Title

Is there Room for Zoom on Shabbat

Description

One solution has been the livestreaming of online services. The UK Masorti rabbis were asked if streaming Shabbat services could be allowed on an exceptional basis and as a temporary response to the crisis. Their response was that streaming on Shabbat is not permitted, but that other solutions are encouraged: streaming weekday services – including saying kaddish without the presence of a physical minyan, study sessions, Friday afternoon Kabbalat Shabbat services and Pesach sedarim (the prohibition against using electricity on festivals is less stringent than on Shabbat).
