A federal judge in a Tuesday ruling ridiculed administrators at the University of California, Los Angeles, for allowing an anti-Israel encampment to block Jewish students’ access to campus — the first court rebuke of demonstrations that descended into antisemitic threats and intimidation at many colleges last spring.

US District Judge Mark Scarsi granted a preliminary injunction set to take effect Thursday that forces UCLA to maintain equal access to programs, activities or campus areas for Jewish and non-Jewish students alike.

In a scathing, 16-page order, Scarsi blasted UCLA’s Board of Regents for openly maintaining in court proceedings thus far that it had...

The following words might be shocking coming from a rabbi, but I am convinced that the traditional framing for how we prepare for Tisha B’Av seems ancient and out of touch compared to the complex grief we are reckoning with this year. The Jewish community is locked in the trauma unleashed more than 300 days...

This article initially appeared in My Jewish Learning’s Shabbat newsletter Recharge. To receive Recharge each week in your inbox, click here. For many years, I’ve written on Jewish texts and spiritual practice. Creating a dialogue between ancient sources and contemporary life has been deeply important to me. But during the pandemic, I found myself writing a fantasy novel. I was poking around looking at old files on my computer and came to a piece of a story — just a beginning, really — that I liked. The story had four women as its main characters: a warrior librarian, a mystic who could speak to trees and books, an apothecary and a former concubine with magical skills, all living in an enchanted and dangerous archipelago.

I’m a rabbi who wrote a fantasy novel. I couldn’t have done it without inspiration from our sacred past.
