Good that lies beyond the fringe

Jewish Chronicle, January 20 2006

This is about a letter. The epistle (which was published in last week’s JC), was written by a chap called Bryan from Manchester. Bryan had been to the Limmud event in Nottingham with his family and had had a great time. But there are great times and good times, and Bryan obviously felt the need to reassure his more Orthodox acquaintances that Limmud had been a properly Jewish affair. So, being a nice man, Bryan told friends and readers that it was indeed formidably kosher. There was even, at Nottingham, “something for Jews on the fringes of Judaism”.
