Bourke granted Barnett Levy a license for dramatic performances, with a restriction that he should confine himself to the representation of such pieces only as had been licensed in England by the Lord Chamberlain.

Brown migrated from Poland in Since the days of European settlement in Australia, Jews have enjoyed formal equality before the law and have not been subject to civil disabilities or other forms of state-sponsored antisemitism excluding them from full participation in public life.
Jews have been active contributors in science, art, and literature, and in the government of the colonial and Commonwealth eras, with a number attaining prominent public offices, including several governors-general.

Former Prime Minister Bob Hawke , "one of Israel's most vocal supporters", was also considered for attack. The Australian Jewish community tends to experience surges in attacks on synagogues, Jewish schools and institutions and violence against persons during times of hostility in the Arab—Israeli conflict , [42] which, however, has been significantly less pronounced than in Western Europe and North America.

There are also Sephardi congregations. There had been short-lived efforts to establish Reform congregations as early as the s.
However, under the leadership of Ada Phillips, a sustained liberal congregation, Temple Beth Israel was established in Melbourne. Subsequently, another synagogue linked to the Reform Movement , Temple Emanuel , was established in Sydney in Following these two congregations, a number of other Liberal synagogues have been founded in other cities. Since Conservative Masorti services have been held as an alternative service usually in the Neuweg, the smaller second synagogue within Temple Emanuel, Woollahra, Sydney. The congregation appointed its first rabbi, Ehud Bandel in In , the first humanistic Jewish congregation, known as Kehilat Kolenu, was established in Melbourne with links to the cultural Jewish youth movement Habonim Dror.
Later in , a similar congregation was established in Sydney, known as Ayelet HaShachar. The services are loosely based on the Humanistic Jewish movement in the United States and the musical-prayer group Nava Tehila in Israel. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
