Question
Can a daughter of a covert Jewish father and Jewish mother marry a Cohen?
Answer
ב"ה
Shalom
The Shulchan Aruch- Code of Jewish Law (אבן העזר ז:כא) explicitly says that the daughter born of a convert Jewish father and a Jewish born mother may marry a Cohen. However, as in all marriages, it is the officiating Rabbi who will make the necessary verifications to give the final okay.
