Rabbi Farber is an Orthodox rabbi "dedicating my life to breaking the ultra-Orthodox monopoly over Jewish life in Israel" and founder of ITIM, an advocacy organization fighting for a more inclusive religious establishment in Israel. "I have not been detained by the Israeli police on my way to morning prayers, but I am preparing for that eventuality. That’s the new reality of life in the Jewish state for those of us who publicly oppose Jewish fundamentalism. Just ask my colleague Rabbi Dov Hayoun."
