What happened to Torah? We are a Torah nation not a Kabbalah nation. Secondly Rabbis once outlawed Kabbalah as magic and even modern Third Rabbis say that the type of exploitation modern Kabbalah cults are doing, it is magic. So much for "for there is no magic in the tents of Jaacob" Oh but wearing modest clothes is the only concern? (She should). Baalak would love this.

And his hypocrisy has no limits . Telling that Madonna should wear "modest" clothes , while himself adores to see it .

Josh, I am sure that if he was writing to you he would address it as Torah values. Although your point is a good point, we cannot ignore who the letter was written to.

a personalised letter, written in a way that Madonna can relate to. We'll see if it has any effect; and if so, shame on those "Rabbis" who have been teaching her kabbalah until now and not managed to change her.

is he suffering from AH syndrome?

Madonna should wear what she pleases. The Rabbis should wear what they please. Of all the nonsense in our religion the Kabbala is the biggest load of it and it is insulting to the intelligence of normal folks.

Madonna, like many celebrities, may well be a victim of those who prey on the naivete and ignorance of so many. There are celebrity rabbis and there are for-profit businesses that take millions of dollars from well meaning people who are seeking religion and spirituality. Is the founder of the Kabbalah Centre even a rabbi: Did he even marry a Jewish woman (or did he marry his non-Jewish secretary, abandoning his wife)? Is there any legitimacy at all to the Kabbalah Centre? Do they spread Torah, like www.aish.com, or do they spread hocus-pocus based on false notions, from the Other Side, as to what kabbalah is all about? Is there any reporter or journalist who will do even one investigative story on the Kabbalah Centre? Why is everyone apparently so afraid of this group?

Welcome to israelistan. You jews are no different from arabs after all.

Who cares about Madonna. There are many people around the world who couldn't care less about her. Even so, she is a Catholic and she should respect the religion she was born in. Kabbalah she is supposed to practise if not the real Kabbalah. What a waste of an article.

There is nothing wrong with True Kabbalah. The problem is the Kabbalah Center and Rabbi Berg. The problem is no major orthodox rabbi or true Kabbalist endorses the center or Rabbi Berg.

Come on. It's not Torah I ever heard them teaching...all Rabinnic additions and prayers which by the way ARE kabbalah. You may not have noticed but they are written using uincantation methods taken from Kabbalah. They even admit it comes from Babylon. Home of the Magi preists who kidnapped Israel leaders.

It's magic. Magic in the tents of Jaacob brings curses on us all. Proof is in the pudding. How many crazy Kabbalist are there? In fact the danger of it is so well known that it is said that if you study it before 40 you could go crazy. We know in Devarim G-d said not to add a word or subtract so what is this book and how could something Holy bring insanity curses with it? After all G-d said if you chose life he will protect you from such curses. Clearly it is not "chose life". So yes there is something wrong. Just walk down the street and youll see mad kabbalists. The writing is on the wall. The Rabbis were right once to have banned it.

Madonna should honor the rabbi's request and dress according to her true beliefs and values, not to sell tickets. Walk the talk, Madonna... We will see what she really believes when she steps on stage. It will be revealed in her actions, words, and dress.

let madonna give her performance..she's an iconic performer..she's well recieved and recognized even given honours...she's an actress everything is just a job that give her millions.so why care?only the kaballah centres got her money through her generous contribution..leave her alone!let her viewers and audiences enjoy...just closed your eyes and ears so you wont be able to see what she is wearing...only ih these rabbis are not fantasizing how well she will be dress during her performance .bwahahahaa!!!!bwahahhha!!!! respect what she believe in after her performance there will be other issues popping out.

You obviously don't know anything about Israel. But don't worry. The vast majority of Israelis are secular and pay little or no attention to pronouncements from rabbis. There. Now do you feel better?

Maddona please dress modestly? Oh Pah-lease what does he expect the queen of pop to wear a sack like those dancers on the Jerusalem bridge, shes 51 has the body of 21 year old , honey flaunt it if youve got it, and sing out loud "like a virgin" this is Israel not Iran ..

Did any wethouder , priester , pastoor , enz , not issue such "raadgevingen" ? One or some fools don't make a "stan" of Israel

AND NOT THE ROMAN goddess of perversions DESECRATES HOLY LAND

is that a sort of barbecue (Kebab) party?

just like the honorable rabbi has a right to ask madonna to wear something, she has the right to no follow it. It would go be inline with her kaballah though.

Israelis deserve entertainment as much as any other country. Why should they be deprived of the full Madonna treatment, scanty clothes and all. If Madonna wears clothes from head to foot and a sheitel, Israelis should be compensated with something of similar entertainment value. How about the good Rebbe swimming with the dolphins in the Mediterranean in his most elaborate religious garb? That would be fun to see!! No cheating: he would have to wear his shtreimel and tzizis!

What a load of BS, Madonna the queen of pop will wear what she feels like , this is tel aviv not tehran ! Like a virgin .....

Madonna was awesome!! Got into the Golden Ring area....amazing! Come back again soon!

You are absolutely wrong! She may be 51 years old, but she certainly does not have the body of a 21 year old. Most 21 year old women do not come close to her physical strength, stamina and endurance. Furthermore, the vast majority of all women period, do not have such an incredibly sculpted body. It requires many, many years of hard work.
