Edward Feld

Edward Feld, born 1943, is a Conservative rabbi and author. He served as the Senior Editor of the Conservative Rabbinical Assembly's High Holiday maḥzor Maḥzor Lev Shalem (2010),[1] which was the first Conservative Jewish liturgical publication to include passages aimed at the needs of gay couples.[2] Feld currently serves as the Senior Editor of the Rabbinical Assembly's forthcoming Shabbat & Festivals prayer book Siddur Lev Shalem, a follow-up to the maḥzor preceding it, similarly laced with commentaries and contemporarily-sensitive alternative textual options.

Feld's other works include The Spirit of Jewish Renewal: Finding Faith After the Holocaust (Jewish Lights Publishing: 2003),[3] Joy, Despair, and Hope: Reading Psalms (Cascade Books: 2013),[4] and many articles, including "Towards an Aggadic Judaism" (Conservative Judaism Journal: 29, 3; 1975).

Rabbi Feld is married to educator, activist, playwright, poet and author Merle Feld, and the two have a daughter, Lisa, and a son, Uri.[5][6][7]
