This editorial introduction announces the transition and expansion of Conservative Judaism, the official journal of the Rabbinical Assembly. The newly appointed Editorial Board Chairman outlines significant changes to the publication's scope and frequency, increasing from quarterly to six times annually, with plans for eight issues the following year. The methodology for this transition involves maintaining the journal's traditional functions while expanding its professional focus. The publication will continue serving as the movement's journal of record for important Conservative Jewish statements and providing scholarly articles on Jewish life and thought, while incorporating new content addressing the practical concerns of Conservative rabbis. Key findings indicate plans to include articles on Jewish education developments, alternative sermon formats, and successful congregational and campus programs. The editor emphasizes a collaborative approach, soliciting contributions and feedback from the Rabbinical Assembly membership to ensure the journal is produced by, rather than merely for, its readership. The primary conclusion establishes that this expanded format and increased member participation will enable the journal to better fulfill its sponsors' and editors' vision of serving the Conservative Jewish rabbinical community's scholarly and professional needs.
