Re: MADONNA >> Nuevo disco - "Confessions On A Dancefloor"
09 October - Song 'Isaac' already stirs controversy
Word that Madonna's upcoming album includes a paean to a 16th-century Jewish mystic has prompted the rabbis who guard his legacy to accuse the pop idol of sacrilege and hint at divine punishment.
The
Confessions on a Dance Floor collection includes a song titled
Isaac -- in reference, entertainment media say, to Rabbi Isaac Luria, founder of the Kabbalah school of mysticism which counts Madonna, 47, as one of its devotees.
The custodians of Luria's tomb and seminary in the northern Israeli town of Safed accused her of breaking a taboo.
"There is a prohibition in Jewish law against using the holy name of our master, the Sage Isaac, for profit," the seminary's director, Rabbi Rafael Cohen, told the Israeli newspaper Maariv on Sunday.
"This is an inappropriate act, and one can feel only pity at the punishment that she (Madonna) will receive from Heaven. The Sage Isaac is holy and pure, and immodest people cannot sing about him," he said.
Catholic-born Madonna, famed for her racy lyrics and on-stage antics, has drawn frequent censure from ultra-Orthodox Jews who say her embrace of Kabbalah debases their religion.
Deemed especially provocative was Madonna's music video for
Die Another Day, in which she wove phylacteries around her arm, a custom usually reserved for Jewish men, before escaping from an electric chair on which Hebrew letters spelling out one of the 72 names of God appeared.
"This kind of woman wreaks an enormous sin upon the Kabbalah," said Rabbi Yisrael Deri, caretaker of Luria's tomb. (source:

*********************************************
Todo esto porque Madonna ha escrito en su disco una cancion Isaac.
Se acusa a la idola del pop (Madonna) de sacrilegio y la alude a castigo divino.
Pues que El Rabino Rafael Cohen, uno de los custodios de la tumba de Isaac Luria fundador de la escuela de la Kabbalah, ha acusado a Madonna de romper una regla-tabú diciendo que en la ley judia se prohibe mal usar el sagrado nombre del Maestro para beneficio de si misma....esto es un acto inapropiado y solamente uno puede sentirle lastima por el castigo que ella reciba del cielo. El Sage Isaac es santo y puro y la gente indecente no puede cantar sobre el.
