Rabbinők, és Rabbi Regina Jonas (1902-1944)

From the perspective of Jewish law, the Conservative movement's decisions to count women in a minyan (the quorum necessary to conduct a public prayer service) and to permit Jews to drive to synagogue on the Sabbath were far more radical innovations than allowing women to be ordained as rabbis. Yet, the Jewish Theological Seminary's 1983 decision to ordain women provoked fierce attacks, not only from the Orthodox but from many traditional figures in the Conservative movement as well, particularly among the seminary's Talmud faculty.
