Still cult-y after all these years

 

Checking in with a leader of long-running local post-cult support group

 

One Jewish group that has straddled the line between religion and cult is Lev Tahor. The group, founded by Rabbi Shlomo Helbrans, who since has died, has become most notorious for cloaking women and girls over 3 years old in black, head-to-toe, burqa-like coverings โ€” and for repeated brushes with legal authorities, most recently involving the arrest of a Lev Tahor member for kidnapping two of Rabbi Helbransโ€™ grandchildren, after their mother โ€” his daughter โ€” tried to remove them from the group after she objected to the forced marriage of her 13-year-old daughter.

Who Is Lev Tahor, the 'Jewish Taliban'?

 

First and foremost, it bears saying that any comparison between this movement, which the yellow press dubbed "The Jewish Taliban," and the fundamentalist Islamic movement in Afghanistan, is categorically unfair. Lev Tahor is a pious, arguably overly pious, group of Jews. The Taliban has been associated with extreme violence and destruction in pursuit of imposing its views on the people under their control.

 

In fact, the only reason the Israeli press dubbed the group the โ€œJewish Talibanโ€ is that the women of Lev Tahor clad themselves in black robes from head to toe, which is how the Taliban prescribe women should appear, if appear they must.

 

Lev Tahor, presently consisting of some 250 members, gets its name - literally โ€œPure Heartโ€ - from the Biblical passage: ืดCreate in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within meืด (Psalms 51:10). That well describes the philosophy of Lev Tahor leader Shlomo Helbrans, who says the group aspires to attain the utmost purity by shedding the corrupting influences that, he says, pollute mainstream ultra-Orthodox groups, let alone other forms of Judaism.

In 2007, media outlets began commenting on Ronson and actress Lindsay Lohan, who were seen being affectionate in public. Several newspapers, including The Times and the Los Angeles Times, published opinion pieces describing their relationship as romantic.[29][30][31] Lohan refrained from commenting on the nature of their relationship, stating through her publicist that she "wants to keep her private life private."[30] Ronson stated in a July 2010 interview with The Times that she loves Lohan as a human being but the paparazzi attention grew to be too much.[32]

 

In June 2011, when Ronson was pictured with music producer David Foster's daughter, actress and writer Erin Foster, several media outlets reported that Ronson and Foster were a couple.[33][34] Ronson has never commented on the relationship other than to state she is not single.[35]
