Abstract

In the freedom and acceptance that American Jews enjoy in the late twentieth century, intermarriage rates are rising rapidly. Often ignored and always condemned, intermarriage has nonetheless brought into our temples many non-Jewish spouses, who without conversion are not recognized as temple members, even when they marry into active Jewish families. Teshuvah is a new paradigm offering an identifiable status to these non-Jews, opening the door to conversion while not requiring it. Teshuvah, a Hebrew word meaning 'turning,' alows these spouses to turn to the study of Judaism and to participate in Jewish religious life, while maintaining their own spiritual identity.
