Biography

Lindsey’s research focuses on modern Jewish women and different facets of their religious lives. Her current projects include an investigation into the possibly magical nature of some contemporary Jewish women’s practices, a study of the first three women to receive Orthodox rabbinic ordination, and a gender-based reappraisal of Haym Soloveitchik’s famous article, ‘Rupture and Reconstruction’ (1994). Lindsey also teaches at the London School of Jewish Studies (LSJS) and is active in interfaith textual study, particularly Scriptural Reasoning.
