THE ORTHODOX JEWISH PRO POLYGAMY PAGE By EMES L’YAAKOV

This web page is dedicated to an open analysis and review of the Cherem Rabbeinu Gershom and the issue of polygamy for Orthodox Jews. All discussion is based on the following premises:

G-d is the creator
G-d gave to the Jews the entire Torah, both oral and written
Chazal, our sages, accurately passed down to us the correct and binding interpretation of theTorah
The Halachah (traditional Jewish Law) is absolutely binding on us today as at any other time
Only those steeped in Jewish Law and tradition and Torah study can properly interpret the laws of
the Torah
Just as we must follow the Torah itself, we must follow the enactments made by our Rabbis to guard
or strengthen Torah observance or to protect society.

Therefore, even though the basic purpose and premise of this site is contrary to common practice, it is
based on the highest level of respect for and obedience to Torah and Tradition and the halachic process.

For instance, an argument that polygamy is good for society would be a valid argument only if it could be
shown that polygamy were allowed by the Halachah.
