(JTA) Many of my fellow rabbinical students and friends are enthusiastic about a new strategy for elevating womens voices in Torah study into the beit midrash this fall. The Kranjec Test named for Danielle Kranjec, the Jewish educator who created it holds that collections of texts known as source sheets must include at least one non-male voice. Its the Jewish studies equivalent of the well-known Bechdel test for film, in which movies pass if they include two women having a conversation about something other than men, and it quickly gained currency among my colleagues

As we approach the 24th of Teves, the yahrzeit of the Alter Rebbe Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi (1745-1812), founder of the Chabad chassidic movement we should consider what he aimed to accomplish with his unique path in serving Hashem. He actually explained his goal in great detail in a surprising source a Hebrew affidavit written in reply to his czarist interrogators during his first arrest in 1798. After replying in Russian to simpler questions, he asked for an interpreter to answer more complex questions.
