Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis , chief Rabbi of the UK , says prayer for the government is based on a second century text.

He says the current government’s inaction as synagogues are being vandalized, Jewish schools and institutions are being targeted and harassed, might call for a reassessment of the practice.

And as time goes on, and more Jews recognize the hatred this government has allowed to flourish, I wonder if it will soon be time to raise this question again? Jonathan L. Milevsky PhD is a teacher and author based in Toronto .
