According to the law, so it is. The law determines that...

("It is only just that a daughter should be eligible to be a stubborn and rebellious child, ...but it is a decree of Scripture: 'a son and not a daughter'" - Sanhedrin 69b; and: "It would be right that these should in the future be in the Garden of Eden in the knowledge of God—for they are righteous" - Rabbi Judah Halevi, The Kuzari, Fifth Discourse, 20, 150; and: "It is a tradition among them…that they originate from Jewish seed…it is only just that they are Jews, but they are a rabble of refugees…" - Mendele Mocher Sforim, The Travels of Benjamin the Third, IX, 60; and: "Our artists, as those with an additional soul—surely it is right and proper that they should also excel in subtlety of sense and feeling" - Bialik, The Pure Art, Beitza 16a)
