    (6) Chalitza, Part 1

    Susan and Rivkah delve into the ancient ritual of chalitza, a halachic ceremony releasing a widow from marrying her late husband’s brother. What does chalitza mean for women today, especially in the modern state of Israel? What happens to a woman when chalitza can’t—or won’t—be done? Through personal stories, expert insights and a critical lens, we explore the halachic, legal, and cultural dimensions of this practice.    Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation.

    What does the Ottoman Sultan have to do with Jewish divorce in 2025? Susan and Rivkah delve into the surprising origins of Israel’s two-tracked civil system, consisting of religious and secular courts.    What is the difference between these secular and religious courts, and how do Israelis decide where to go? Are non-Jews in Israel also bound by religious courts? And how can a democratic state operate religious courts, anyway?    Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation.

    (4) Marrying Outside the Rabbinate, with Rabbi Chuck Davidson of Chuppot

    Chuppot is an independent rabbinic-halachic organization that marries couples in accordance with Jewish law--but outside the purview of the State Rabbinate. Since its establishment in 2018, Chuppot has married 1600 couples... and counting.    Why does an alternative like this exist? And what ramifications does it have for the next generation?    Rivkah speaks with Rabbi Chuck Davidson, director of Chuppot’s halachic department.   Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation.

    Can a Jewish marriage that was never consummated be annulled? Not so fast. Susan Weiss and Rivkah Lubitch tell the story of a 17-year-old girl in a marriage she can’t escape.   The episode introduces the halachic concept of “ma’is alay”–“he disgusts me”–circumstances under which a woman cannot stand to sleep with her husband, which has implications for divorce.    Being repulsed by her husband did not help the 17-year-old girl get out of her marriage. What did?   Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation.
