Legendary rabbi’s right in charge (6)
I believe the answer is:
iconic
'legendary' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'rabbi's right in charge' is the wordplay.
'rabbi's right' becomes 'icon' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'in charge' becomes 'ic' (abbreviation for 'in charge').
'icon'+'ic'='ICONIC'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for iconic that I've seen before include "Like a symbol/image" , "Symbolic, emblematic" , "Like a venerated image" , "Symbolically representative" , "Relating to religious pictures" .)
