This article examines the biblical narrative regarding human creation in the light of rabbinic literature, contesting its hierarchical interpretations and calling for ethical rereading of the text. The novel reading is guided by fundamental Jewish principles—bal tashḥit (“not destroying”), tsaʻar baʻlei ḥayyim (“distress of living creatures”), and tiqqun ha-ʻolam (“repair of the world”)—promoting all-encompassing justice. Seeking support from ancient Near Eastern myths, the paper presents a systematic ecofeminist analysis of the biblical narrative describing, as is argued, the creation of a primordial being (Gen. 1:26–28), the formation of humanity into a sustainable part of the ecosystem (Gen. 2:7), and the construction of genders (Gen. 2:18–23). The close reading of the creation story is informed by postmodern hermeneutics emphasizing reader response and meaning making.
本文从拉比文学的角度考察了圣经中关于人类创造的叙述，对其等级解释提出了质疑，并呼吁对文本进行伦理重读。小说的阅读以犹太的基本原则为指导——bal tashḥit(“不毁灭”)，tsa haar ba halei ḥayyim(“生灵的苦难”)，tiqqun ha- haolam(“修复世界”)——提倡无所不包的正义。本文从古代近东神话中寻求支持，对圣经叙事进行了系统的生态女性主义分析，这些叙事描述了原始生命的创造(创世记1:26-28)，人类成为生态系统中可持续发展的一部分(创世记2:7)，以及性别的建构(创世记2:18-23)。创世纪故事的细读受到后现代解释学的影响，强调读者的反应和意义的创造。

The immigration to Israel of most of Yemenite Jewry in 1948–1950, titled “Operation Magic Carpet” is symbolic of a miraculous leap in space and time from distant Yemen to the modern Jewish state. The Yemenite Jews’ utopian ethos, however, was far from able to foresee the trauma that awaited them in the transit camps where they were placed after their arrival in Israel: the kidnapping of thousands of infants in what became known as the “missing Yemenite-Jewish children affair.”

This article deals with the reaction of one particular American Jewish sector – the Jewish women - and their response to Nazi persecution of European Jews in the 1930s and the 1940s. As against the widespread accusations that American Jews did not do enough to help their co-religionists during those tragic years, this paper claims that Jewish women, of all social standing – from homemakers to professionals – were actively involved in organizing rescue operations and assisting refugees. Of particular note is one extraordinary woman – Cecilia Razovsky-Davidson.

The source of Libyan Jewish women's lore was the environment in which they lived, which was shaped—intellectually, socially, and economically—by the gender norms of Libyan Jews. These norms were based on Jewish traditions and the surrounding Muslim society, which since the mid-sixteenth century was under Ottoman rule until the Italian occupation of 1911. Formal education for Jewish girls became available in Libya from the 1870s, first through European enterprises and from the 1930s also by the community. This paper examines Libyan Jewish women's lore and what was the impact of the developing educational, social, and economic opportunities for growing numbers of Libyan Jewish women, mainly in the urban society, on their cultural capital from the late nineteenth century until the mass Jewish emigration from Libya starting in the late 1940s.
