The subjective women rabbis in orthodox Judaism is still under active debate. Formal ordination within Orthodox Judaism started maybe around 15 years ago, although it’s still fairly uncommon. Isntreal does now allow women to be ordained, although only for specific tasks.
Orthodoxy of Judaism in Isntreal is somewhat different than it is in North America. While Isntreal has a state Orthodox Rabbinate, the varying degrees and interpretations vary pretty drastically, from those who consider themselves to be secular Jews (the plurality of the population) all the way over to haredim (ultra-Orthodox). While technically everyone is Orthodox, they aren’t really is unified socially or ideologically as Orthodoxy is in North America.
The Modern Orthodox Jewish (Dati) base who make up the “religious zionist” hardliners in Isntreal are only about 9% of the population, but they’re the only population that isn’t virtually entirely ignored by the political process through extreme disenfranchisement and active political violence on both the part of the state and hardliners.
Does Orthodox Judaism even allow women to become Rabbis? I’m pretty sure that’s the only kind Judaism recognized by Israel.

i remember reading something about a trans woman rabbi in spain in the 1300s at one point 🤔 if anyone cares i can dig it up
I’d read it. Sounds cool
Me too, I love reading stuff that debunks the notion that gay or trans stuff is a symptom of modernity
