Women rabbis making history in Germany
Jewish life in Germany includes older established communities, people who live a conspicuously secular lifestyle and those expressing a young, self-confident identity.

Emperor Constantine s decree in 321 was intended to politically integrate Jewish people in their communities. That still applies today, yet Jews remain a rarity in German politics. Of course, there is a Jewish state minister, a mayor and a state parliamentarian here and there, but with a total community of 200,000, Jews remain a minority.
