The "Langer Affair," where Chief Rabbi Shlomo Goren freed two young people from the taint of mamzerut, became the State of Israel's most divisive halakhic dispute. We will examine this dispute from a halakhic, sociological and political lens, and uncover some fascinating ironies and examples of how Orthodox society has evolved since the early 1970s.
