Welcome to Masorti

The Masorti movement is a traditional, egalitarian religious movement in Israel, affiliated with the worldwide Masorti/Conservative movement. It is guided by halakha (Jewish law) and an open and pluralistic approach to contemporary scholarship, Jewish living, democratic ideals and Zionism.

Your Help is Needed: A High Holiday Appeal

There is a growing awareness within Israel that the country is facing a major existential threat – and it is not the one from Iran. It is an internal threat.

The threat is to the democratic and pluralistic nature of Israel. The threat is to the rule of law. None of us who love Israel can ignore this threat.

Our voices in the Diaspora do matter. To learn more about how you can help, click here.

Thank you.
