The First Fifty Years
A Jubilee in Prose and Poetry Honoring Women Rabbis
Rabbi Sue Levi Elwell, Jessica Greenbaum, Rabbi Hara E. Person
Central Conference of American Rabbis, 2023
The ordination of Rabbi Sally J. Priesand in 1972 was a watershed moment in Jewish history. In The First Fifty Years, contributors from across the Jewish and gender
spectrums reflect on the meaning of this moment and the ensuing decades, both personally and for the Jewish community. In short pieces of new prose, authors—
many of them pioneering rabbis—share stories, insights, analysis, and celebrations of women in the rabbinate. These are intertwined with a wealth of poetry that
poignantly captures the spirit of this anniversary. The volume is a deep, heartfelt tribute to women rabbis and their indelible impact on all of us.
