"Is Rebecca Lubitz normal?", Wondered in response to Rabbi Amichai Eliyahu, head of the Community Rabbinical Association, adding that "because of the respect of the people, I did not ask her the wording of the question she chose as the title of her class."

"In the past month, I have found myself working in countless rabbinic and rabbinical initiatives in the community of rabbis, whose goal is to address the great thirst and the growing need for a spiritual and spiritual response," Eliyahu added, but says that "in the face of this thirst and willingness to answer faith, embrace, love, strengthen and give. The heart, they have a bunch of 'refrigerators', people who are busy cranking out every corner of faith - who are examining whether Moshe is a bastard, whether to take alcohol with alcohol, whether to bathe in the bath, whether the prophet Mary was a Pharaoh's mistress, is it possible to Eating chametz on this year's Passover, whether to cancel the institution of marriage, whether to cancel the conversion process, whether it's time to cancel the homes You tried and how many more ... ".

"I have no idea what is going on in their heads or how they are still part of religious Zionism ... I ask what is the flag that unites me with Rebecca Lubitz and its like. I am much more connected to the religious public in the country, to repentant, traditional, ultra-Orthodox and secular nationalists. I have to stand under it far more than the muffled flag that is supposed to connect me with Rebecca and her friends. "

It is unknown what the content of Lubitz's class was given to a limited audience, but in response to Rabbi Eliyahu's attack, the rabbinic claimant quoted a midrash, which included an imaginary account of Moshe Rabbeinu's birth of a woman who married Yocheved his aunt, a Torah prohibition, bastard.

Lubitz's Midrash in her reply says that: "He came to the verse" Do not import a bastard of the public into a public house but bring it to the public "(Deut. 23: 3). An embarrassment from the incest except the nida. He said, and that my brother and I are bastards? Moshe's strength. Lt. Day was crying until he seemed to hear a voice saying, "Shut up, that's how I thought." Asked his soul to die. "

Shmuel Space, Director of the Torah and Labor Trustees Movement, responded to Rabbi Eliyahu, claiming that his post was "An advertisement, advertisement, advertisement and essay" written "without first addressing Rebecca Lubitz, without referring to the content of her words (with a provocative title, on things written in Israel) And its sails). He just puts out a bad name. "
