For reference, I think the referenced “old Jewish story” is The Oven of Akhnai. Though it doesn’t particularly matter for the present discussion, I will note that the disagreement was between one rabbi and a bunch of other rabbis (rather than between members of a congregation); since the story was also written by the rabbis, this makes it analogous to our Marbury v. Madison.
(though it would also not be very surprising if the story has multiple versions/settings)
