Call 386-1991 for appointment Sephardi Chief Rabbi Approv es Bat Mitzva JERUSALEM (JTA) -- Israel's Sephardic Chief Rabbi, Ovadia Yosef, has ruled that Bat Mitzva cele- brations (for girls reaching the age of 12) are every bit as legitimate and valid as Bar Mitzvot for boys of 13. Writing in the current annual issue of the Hechal Shlomo Year Book, Yosef explained that both celebra- tions were "Seudat Mitzva" (religious feasts) to celeb- rate the entry of the boy or girl into halakhic adult- hood, defined as the duty to obey the mitzvot (com- mandments). Yosef conceded the Bat Mitzva celebration was not formerly common among Jewish communities. But he explained that this was perhaps because Jewish girls in olden days "ab- sorbed religious values in the home." Nowadays, in the much more open society around us, it was essen- tial "from the pedagogic point of view" to encour- age girls by giving them Bat Mitzva parties and not causing feelings of resentment among girls by "discriminating" be- tween them and boys, the Chief Rabbi stated. In the same publication, Ashkenazic Chief Rabbi Shlomo Goren handed down an important ruling-in- principle on the matter of conversion (ger). If a would-be convert says he in- tends to accept upon him- self the Jewish religion, and abide by all the mitzvot, but does not intend to accept upon himself Jewish nationhood — to become a member of the Jewish na- tion — then his conversion to Judaism is invalid. A convert, Goren wrote, must accept both elements, which are indivisible: Jewish religion and Jewish peoplehood. He cited the bi- blical saga of Ruth to prove his point. Ruth, in her declara- tion of conversion, says to Naomi: "Your people are my people and your God is my God." This shows clearly, Goren wrote, that the people element is even more im- portant — and certainly as important — as the God element. The Jewish religion is in essence a national creed, the Chief Rabbi wrote, even though many of its precepts are universal. Old Bureaucracy JERUSALEM (ZINS) — Archeologists in Jerusalem recently unearthed 53 gov- ernment seals believed to be 2,500 years old. Prof. Yigal Shiloh said the seals were used by offi- cials after reading impor- tant documents. A docu- ment tied with string and then sealed with clay could have as many as a dozen seals embossed in the clay, the professor said.
