Not all werewolves toss away their mortal upbringing and discount their old faiths just because they discover spirits are real. In many Jewish traditions, a hazzan is a lay-person who leads the synagogue in prayer through song. So long as there have been practitioners of the Jewish faith, and so long as there have been Cahalith, there has been the Lodge of the Hazzan.
Among Jewish werewolves, the Cahalith have acted is demi-clergy, helping Jewish-born werewolves interpret the Torah in ways that made sense with Uratha culture and condition. The Cahalith, as Lorekeepers and performers, fit with the Jewish requirements for the position of hazzan, even if many werewolves considered themselves too “unclean” to ever be fit to serve as rabbis. Having a hazzan isn’t the same as having a real rabbi to guide the people in tradition, but as many Jewish Uratha are fond of saying, “it is enough.”
