Rabbis Paint
Dismal Picture

RI Aviv (JTA) — Six visitors
from the Soviet Union, in-
cluding the chief rabbis of
Moscow, Leningrad and
Odessa, praised the policies of
President Mikhail Gorbachev
on their recent arrival in
Israel but reported sad tales
of Jewish religious life there.
The visitors are Chief Rab-
bi Adolf Shayevich of Moscow,
Chief Rabbi Haim Levitis of
Leningrad, Aharon Litvan,
head of the Jewish communi-
ty in Odessa, and three other
Jewish representatives from
those cities.
This is the first time since
the Bolshevik revolution in
1917 that the chief rabbis of
the two most important
Soviet cities were allowed to
come here on a visit.
The visitors despaired of the
state of religious life in that
community and attributed
the situation to ignorance of
Judaism on the part of most
Soviet Jews, and 70 years of
anti-religious indoctrination
by the Communist regime.
Litvan said an entire year
can go by without a single bar
mitzvah being celebrated at
Odessa's one synagogue.
He said the synagogue can
accommodate 800 people, but
that no more than 30 to 50
worshippers attend Sabbath
services. The city is also
without a mohel; when ser-
vices are needed, one is
brought in from Riga, Cher-
nowitz or Leningrad to per-
form the ritual circumcision.
Rabbi Levitis said he
recently received permission
to teach Hebrew and Jewish
studies in Leningrad, but
only to adults.
"The adults are like
children," he said, in their
knowledge of Jewish subjects.
