Sigalit Ur

Rabbi Dr. Sigalit Ur co-leads the Israeli Rabbis Network, a pluralistic network of rabbis from all denominations. Sigalit is a David Hartman Center Fellow and was a fellow of the third cohort of Maskilot. She is a graduate of the Institute and Ha’Midrasha Be’Oranim’s Beit Midrash for Israeli Rabbis, where she received ordination in 2018. She received her PhD in Talmud from Tel Aviv University, where she received the President of Israel’s Scholarship for Excellence

Are My Prayers for Israel, or Are Israel’s Prayers For Me?

What should the relationship between Israel and the Diaspora look and feel like? The contours of that relationship have long been a negotiation.

Sigalit Ur looks at the ways the rabbis navigated the question of when and where to pray for rain to develop a richer vocabulary for thinking about the future between Jews living in Israel and around the world.
