Sephardi Chief Rabbi of Israel Yitzhak Yosef has said that the mental faculties of secular Jews who eat unkosher food are "impaired," and therefore it is "difficult for them to comprehend things."
His comments were released by Israel's Channel 13 on Sunday.
The rabbi added that, "I observe everything happening within the secular community. They are in a state of jeopardy. They do not find satisfaction in life; everything is driven by the desires of this world."
"They are poor souls...they are jealous of us. They see the haredi sector, with its holidays and children, it is all jealousy," the rabbi continued. "And the hate is developed from jealousy." He also called on religious organizations to promote the ultra-Orthodox lifestyle to secular Israelis.
Opposition outrage by chief rabbi's comments
His statements have sparked a political uproar, with strong condemnations coming from the opposition.

Opposition leader MK Yair Lapid commented that Yosef has misrepresented his role, saying, "he is not the Chief Rabbi of Israel but rather the rabbi of a vocal minority that condemns millions of Jews who serve in the army, risk their lives, work, and support this nation. In one aspect, he is correct - they felt somewhat foolish tonight when they realized they are the ones funding his salary."
Yisrael Beytenu chairman MK Avigdor Liberman, also commented, "The sole foolishness with your statements is the fact that the secular public is funding and paying a salary to someone as uninformed as you." A member of his party, MK Yulia Malinovsky, added, "Based on Chief Rabbi Yosef's statements, even consuming kosher food alone doesn't ensure profound wisdom."
