Torah Reading by Women?
Benedict RothMany members of orthodox synagogues believe that women's Torah reading is forbidden. But the traditional rabbinic sources are more nuanced: they give plenty of room for a community either to permit or to forbid as it chooses. Most rabbis don't teach these sources, but they are outlined in this podcast by Benedict Roth, an informal Jewish educator based in London. All the background sources can be found on www.torahreader.net
