Early and personal life
Early and personal life
Tsedaka is originally a Samaritan from the city of Holon, where she was born in 1975. Although the Chief Rabbinate of Israel recognizes Samaritans as ethnically Jewish (i.e., Israelite), the historic question of the community's Halakhic Jewishness has been controversial. At the age of 18, she initiated her conversion to Judaism, along with her sisters. Her given name is Sofi, a name her father intended to reflect her status as the last of his daughters (sof, lit. "end" in Hebrew; sofi, lit. "final"); when she finalized her conversion, she was asked to take a Jewish name in addition, which she did in adopting the second name "Sarah" (שָׂרָה). Later, after becoming fully Jewish at the age of 21, she married Roni Azran, an Israeli Jew. The couple had a daughter in 1997 before divorcing in 2002. Tsedaka also has a son, born in 2011.
