ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Women rabbis and Torah scholars

Okay, so you know how there are some very special people in our community who help us learn about and follow Jewish teachings? These people are called rabbis and Torah scholars. They are very knowledgeable about our religion and can answer questions when we are confused or curious.

In the past, only men were allowed to become rabbis and Torah scholars. But over time, many people realized that women could also be very knowledgeable and important members of the Jewish community. So now, women can also become rabbis and Torah scholars!

This means that girls and women can study just as hard as boys and men and become experts in Jewish teachings. They can also share their knowledge with others and help guide our community in following the right path.

It's important to remember that every person is unique and important, no matter their gender. That's why we should always support and encourage everyone to follow their dreams and share their gifts with the world.
