Important Legal Ruling In Israel

[HelenaZF]

it's more the case that the courts have held that the state cannot automatically refuse entry to a messianic with a Jewish father/grandfather.

That seems to be the operative change here. At least now, a case can be made.



On a little bunny trail...I find it interesting that Jewish lineage is always traced through the mothers. But it's only been in this generation that science has found that mitochondrial DNA is only passed on through the mother, not the father. Of course, God knew that all along...science is just catching up.
