To All Our Friends,
City of David was promptly
welcomed by Education
Minister Zevulun Hammer.
But it was angrily de-
nounced by Ashkenazi
Chief Rabbi Shlomo Goren
who accused Zamir of
"casuistry to justify desec-
ration of graves."
The Attorney General's
legal opinion held that the
evidence presented so far by
the Chief Rabbinate to sup-
port its halakhic ruling that
the dig site is an old Jewish
cemetery "is not sufficient"
grounds to revoke the exca-
vation license awarded
years ago to a Hebrew Uni-
versity archeological team
by the government De-
partment of Antiquities.
However, Zamir stated,
the rabbis do have a great
deal of material evidence
that Jewish graves possibly
exist at the site and there-
- lore a careful scientific
examination is called for be-
fore the status of the dig
license can be finally de-
termined.
Hammer, a leader of
the National Religious
Party and an Orthodox-
Jew, hailed Zamir's opin-
ion for showing "sensitiv-
ity to all sides" in the con-
`• troversy. He indicated
that he would accept and
implement the proposal.
Goren's fury was aroused
apparently by Zamir's
statement that halakhic
authority was not the final
arbiter and cannot super-
sede the laws of the secular
state.
Zamir's opinion echoed
the 2-1 ruling by the Sup-
reme Court last week that
the rabbinate has no legal
right to determine state pol-
' icy.
The Attorney General's
opinion and the fact that the
Hebrew University team
headed by Prof. Yigal
Shilch will end the season's
diggings this week, are ex-
pected to defuse the con-
troversy which had
It is also expected that
the results of the scien-
tific investigation, if
properly conducted, will
be accepted as final by
the vast majority of Is-
raelis, secular and reli-
gious.
We wish you a happy,
healthy and
prosperous New Year

But many observers see
the controversy over the dig
as only symptomatic of a
larger power struggle be-
