Top Document: soc.culture.jewish FAQ: Worship, Conversion, Intermarriage (5/12)

Question 10.1: Does Halacha (Jewish law) permit intermarriage?
Answer:
According to post-Sinaitic Jewish law, a marriage can be contracted
only between two Jews, so an intermarriage is not recognized as a
Jewish marriage.
In some countries, the progressive Jewish movements recognize civil
marriages as Jewishly valid, irrespective of religion.
