The Rabbis’ Primary Role In Judaism On Purpose™: a guide by the side rather than a sage on the stage

Given the mission of Judaism On Purpose™ A Pathway Meaning – is solely (and soul-ie) to ‘re-ignite personalized individualized meaning IN one’s life to matter INside out through Judaic connection again as a stepping stone for return, the emphasis of the Rabbi’s role is that of spiritual resource as a concierge of meaning© rather than that of spiritual leader. The priority of concierge of meaning allows focus and concentration on meaning IN the individual members life – without the duties of fund raising, being a CEO, life cycle events (which are optional), etc…

           One Rabbi of blessed memory relayed to me that in Rabbinic ordination, the Rabbi is correct even when he is wrong. If he was correct, this puts the Rabbi in the position of being like The Pope in Catholicism   – being infallible – the final ‘answer’ man or woman’  And yet per Torah – the Israelites, the Hebrews – thus Jews (not the Rabbis alone) are to be a nation of priests unto Me contradicts this ordination. This premise of Rabbinic infallibility –sola scriptura – seems  to be to the task - limited to the chosen assignment for all Jews not just the Rabbinate–to be a light unto all nations. And completely outsourcing completely to the Rabbinic would be dereliction of duty.

          The Rabbi as a spiritual resource – a concierge of meaning does not have to bear the burden or pretense of a spiritual leader’s infallibility in Judaism. In Judaism On Purpose™ A Pathway To Meaning, the Rabbi’s focus – is as teacher, as resource – a concierge of meaning focused on 1 thing: – reigniting individualized personalized meaning IN one’s life to matter INside out through Judaic connection again – as a stepping stone for return for return- the Homecoming. The  yoke of Rabbi Sola Scriptura Burger King Judaism isn’t on the menu – take out or dining in – thus minimizing or relieving the Rabbi of being in a ‘pickle’ with Synagogue politics.
