Conversion to Judaism in Jewish Law

THE FREEHOF INSTITUTE OF PROGRESSIVE HALAKHAH The Freehof Institute of Progressive "Halakhah" is a creative research center devoted to studying and defining the progressive character of the "halakhah" in accordance with the principles and theology of Reform Judaism. It seeks to establish the ideological basis of Progressive "halakhah," and its application to daily life. The Institute fosters serious studies, and helps scholars in various portions of the world to work together for a common cause. It provides an ongoing forum through symposia, and publications including the quarterly newsletter, "HalakhaH," published under the editorship of Walter Jacob, in the United States. The foremost "halakhic" scholars in the Reform, Liberal, and Progressive rabbinate along with some Conservative and Orthodox colleagues as well as university professors serve on our Academic Council.
