Women in the minyan

שו"תWomen in the minyan
שאל לפני 6 שנים

Hello,
I saw your answers, regarding the issue of women's access to the Torah. In one of the references, you write that you are in favor of women's minyans and that 10 women are joining the minyan.

  1. You are referring to the fact that you have already written your opinion on the subject. I did not find a discussion of the subject in your article, so if there is one, I apologize. I would be happy to find a link, if not, I would be happy if you could expand on the words of the sages on the subject.

The only source in the Sage literature on the subject that I have found is the opinion that one slave joins nine men, and not two slaves for eight. (Rabbi Eliezer freed his slave). And usually women and slaves were "hardened" to each other.
2. And if possible, I would like to clarify the question about the blessing before the reading, whether women will bless it, which is a matter of holiness.
3. And another question on the subject, is it possible to say that because a woman does not recognize the obligation to read the Torah (say, she declares this or is seen in a synagogue sitting outside), can we say (as in the laws of Iruv) that someone who does not recognize his obligation to perform a certain religious act will not be able to join as a member of the minyan to perform it (like Iruv) (obviously there are many such men and the question applies to them as well, but unfortunately today everyone who has a Y chromosome is ascended, even secular atheists – so proof from the custom is a lie)
Good afternoon

Can you provide a link to the answers you are referring to? I don't remember writing an article about that. It may have been here on the site (I also had comments on an article that claimed otherwise, and maybe that's what I meant). If women join the minyan, they can of course also say something sacred. In the margins of my remarks, I will note that regarding something sacred, this is generally a mystery to me. What is the prohibition against saying it in less than ten? What prohibition are we violating? And why am I forbidden to dedicate to God one or two sons? I just want to tell my friends to bless the blessed God forever and ever. Is it forbidden? I know that it is common to think that it is forbidden, but I really don't understand it. Regarding your last question, it seems to me that it is simple to understand that someone who does not know anything does not join the minyan. Both for men and women. I personally do take great care, as much as I can, not to invite such people to Torah (with the obligatory status) and not to include them in the minyan.
