For the discussion of the heritage of the Divine-Embodied-as-Female in Judaism, also called Goddess Judaism. Members of this list are comfortable with the statement:"Goddess is a Jewish tradition." Discussion includes history, archeology, and other research verifying the presence of Goddess worship among peoples in the Ancient Near East considered forebears of present-day Jews; woman-centered midrash; portrayal of the feminine divine in Jewish mysticism; empowerment of women in their personal lives and in religious observance; and ways to incorporate these ideas into modern Jewish practice. See "related link" under Group Email Addresses for example of liturgy.
