Timeline

1921

The organization's mission is to take the stories of the Torah and show that they are relevant in the 21st century.

1969

Rabbi Amichai Yehuda Lau-Lavie (born April 22, 1969) is a social entrepreneur, human rights activist and LGBT, conservative rabbi, founder and spiritual leader of the Lab/Shul community in New York.

Lau-Lavie is the fourth son of Naphtali Lau-Lavie and Joan Lau-Lavie (from Lunzer).

His brother, Binyamin Lau, heads the 929: Bible Together project.

His uncle, Israel Meir Lau, served as the chief rabbi of Tel Aviv, and his cousin, David Lau, is the Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi in Israel.

Lau grew up in Ramat Gan, Bnei Brak, New York and Jerusalem.

1986

He graduated from Hartman High School for Boys in Jerusalem in 1986.

1987

He continued his studies at the Har Etzion Yeshiva, and enlisted in the Israel Defense Forces in 1987 as part of the integration program of the Ein Tzurim Yeshiva, where he served paratrooper, as a combat medic, and as a medic instructor in the national squad.

He worked in the field of nonformal education in the Gesher organization, institutes of Jewish Zionist education, and the Beit Midrash Elul in Jerusalem.

1996

Between the years 1996–2005, Lau participated in reality shows produced by Rafik Yedidya, "Across Israel" (1996),; "Cosmic Optimism" (1999), which aired on Channel 2; and "The Eleventh Commandment" (2004) which aired on Channel 10.

On June 23, 2021, Lau participated in Israel's first television LGBTI Pride program on Israel's Network 13.

Lau is a sperm donor and father co-parenting with Alice, Ezra and Charlotte-Hallel in New York.

1999

In 1999, he founded Storahtelling, a ceremonial theater group that employs the ancient tradition of Torah reading alternating with a translation in the local language, and renews the traditional Torah reading ceremony as a social political theater.

In 1999, he founded the theater group StorahTelling, an organization that took on the challenge of giving a new interpretation to Jewish identity through the Torah.

The name connects the words "story," "Torah," and "Haggadah."

2009

In 2009, Lau founded Lab/Shul, an egalitarian and experienced Jewish community laboratory in New York, which he still heads (as of 2021).

About a decade later, in 2009, Lau established an egalitarian and experimental Jewish community in New York under the name Lab/Shul—a combination of lab (lab) and synagogue (shul).

The home page of the community website reads: "Lab/Shul accepts people of all races, religions, beliefs, gender expressions, sexual orientations, countries of origin, ages, abilities, families and shades—with an open heart."

2010

Lau completed his undergraduate studies in 2010 in New York.

2016

In 2016, he completed his rabbinical studies and a master's degree in education at the Conservative movement's Jewish Theological Seminary of America in New York.

2017

In 2017, Lau published a position paper called "JOY", which is based on a proposal to reinterpreting "resident alien" (ger toshav) status for marriages of Jews with members of other religions, who do not convert but choose to adopt Jewish elements in their relationship.

Lau explains the need his proposed changes in the context of maintaining Judaism: "A couple comes to me—the woman is Jewish and the man isn't. They want to get married but he doesn't want to convert. They want to be part of our community, to raise their children as Jews. If I tell them 'no,' we've lost them and their children, and that's it."

While an out gay man, Lau does not align himself with the LGBT community in Israel.

2019

For example, in an interview with Glatz in July 2019, he went against the words of the Minister of Education, Rafi Peretz, regarding conversion therapies.

Lau said "there are people whose conversion therapies are their choice, but as the Minister of Education in Israel of 2019, this is an opinion that does not reflect who we are as a people, as a public and as a Jew."

In an opinion piece he published at the time in WDG, his words were even sharper when he said, "When the Minister of Education of the State of Israel preaches the success of conversion therapies—in ignorance, malice and out of a conservative and dark position—he bears responsibility for the blood of my brothers in Israel and in the world who crave self-love and love for others and instead receive a cruel message."
