For the Orthodox Jewish community,
This is a newspaper for ‘Orthodox Jews’. It contains columns on various questions of Torah, and also on questions of public interest to the community. It is very pro- Israel in its political orientation, and would be considered in U.S. terms very ‘conservative ‘ on social issues.
Among its most longterm and famous columnists are Morris Mandel, and Arnold Fine.
It also has many other features including book- reviews, a childrens’ column.
It has a heimish quality and it is filled with advertisements and information largely for the New York City Jewish community.

|For ALL Jews not just the Orthodox,
I read this news paper whenever I can get my hands on it and I am a Reform Jew. It is a great paper and it opens my eyes up to all the issues regarding the Jewish Community as well as what is going on in Israel. I do thoroughly enjoy reading about all points of view, as this is a very conservative paper. I am very liberal minded. It has great articles inclusive of kashrut, torah and the like. Don’t be scared away by the other reviewer if you are not Orthodox. You will enjoy this as it is well written. Maybe if we acted like one community instead of dividing ourselves will labels like, Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, Modern Orthodox, Chasid, or Reconstructionist, we would better understand and respect each other than continue to be divided by what is different in our philosopies. Anyhow, fantastic newspaper for all to enjoy!

|Permanent press is a gentler cycle than regular. I usually wash my clothes on regular but I have khakis & the type of that are generally "permanent press".
Ben Yachovim left a comment by mistake on the wrong post. I am putting it here to get it in the right place. He had this to say:
>I feel it is inappropriate for a Gentile to be a rabbi.
That is a weird sentiment since in Judaism can become Rabbis. In fact in Judaism there are a few famous Rabbi Rabbi Akiva was the son of to Judaism.

Regarding the nice to see that some segments of the Jewish community still hold by Jewish values. (And right now, reading Marc The Jews of Rhodes, so especially in my cantankerous nostalgic mood. been musing a lot recently how Turkish/Balkan Sephardism is best hope for salvation.)
So Shimshonit, thanks for this!
