moshe Kohen Ibn Crispin (14th century) states that those who for controversial reasons apply the prophecy of the Suffering Servant to Israel find it impossible to understand the true meaning of this prophecy, "having forsaken the knowledge of our teachers, and inclined after the stubbornness of their own opinions." |

| | Etan Tokayer, a 31-year-old rabbi and former Judaics teacher at the Torah Academy of Bergen County, an Orthodox boys high school, says Rabbi Lanner was psychologically abusive to him from the time he was a seventh-grader in NCSY through high school. | | | The most disappointing part of the experience, she says, were rabbis who knew her since childhood testifying on Rabbi Lanner's behalf, asserting that he could never have done the things she alleged were done to her. | | | Frustrated, Elie Hiller wrote a letter graphically detailing Rabbi Lanner's alleged abusive behavior to him, his brother and others, and sent it to the entire Orthodox community of Teaneck, urging that Rabbi Lanner not be allowed to lead the new congregation. |

| | On The Contrary! |
| | Our Rabbis taught: “And when it rested they said ‘Return, O God, the multitudes of thousands of Israel’ (Bamidbar 10)” – this teaches that The Divine Presence doesn’t dwell amongst less than 22,000 Israelites. | | | So here are Rabbis acknowledging that religion and politics need to separate, so that each can focus on what it does best. | | | That the failed marriage of religion and politics is due to exactly that tension – we expect that religion remain pristine and clear, but it gets dragged down by politics which are necessarily dirty. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Rabbi and Rabbinism |
| | The Law, of course, must be the exclusive study of a Rabbi, as it is the one source of religious knowledge, the perfect embodiment of the will of God, and the people's sole binding rule of daily life. | | | Under this parasitic vegetation of traditional teaching the Law itself came gradually almost to be entirely lost sight of and stifled; yet every word designating the tradition was calculated to remind the Rabbi of the connexion of this tradition with the Law. | | | The word, derived from the Hebrew Rab, "great", originally seems to have been equivalent to "my lord"; when it became the distinctive title of the scribes the specific force of its pronoun was lost, and "Rabbi" was used very much like our "Doctor". |
