Le’Dor Acharon [opposition by the Agudath HaRabanim to the proposal by Judah Epstein concerning the Agunah problem]. * And: Judah Epstein. Le’Shailath Ha’Agunah [a response to the above, along with related history].
Two volumes. Original boards. 8vo.
New York: 1937 and 1940.
Polemic endorsed by some one thousand rabbis world-wide opposed to the proposal advanced by the Conservative Rabbi Judah (Louis) Epstein seeking to solve the Agunah problem. Epstein's proposal was that prior to the marriage service, a husband would appoint his wife as an agent to execute a divorce on his behalf. Thus, if in the future the husband went missing or refused to grant a Get, the wife could, in effect, divorce herself.
