So...does that mean his mom's mom's mom's mom was Jewish? Or can it be any ancestor from his mother's side?
I'm Jewish but this is how I was taught about this whole Halacha rule. The mother has to be born Jewish or converted to Judaism before birth. If the mother's mother wasn't Jewish, then she wasn't born Jewish so the child would not be a Jew.
