RABBI’S WEDDING
ANCIENT JEWISH LAW ORTHODOX OBSERVANCES Owing to a Rabbi’s ban, there were no sleeveless frocks at a wedding in the East End, London, a few weeks ago. Men danced with men and women with women at the feast which followed. The bride was Miss Yetta Gerber, daughter of the strictly orthodox Rabbi Gerber, of the Jewish congregation in Cannon Street Road, and she was married to Rabbi I. Rudnick, who has studied in the theological seminaries of Eastern Europe and Palestine. Rabbi Gerber insisted that the ancient orthodox Jewish law should be followed in every particular. Two receptions were held before the wedding, one for men at the house of the bridegroom, and the other for women at the bride’s home. The bride and bridegroom stood under a canopy while the ceremony was performed. The service concluded with the -crushing underfoot by tho bridegroom of a glass.
