Rabbi Zalman Nechemia Goldberg A"H - Av Beis Din of Supreme Rabbinical Court in Jerusalem Denounces International Beit Din

 


Loose translation of above letter:
27 Kislev 5775

I hereby notify that I have no connection whatsoever with IBD [International Beit Din] to free Agunas & whomever is associating my name with them is completely false. I have already written about Gd forbid annulling marriages thereby causing married wife’s to birth bastards. It is strictly incumbent to be warned and careful against any association with IBD [International Beit Din] which can’t be trusted for anything, and indeed ANY Gett from IBD is suspect to be not in accordance with Halacha and whomever has any power or influence with IBD to protest and nullify their thoughts is highly encouraged to do so and they will merit blessings.

I hereby undersign and affix my signature as Dayan & Av Bet Din: Zalman Nechemya Goldberg.

This is not the right path and not even the right city. The prohibition against adultery is not like the laws of mourning, for which we would say that the law follows the lenient opinion.
