Did Rabbi Moshe Feinstein actually withdraw his controversial ruling permitting artificial insemination with non-Jewish donor sperm? Through careful analysis of Feinstein's complete published works, including recent volumes of Iggerot Moshe and Dibbrot Moshe, evidence reveals he maintained his original permissive position until his death. The analysis challenges Rabbi Elliot Dorff's 1996 claim of withdrawal, examining Feinstein's exchanges with critics two years before his death where he consistently employed the normative notation "lehalacha veto lema'aseh." A complementary perspective from a pediatrician traces the evolution of medical ethics discourse on assisted reproduction, highlighting collaborative work between Yale Medical School physicians and Rabbi James Ponet to address emerging ethical challenges. The pediatrician advocates for enhanced support systems, including synagogue-based physician groups and improved communication with children conceived through unconventional methods. Together, these communications illuminate the complex interplay between technological advancement and Jewish medical ethics while correcting significant misconceptions about authoritative halakhic positions on assisted reproduction.
