• Old women as the link between the generations -- The dual meaning of religiosity: Women, men, and morality -- Between woman and God -- From the female perspective -- Sacralizing the feminine: Food preparation as a religious activity -- The liberation of widowhood: From the private to the public -- Ritual expertise in the modern world.

• By analyzing the rituals, daily experiences, life-stories, and non-verbal gestures of Jewish women from Kurdistan and Yemen now living in Jerusalem, Sered discloses stategies these women have used to circumvent the patriarchal institutions of Judaism and to develop their own traditions within Torah Judaism.
