The High Court ordered the Chief Rabbinate to ordain a rabbi in its name who will grant a kosher certificate to restaurant owned by a Messianic Jew in Ashdod. This rabbi will act in place of Rabbi Yosef Sheinin, who refused to grant a kosher certificate to the establishment.
In doing so, the judges rejected the petitioners' claim that Sheinin was in contempt of court for not yet issuing a kosher certificate despite being ordered to do so six months ago. (Kobi Nahshoni)
