The Zionist Orthodox community in Israel should be leading the social justice campaign that swept Israel over the summer, Rabbi Yaakov Ariel, chief rabbi of Ramat Gan and the president of the Ramat Gan yeshiva, reportedly told a conference of rabbis yesterday. But instead of doing that, Ariel said, the Zionist Orthodox community stood by quietly, Arutz Sheva reports.
Approximately 100 rabbis from across Israel joined together for the Social Justice and the Jewish State conference.
The “flag of social justice is the flag of religious Jews,” Ariel reportedly told his fellow rabbis.
