The founder of Hiddush, which battles for religious pluralism, Reform Rabbi Uri Regev, called the ruling historic. "It is perhaps ridiculous that Israeli citizens have to get married by correspondence in El Salvador, but the reality depriving hundreds of thousands of Israelis of the right to marry is ridiculous."

One of the lawyers in the case, Daniel Korenblit, said the ruling had its technical and administrative aspects but was also a substantive ruling, opening the door to large numbers of people who in the past had to expend great efforts to marry an easier alternative. "It is absolutely a step forward along the path to civil marriage in Israel," he said.
